Second iPhone Post

For this post I’m just using the iPhone web browser and the normal wordpress admin. I’m starting to see why they made a wordpress iPhone app.
When writing a post, if you turn the phone sideways you can only see about 3 lines vertically, and about 90% of the line horizontally. If the phone is vertical you can only see about 7 words horizontally, or 50% of the line. So either way the sceen is scrolling a lot, and it’s a pain to go back and edit something earlier.

I should mention that you can’t edit in visual mode period, you have to use html mode.

The HTML helpers are still convenient compared to the iPhone app, though they seem to be finicky.

Testing bold.

Scratch that. I’ve got a short post here and it’s already a pain to scroll the page up to hit the HTML buttons.

The “close tags” button worked just then, but it wasn’t working when I made the link.

Looks like I’m going back to the app. The HTML helpers aren’t worth the annoyance of scrolling around. Hopefully they’ll add some helpers to the app soon
