hi
i tried on two different computers with firefox and safari (up to date). using an macbook and a windows xp machine. flash is up to date.
again, the problem is when the ‘create blog’ button is hit the page reloads with the fields filled in.
any advice is welcome! thanks

also the blog im trying to create is
durhamfreeschool.wordpress.com
the only shared thing about the two computers is the internet connection. -
ok, figured it out. the password wasn’t strong enough (as in didnt have a number/character) but there wasn’t a window or anything that popped up or told us that was the case. it did work on your mobile site though.
so perhaps that’s something to fix on your end? -

Hey there,
I am able to view your site normally on my mobile phone.
Is this still an issue? Let me know! :)
