 * I had this problem and it was also related to the ProPlayer plugin. If it’s not
   working with the plugins all disabled, you could also try the [gHacks.net solution](http://www.ghacks.net/2009/02/02/wordpress-your-attempt-to-edit-this-post-has-failed/)
   of commenting out the autosave feature in post-new.php in the wp-admin folder(
   line 14).

 * Well, if anyone else ever comes across this, here’s what I did:
 * 1.) Installed Kimili’s Flash Embed Plugin
 * 2.) Download the [Sonettic Cinema Player](http://sonettic-cinema.com/products/players/free/cinema-free.htm#features-list)
   and place on my server.
 * 3.) For the default .swf option in Kimili, I placed an absolute path to the player.(
   So “[http://domain.com/player/cinemaplayer.swf&#8221](http://domain.com/player/cinemaplayer.swf&#8221);)
 * 4.) In my post area I embed the SWF and in the fvars field I write “content=rtmp://
   rtmplink.com/,FILENAME”
 * The Sonettic Cinema Player doesn’t require that you pass the flv filename along
   with the “.flv” extension. Different players may vary, but frankly I wasn’t able
   to get other popular players (JW FLV Player, I’m looking at you) to work with
   this method.
 * Hopefully this information helps someone else.

 * Thank you. The images were, in fact, there, but I just recently switched my permalink
   style and I forgot to add a slash “/” before the image file path.
 * While the images were there, I probably wouldn’t have paid much attention without
   your suggestion. Thank you.

 * Okay, I think I’ve got it _kind of_ figured out. Can anyone tell me why I’ve 
   still got a huge margin on my left side on the footer? It stretches 100%, but
   there’s like a 307 px margin that I can’t figure out…

 * I don’t know…I’m not sure what I’m supposed to type in directly from that.
 * I don’t even know what all that means. I found a post from Moshu saying to write
   img src=… with all that <?php blah blah blah, so I copied it and just inserted
   my image reference, which <b>does</b> work.
 * So if I take that out, what should I put?
 * P.S. – There’s an extra space in the h ttp above so I could get it to show up.
   Otherwise it just made a link out of what I typed. The actual code has http:…

 * FINALLY found it…it was in this snippet of code:
 * `
    </div> <ul> <li> <?php wp_meta(); ?> </li> </ul>
 * My only question now is whether or not I’ve deleted something that I need. Oh
   well…
 * Thanks, everyone, for all the help. I really appreciate it!

 * Here’s something else I just noticed – the bullet actually DOES render in IE,
   but it shows up at the bottom. GRR! What’s going on here?

 * Yeah, I’m not finding where that thing is coming from, so if anyone has any ideas,
   I’d LOVE to hear what I’m doing wrong. Overall though, the site is coming together.

 * Okay, I see what you’re talking about now. And that makes sense, as my wife’s
   laptop is 1024×768. So that’s pretty simple to fix…
 * What about the black dot? Any ideas on that?

 * Okay…I’ve cheated. I did a bit of a manual override of the list function by going
   `
   <?php wp_list_cats('list=0');?>`
 * and that got rid of the bullets in front of each category. However, I have a 
   few remaining issues:
 * 1.) In FF there’s still a large black bullet rendering toward the top of the 
   sidebar.
 * 2.) In IE there’s no bullet, but the header is off by just a couple of pixels.
 * 3.) For some viewers the site is completely out of whack.
 * Any suggestions or ideas on these? Thanks!

 * Thanks…organization isn’t a strongsuit for me anywhere other than the web. 🙂
 * The bullet.jpg thing is actually a bullet with an arrow that isn’t currently 
   used anywhere. As far as the second snippet of code you sent, I think I’m missing
   the relevance. Do you think the indent or spacing is causing the issue?

 * Another another question is what’s causing the alignment problem? I’m running
   out of hair to pull out…how did I manage to screw this up so badly?

 * Chelsea – I looked and the other two lists, “Paper Editions” and “Daily Reads”
   are coded exactly the same. In fact, I copied the code from one of those and 
   changed it to give the catagories.
 * Another question I’d like to ask you is if the layout was screwed up on yours…
