Testing with safari
On my last post, I was trying to use flock to post a writing to this blog, which is done successfully (and beautifully, even though I still couldn’t post a picture using its web clipboard. To tell you the truth, I was always using my firefox (version 2) to writing my post. Not because I hate Safari, but when it comes to blog posting in WordPress, it sucks.And then yesterday the Apple have upgraded their safari to version 3.1, now I’m trying to use safari to blog posting, and will see the outcome as soon as I finished writing this. 
Thumbnail above is how the posting should appear in my blog, I’ll update you guys how it appear actually in my blog.Update: This is what actually what’s coming out

Yea, I found the same thing. I use a Mac at home and when I post to wordpress using the webpage, it strips all of the line breaks out of my text.
I’m using a third party tool at the moment on there called Ecto which is working well though.
Even the latest builds of webkit still seem to have this bug, which is unfortunate, as I really prefer Safari as far as browsers go.
Although maybe I should give “Flock” a try.
hey April thanks for visiting and commenting, yea this has been bugging me for all this time. I really love safari and wordpress but they can’t seems to connect each other.
I’ll try to download ecto first and see how it goes, thanks for the advice. and did you download flock? how does it goes?
Hi,
Ecto is a Mac application. It is shareware I found out though and expires after 30 days of use.
At the moment I’m using safari still, and I have disabled the Rich Editor in WordPress.
Pity it’s a shareware, I guess I just use firefox for now.
anyway have you use the flock?
Briefly, I tried Flock.
Flock was okay and is based on the mozilla rendering engine if I recall. I didn’t really see any difference in how it rendered pages compared to firefox.
The good news is however that wordpress.com has been upgraded, and safari now works for rich editing.
I did a test post a few days ago and it worked fine.
Hey I didn’t realise that until you mention it out, Thanks April.
If this is working then it would make the live more simpler, but still availability of more than 1 internet browser would meant I have the advantage to use the strongest point of each browser for daily application.
by the way do you happen to have a blog April?
