mozilla + blogger = not good

first lesson in browser sensitivity:

not all browsers are created equal. my it geek husband switches network browsers and software like some people change their underwear. logging into the computer is always a unique experience to see what changed from my last visit.

software comes and goes. but i thought internet explorer was here to stay. unfortunately, that was not the case.

it usually starts with a denial of service error, e.g. can't find network to let me know he's been monkeying around again.

this time, we were using mozilla's firefox for our web browser. bill gates got his walking papers.

but after spending 3 hours trying to post a few blogs, (being the smarty-pants that i am) i finally checked the known issues list on blogger's help section. typing in the exact error in the search field got me nowhere.

lesson learned:  if it's taking wayyy too long to post something, even with a cable modem or dsl, stop it and read the help section.

and ie is back on my laptop.
