New Create Entries beta, round two

The next code push will update the new Create Entries page in beta with a number of fixes for previously-reported bugs and enhancements. To make it easier to keep track, we're therefore opening up a new bug-reporting post (to avoid confusing things with bugs reported in the previous post).

When reporting bugs, please include:

* The browser name, browser version number, and operating system you're using
* The steps you took to reproduce the problem
* Whether or not you've tested the same steps in another browser (and if so, which)
* Whether you get the same result every time you try the same steps, or if it only happens sometimes

If we can't reproduce the problem under the same browser and operating system, we may also ask you for a list of any browser extensions you have installed.

Things that are still not yet implemented:

* the "don't autoformat" button
* the rich text editor
* editing existing entries (it will display the old form)
* draft posts of any type, including autosaving of entries

There are also still some issues with IE, especially in "privacy mode". Anything that requires Javascript is currently not working in IE in privacy mode, and we're trying to figure out if there's something we can do to fix that or if the settings of the browser override anything we can do.

Wasn't looking for a bug, but found one.

Firefox 9.0, Google Chrome 16.0.912.63, Safari 5.1.2 (7534.52.7), OSX Lion 10.7.2

When using the new entry page, in Firefox, clicked on "browse" on tags. Tags started to load -- then it posted my entry. In Google and Safari, clicked on "browse" on tags with an empty entry, tags started to load -- and it tried to to post.

Other than that, I like the new look and speaking as someone with a fic journal, thank you for allowing the ability to post as another user.

That happened to me too. Out of interest, are you in the JS beta or not?

[edit: Seems like it's a bug that happens when people have a tag that's solely composed of numbers. [personal profile] fu is on it!]

Oops, yes, that looks to be an issue caused by the presence of tags that are all-numbers. We'll fix it soon!
