code push

The code push is starting in a moment. Please comment here if you see anything go wrong, thanks!

When I posted an entry (this one here, if you need to know specifically) from the "post an entry" page in Firefox last night/this morning, I had a devil of a time getting it to properly space instead of just clumping up in one big block of text. I kept having to switch over to the rich text editor, break it up the way I wanted, and switch back to the HTML editor before the entry looked right in the preview window. If I kept writing the post in the HTML editor after that it behaved normally. But if I adjusted any of the privacy/mood/date settings, it would snap right back to the giant block of text when I previewed it and I'd have to toggle editors again to get it looking right.

Hm. Can you check to make sure that you don't have the "don't autoformat" toggled on the update page? (It remembers your last-used setting, so if you posted an entry and checked the don't autoformat, you'll need to uncheck it with your next entry.)

If this was last night, it was well before the code push, so that's the only thing I can think of.

Ahhh. That looks like the culprit. Unless it was just something weird my computer was doing last night, because the whole thing was behaving a bit oddly.
