 * OK, with help from the plugin authors, I figured this out if anyone is interested.
 * By default, my write area opens in advanced mode with a wysiwyg plugin (WYSI-
   Wordpress). I have the SpellingChecker plugin installed, which doesn’t work with
   wysiwyg (but the button was still there). Also, the Quicktags buttons were visible,
   but they didn’t work. And since I use Firefox, copy and paste also didn’t work.
   The only way to use the spellcheck plugin and quicktags, and to copy and paste
   with a Mozilla browser, was to de-activate the wysiwyg plugin in the Plugin area(
   and then re-activate it when you were through with those tasks). This just seemed
   way too cumbersome.
 * The idea was to create “on/off switch buttons”, since when using wysiwyg, I didn’t
   want the spelling button or the Quicktags buttons to appear, as they didn’t work.
   By turning off wysiwyg, the buttons would re-appear, and I could access their
   functions, as well as copy and paste with Mozilla browsers, and then turn wysiwyg
   back on to continue with the post. And ideally, incorporate everything into just
   one set of on/off buttons.
 * I now have a single set of on/off buttons.
 * **On button:**
    Turns WYSI-Wordpress on Turns SpellingChecker off (no spell button)
   Turns Quicktags off (no buttons)
 * **Off button:**
    Turns WYSI-Wordpress off Turns SpellingChecker on (spell button
   appears and works) Turns Quicktags on (buttons appear and work) Allows copy and
   paste in Mozilla browsers
 * Hope someone might find this useful… code is at:

 * Also have that problem using 1.5. I’ve tried varying all the parameters for list_cats
   found in the Codex for template tags, and I can’t get the categories to sort 
   at all in the sidebar. Even tried changing ‘name’ to ‘cat_name’, which is the
   database field name. Still no go.
 * Anyone have a solution to sort the categories alphabetically in the sidebar?
