I'm not sure if you know this or not, but when I go to make a new entry, and hit save, it won't save. I have to preview it and then save it in order for it to be saved. My MT is on a linux server, Kernel version 2.6.16.16-grsec, Machine Type i686, Apache version 1.3.34 (Unix), PERL version 5.8.5, PHP version 4.4.2, and MySQL version 4.1.19-standard...I'm not sure if any of that helps you at all or not :$ But that's almost all of the info I get from the control panel of my domain =)

Hi Heidi. Thanks for the note. If you feel like you've found a bug and you've tested it on the latest beta (currently Beta-3), please go ahead and submit a full bug report. By submitting it through the form, it is entered directly into our bug tracking software where the MT engineering team will see it. This eliminates the need for the engineers to waste precious moments trawling through may comments and forum posts searching for bugs.
The only thing that I can imagine causing your problem is an out-of-date mt.js in the mt-static folder. Again, try updating to the latest beta and testing to see whether or not it still occurs.
Thanks again for the note!
