Well, LJXP<\/a> isn't working for me right now. It's either (a) something with my GoDaddy<\/a> host that I'm not allowed to do; (b) something I've got messed up with my WordPress<\/a> install; (c) computers hate me; or (d) some combination of the above.<\/p>\n

That's ok though – I've got a satisfactory kludge to meet my needs.<\/p>\n

I can write posts w\/ Journler<\/a>, and I can format them pretty<\/em> much<\/u> how<\/strong> I want to – it's totally WYSIWYG. Journler can post both to my WordPress<\/a> blog and to my LJ<\/a>. It does this by bringing up another window, where it shows my post w\/ HTML. I choose the blog I wish to use – at this point I can drop in the LJ code snippet for the header you see above (if you're reading this on LJ).<\/p>\n

The sad part is I wrote an AppleScript that dropped it right into the Journler post – and it worked! But it was HTML code to make the cute border, and links and everything – so when I went to post, the < and > got oh so helpfully translated to & l t ; and & g t ;. Sigh. See? Here's the snippet:<\/p>\n

It would've worked perfectly – all I'd have to do is change the XXX to the wordpress posts' url.<\/p>\n

So! My fix is, instead, to use SOHO notes<\/a>, which I love. I've got the code snippet in a Note, and the note is set to a spot on my right-click mouse menu. Works fantastically – I didn't need to bother w\/ AppleScript. Actually, SOHO Notes duplicates Journler in a lot of ways – maybe I should just go with that. Hmm. Gotta see if it<\/em> will post to both blogs. Plus, Journler, while powerful, pretty, and cool just bugs<\/em> me because the name is misspelled. :)<\/p>\n

So again! I'm extremely<\/em> pleased with this solution – that I solidified while writing this post. Awesome<\/em>!<\/p>\n
