mozilla rich-text buttons
just added some additional blog functionality for us non-IE users (should be more of us after the homeland security folks publicity brought the hammer down on microsoft). Those using mozilla can now markup your entries via the MT web interface. This works under safari as well, except a little differently (ok, a little worse). just added some additional blog functionality for us non-IE users (should be more of us after the homeland security folks publicity brought the hammer down on microsoft).

Anyway, this should be working on IE since it uses browser detection, but pls. ie folks email me with problems if you have them. code for this was

funny you and i apparantly worked on this individually this weekend. it doesnt work in safari, but mozilla is fine. just fyi.
my code is tweaked from what you linked to, as my site doesnt use mt. im using some diff browser detection and methods for writing the buttons out, so the code isnt duplicated for each browser, if you care.

well, it *works* in safari in that it makes the buttons. however, the buttons are relatively useless, since you can't select things, and when you create a url or whatever, it pulls the entire content of the textfield into the tags e.g. if my text was
this link is cool
then pressed URL, it would look like
this link is cool
but it doesn't work to select, for example, just the 'link' to appear in the tags. frustrating.
there's a good app that handles this stuff via xml-rpc called ECTO at kung-foo.tv (for windows + mac)
