Have any other Blogger users noticed any problems with the BlogThis! bookmarklet lately? I have and I’ve finally figured out what the exact problem is. If I use the bookmarklet and I’m am not logged into Blogger is asks me to log-in (as expected)
and then I get the usual BlogThis! window with the correct title of the item I’m attempting to blog (sometimes, as theis example didn’t give me a title,) but without and post content.
However, when I use BlogThis! and I am logged into the Blogger system, everything works as it should, giving me both the correct title and the correct link in the body of the post.
Does anyone have any ideas as to a solution? I’m using Firefox and I have reinstalled the bookmarklet several times. Reinstallation has failed to solve the problem.
