Problem with Mojikan message compose editor

Testing out iTalk Buddy and Moji plus Mojikan. Really can't tell if they are separate version of the same application or independent applications by themselves. Whatever, time will probably tell. But there is a current problem when testing out Mojikan "Send Message". When you click that, you get a message compose editor (see screenshot below):



In FireFox, you can type in the SUBJECT and also use the drop-down menu to select from your list of contacts who to send it to, but you can't click inside the COMPOSE window to start typing your message.

However, I retested it in Internet Explorer 6, and with that browser, there is no problem. Managed to send off a test message.

Testing to see if method of using Blogger to host photo for other than post still works

I am going to see if the URL of the photo posted in the previous post can be use for the <img> tag
