Hiya,

First time using Mozblog :)

Unfortunately it doesn't work :(

Gory details:

System: win98, Moz 1.3, via dialup.

1) Downloaded http://mozblog.mozdev.org/nsXmlRpcClient.js and put it into 
the components folder.  Overwrote the old file.  Noted with some 
trepidation that the new file is smaller than the old one.

2) Downloaded Mozblog6.17 via the 'click to install' button on the Mozblog 
home page.

3) Restarted Mozilla.

Noted that the 'back', 'foward', 'reload' buttons on the Mozilla tool bar 
now have little junk lines between them ( I use the 'Modern' skin)  Not too 
happy.  Can send screen dump if you want.

Spent a while searching for how to actually turn on Mozblog.  Stumbled upon 
the View/show/hide menu item. This isn't listed on the documentation page.

the 'Discuss' app is absolutely nowhere to be seen.  This makes much of the 
documentation page irrelevant.

Opened account on Blogspot.com.  Gave uid/pw to MozBlog, and it seemed to 
connect and get all my details automatically 'found account', 'saving 
details'  - well done - much better than the procedure actually listed on 
the documentation page :)

Opened MozBlog tool bar and it looks lovely, really nice :)

Entered sample text, clicked 'publish' but nothing happens :(

Taking the menu items on the Mozblog pane one by one:

'MozBlog'  Does nothing. Doesn't take me to any of the items on the 
pop-down menu.

'Edit' Grayed out.

'Publish' - does nothing.

'Show/hide Format Toolbar' - works perfectly.

'Go' - gives me 'The connection was refused while attempting to click to 
localhost' error message.

'Synchronize' - does nothing.

'Local Notes' - does nothing.  (I've already specified a local disk save 
folder)

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

Tomato
