“Write Post” Page Layout Messed Up in Safari

    I’m a Mac user who would like to employ Safari to post to my blog, for a variety of reasons, but the layout of the ‘Write Post’ admin page in WordPress is messed up.

    The title and body text boxes show up in the right column under the widgets for Post Slug, Categories, etc. I don’t know if it functions, but I don’t want to try writing in a box that’s about 1.5 inches wide. I can stretch the box, but it stays in the right column, instead of in the middle. The header and footer of the page look the way they should. I reviewed my plugins, thinking maybe one of those was monkeying with the layout, but I can’t find any likely suspects.

    I have Googled the tar out of this issue, and searched the WordPress forums. The closest I get to any hope is people who say it’s a Safari problem with the beta (v. 3.0.4). BTW, I’m using Leopard (Mac OS 10.5).

    Oddly enough, WordPress has a great plugin for posting from my iPhone, and the layout is perfect, but writing paragraphs of stuff with my thumbs is not my preferred method of data entry.

    Thank You for any help you might be able to offer.

    I have discovered the cause of the problem. A WordPress plugin called “Buy Me a Beer” (to encourage PayPal donations) was the culprit. I deactivated the plugin, and the layout looks good in Safari. Of course, this doesn’t solve my problem, but it’s a step in the right direction.
