I'm not sure why this is happening, but my Mac Safari web browser is aborting on my http://Flickr.com pages. Which is kind of frustrating, since I was just posting some more trip details over at http://VinceOutlaw.com, fired up Flickr to get a picture to include in the post, and totally lost everything I had written...damn!
I have a feeling it has something to do with the the Flash applications that Flickr uses, since my web page has the Flickr Zeitgeist badge on it, but Safari also chokes when I go to Flickr and try to use the Organize page, which is a really big Flash app. It doesn't have any problem with the DHTML magic for deailing with individual pictures, so I'm kind of at a loss.
This also illustrates the sorry state of trying to edit weblogs right within the browser...there's no real method for that tried and true maxim, "Save Often", when you are typing into a web form. Looks like I'll have to get back to trying one of the weblogging tools like NetNewsWire, which allows saving and such.
Off to try again...
