I'm not quite sure what she was saying. There have been issues with
Typo and IE, largely because none of the Typo developers use Windows,
so we don't have an easy way to test things. Feel free to submit bug
reports via typo.leetsoft.com, and include screenshots as
applicable. Patches that fix problems are even better.
Typo doesn't use Java at all, but it requires JavaScript. If JS is
disabled, then comments won't work. We might want to look at fixing
that at some point in the future, but it's not a high priority for
any of us. Again, we'll take patches :-)

thanks. yeah i meant javascript : )
well i'll see how motivated i am. i really like typo and i think i
have a windows box around my house, unplugged and unloved. the blog
was intended for family and nontech friends so i might do some more
footwork.
is there anything i should post besides, screenshot, the tail of the
log and description?
i have rails experience but it is limited to the first 200 pages of
the agile and two personal applications.
for now... when you go to my blog in IE it autoshows the "your blog
and your email" addition. but null is placed in to yoru name and your
blog. this caused some confusion with my 13 yr old cousin. who
thought my website was telling her my name was null.
IE 6.0.29900.2180 xp sp2
the leave url/email link works fin to hide and show after that, it is
just open by default. the java (prototype library i assume) worked
fine for me at work.
don't have the log file handy

Heh, that's actually the biggest problem with my current stats
package. It treats robot visitors just like everybody else, so the
top slots of most of the stats it gives me are robots, which is
something I really don't care about. I want to know my human
readership and what parts of my blog they're reading and such, and I
just can't get a good reading with my current stats package.

I don't know if live previews of comments are really very useful.
Comments are usually just quick messages you type and send, not
something you really have to care too much about the formatting for.
Maybe a better approach would be a Preview button that gives you a
once-off preview of the current comment? That way you don't get
distracted by the page changing constantly, and you're not constantly
sending queries off to the server.

Depends. I can think of a lot of NGO's that could use a good
open-source blog to manage blogs for the organization, including an
English school that I'm working with right now that wants to do student
blogs. We're looking at MT but I would love to be able to use typo
instead :)
