Blogging in 日本語
I'm hoping to be able to post in Japanese occasionally, so this is a test of how Movable Type handles Japanese text: これは「日本語入力」のテストですよ。Tokyo Tales をよくアクセス下さい。
Here is some extended entry text, also in Japanese: こちらもバイリンガル入力のテストです。

...tables botched.
Hah. "Solved" as long as you define that to mean "completely misaligned so that your right-hand side toolbar appears half-way down the damn page". Arse.

Fingers crossed...
It is freeezing tonight... how? Bright sunshine for three days straight, stroll-around-in-a-t-shirt-at-9pm kind of weather and suddenly my teeth are chattering. Go figure.
Just back from seeing England beat Albania 3-1. A thoroughly undeserved victory, really. Of course I'm glad we won, and it's great that Andy Cole finally scored his first international goal (in the final minute of injury time) but still... we were pants.
Anyway, consoling myself with a final (all being well) colour test... think I've solved the problem of the right-hand-side toolbar. Maybe. Time to suck it and see...

Colour me unimpressed
Bloody hell. There just aren't enough colours to go around. Testing the links and css styles for the righ-hand toolbar...

Blogger template... oh sod it
Okay, larger font size and different colour for the dates, plus no more rampaging javascript errors, please...

Okay, time to see if the ampersnads (like ampersands but sort of malicious) have been successfully reined in. Hit me.

Right, right, got it. Should have listened more closely. I forgot about the escaped ampersands. It looks like I've unwittingly let loose a herd of the buggers, rampaging through my carefully prepared javascript.... they are actually multiplying.... how cool.
Screw this, I'll wait till I get home and re-load the clean copy of the template from my desktop.
Another important lesson learnt the stupid way.

Blogger template lunk
Shoot. The date is larger but I've got me a javascript error. On with the goggles and out with the blowtorch...

Blogger template funk
now the date should be larger - I assume I need to post in order to force this change... so this is it.

Blogger template fun
So that works too. I knew it would, of course.
(sort of)
Now I need to play with putting line breaks between posts.... lemmee see... and increasing the font size of the date headers.

Big Bang
Well, here it is. Sooner or later one has to put down the HTML editor, resist the temptation to tweak the template that bit further, and actually see if the damn blog woks (which is Jonathan Woss speak for "rocks", of course - or maybe I can't spell "works").
So that's what I'm about.... to do....... NOW! Go! Go! Go!
Where's that damn button gone....? Ah, yes.....
