Yesterday, A. told me that there had been an update for Rhapsody with the Moveable Type blogging feature fix. So I decided to check it out. Well, it’s still not working. It’s better but still not working. It now opens up the pop-up JSP window fine but when hitting the Post button, we’re getting a nice javascript error (d not found). A little hack later, I was able to right click and view source on the javascript. Sure enough, the url that Rhapsody sent to the JSP is not properly parsed and still refer to a variable d (document) which is nowhere to be found since the javascript command has been stripped…

But I HAVE A SOLUTION!

So, my MT bookmarklet was this.

All I had to do was remove the link_title value (it’s not being used by the server) from my bookmarklet and voila!

Of course, to try it, I had to turn back on my linux box here at home, reconnect my mouse/keyboard/monitor to boot it properly, swear a few times to find out after 1 hour that the stupid router somehow was not in ‘loopback’ mode so it was denying my request to go to sylvain.homeip.net … Anyways …

MT Blogging works again with this hack (until the JSP guys fix it but A. is on their case) … Well somehow it doesn’t work anymore, crashing in the MT db now .. so who knows .. not my problem as I am using WordPress now which I have to find a solution since it’s not supported by Rhapsody yet…
