Safari & IE Blogger Bug

When I’d log onto Blogger to publish these blogs, I’d notice that sometimes I had formatting controls (bold, italics, links, etc.) and sometimes not. I’m always so rushed I blow it off and have been accepting the imperfections in publishing I’ve been getting. This morning, I finally figured out that their appearance is a function of the browser I’m using. Specifically, when I’d use Firefox I had the controls; when I would use Safari, I did not.

If you’re on a Mac and using Blogger to write and publish your blogs, I recommend you use Firefox for now and use Safari only if you don’t need to tweak anything in the text. Internet Explorer 5.2.3 also suffers the same problem as Safari.
