    Michael: I took a look at your blog server and found out why. The authentication header required is different than blogs.msdn.com. Either your community server version is higher than 1.0 or msdn has a customized version. Anyway, I am looking at ways to workaround this and should post back my answers soon.

    Michael: a special edition for Community Server 1.0 is now availble at the above mentioned location. Let me know whether it works because I can not test it.

    I'm trying this out on my blog on blogs.msdn.com, and I can't get it to work. I've used the same settings as on your screenshots (server: http://blogs.msdn.com/ and service URL: http://blogs.msdn.com/blogservice.asmx), but when I attempt to get recent posts, or try any other action that needs to hit the server, it times out - e.g. "Unable to retrieve categories list. Exception: The operation has timed-out."

    So far, I've only tried this from within MS - do you think there are issues going through a proxy server, or is there something else going on?

    btw - I, for one, really appreciate your work on this. I had written a tiny blog poster for .Text, and gave up when trying to get it to work on CS.

    Alan: I believe it is a proxy issue. You probably should install a firewall client.

    Alan: Thinking about the proxy issue again, I agree that is a bug on my side. Changes have been made so that it will work without a firewall client if you configure proxy correctly in IE MANUALLY.

    Michael: I can not investigate this without a CS1.0 blog account. Do you know where I can get one?

    Wow, Michael, you found two bugs for me. Thanks! Both of them are fixed now and more changes are made to make the CS1.0 edition works better. Still it doesn't work as well as the msdn edition though.

    Thanks, with this version I was successfully able to post to my blog! Like I said before, the spelling and grammar checking are invaluable to me, since I'm good at neither, so I will be using this tool a lot!

    With that said, there are still a few quirks that I know will annoy me to no end. For example, the latest posts tab seems to pull them down in no particular order whatsoever, and I'm still getting some weird token errors when refreshing that.

    So what I was wondering, since you don't have a 1.0 installation to work with, if you'd be ok with releasing the project to me to work on, I can go through, tidy up the bugs, and give any changes back to you.

    Just an idea, I hate to keep bothering you with little things.

    On that CS 1.0 Blog account, if you want to register at my site, I can create a blog for you test with. Just go register at http://www.trefry.net and email me (michael@trefry.net) the userid you registered with, I'll create blog for you.

    Actually, a better place would be the other site I'm developing. It's still being worked on, so testing here would be more appropriate.

    register at http://www.onthesoapbox.net then again, email the userid to me at michael@trefry.net

    Michael: thanks for the offering. I actually downloaded CS1.0 and installed it on my own machine. That is why I am certain now the form works for CS1.0. However, from what I found out, the PostID returned by CS1.0 is always 0. And My form depends a lot on the fact that a posted blog entry has a non-zero PostID. I am afraid the best approach to address this is to fix this on the server side if you can(blogs.msdn.com doesn't have this problem).

    It returned a PostID for me after posting.

    Have you thought about releasing the code for this project?

    Yeh, you do get the postid back correctly when creating you post. But the postid's returned by getrecentposts are always 0.

    I am looking at various options about releaseing the source to the public. Keep posted.
