Several times I have | lost my work because either the browser crashed or the website | wasn't responding when I was done and wanted to save my article. | Real text editors or word processors have an auto-save function | that allows me to recover and continue work after a crash, so | why shouldn't a web browser? Of course I could write my article | in a real text editor, and submit it using cut-n-paste to the | browser, but I'm too lazy to switch back and forth. Yes I know what you mean. I hate when this happens. Unfortunately I've got no idea how to get around this except cut-n-paste from a text editor. What we would need (I'm not a programmer so excuse any of my mistakes here) is something like the Blogger API for the 'pedia and a simple stand-alone piece of software that could retrieve and post articles. <snip> regards WojPob <wojtek[at]seti23[dot]org> what burns twice as bright, burns half as long, and you have burnt so very, very brightly roy.
