  Hi guys,

  I am currently trying to use Desktop Blogging software with my blog. When I go to post a blog post it does the following:

  pThis Is A Test Blog Post/p

  you can see this happening here: http://www.duncanmaile.com

  This happens with both Windows Live Writer and BlogDesk. Posting from my iPhone works (but I’m not sure if it uses that file).

  What can I do? thanks guys

  You’ll need to ask at http://wordpress.org/support for help as you’re self hosted.

  just to answer my problem, the host i had (maiahost.com) did not have the xmlrpc.php module installed. They issued a refund and forwarded my domain to GoDaddy, very good service.
