Apparently, yes -- it calls up the /mt/mt-xmlrpc.cgi to confirm the
login and fetch the list of blogs that the account can access, and I
saw the list go by correctly.

which reminds me: the actual posting interface does not allow for
selecting the blog or setting the title ;)

It's difficult for me to do this as it's my one and only computer and
space is limited.  I have access to another computer, but it's running
1.1 straight out of Mandrake 9.0.

I'm mostly afraid that I didn't follow the install instructions for
jslib correctly since their page only says you have to unpack the
tarball, but never says /where/ to unpack it.  Their tarball is rooted
at /jslib, but when I unpacked that in chrome, other apps claimed to
not find it, having looked in chrome/packages/core ... so I renamed
jslib to packages/core --- I have zero conceptual understanding of
how the chrome features work or what they do; all I know is that this
blog-from-the-browser interface is a killer combination.

For the record, I also downloaded the fixed nsXML file, but using
either it or the distribution version had identical results.
