# Cannot ‘Write Post’

 * Everything loads up fine, I can add / edit categories, etc. But when I try to
   simply write a post — I get nothing!
 * When I click the ‘write post’ link to /wp-admin/post.php I end up getting two
   boxes… one for comments and one for ‘WordPress bookmarklet’
 * This is the same version and theme as two other sites that work fine. What gives?

 * If it’s a new install you may have got a mangled file on upload.
 * I’d say follow the directions for upgrading to 2.0.4:

 * I also cannot write a post…when I hit publish or edit/save or save, it pops up
   a warning: R U Sure you want to navigate away from this page? You’ll lose everything!
 * I need to post my daily blog…not sure what changed, not sure I did anything! 
   I don’t recall playing w/ anything.
 * Any Help??

 * Forget it…I accidently had some hidden link from my brother’s letter I was posting…
   that is what it must have picked up on! SOLVED. 🙂 THANKS.
