would love to see the ability to turn on or off comments for a post.
Very interesting and I am off to the Android market now to grab this download. I love the fact I can post a draft while I a mobile and come back later to finish the article. I do not know how many times I thought of something while on the go and forgot about it.
Strange. I received a connection error upon tapping save:
org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserExcwption:expected:START_TAG{null}methodResponse(position:START_TAG (empty)@1:6 in Java.io.InputStreamReader@43e567b0)
Now to be fair I am nunning a custom ROM so this may be the issue.
Custom ROM is not the issue. The same error occurs on a Stock MyTouch 3g from TMobile.
Looks like there’s something going on with your xmlrpc.php file. Check out the errors that are displayed at http://radicaldevelopment.net/xmlrpc.php
Bingo. Fixed the issue and this Android App works GREAT!
V1.1 Seems to fail to download any post or page that’s not strict xhtml.
This is a big issue any tinymce adds tags without a closing slash by default.
Pretty much makes it unusable.
Do you mean posts that are downloaded to the editor, or post preview?
Editor was throwing up an xml error when trying to download the content for editing; and review was displaying a blank screen.
I may have been wrong about the cause, because this appears to be an intermittent issue. As it is working this morning. It may have been that I just upgraded to it yesterday.
So great!. I like it.
