Improperly Escaped-out Octothorpes (Pound Signs) in Refer Log Links
When clicking a referer log entry from a Salon Blogs named anchor link indicating a specific article that day (such as this one from my log today), the octothorpe (hash mark) is escaped out as %23, leading to an error when I try to click on it.

My impression yesterday was that this didn't happen with URLs on the Weblogs.com community server, so I wonder if this is an easily fixable implementation issue?

Radio Category Workflow
If I've written a post, entitled it, and entered a link, and at that point I decide to create a new category for it, I can click the (New) link next to "Categories:" and go ahead and create that category, but when I'm done I will not be returned to the post-box full of copy I've just entered. I can go Back in my browser and that copy will still be there, but the new category will not be available from that cached page. So my best option then is to copy and paste the text , or Post & Publish the article, and then immediately edit it to add the category.

Sure, if I could remember to make the new category in advance, I would do so, but I'm describing a situation where you don't see the need for a new category until completing the entry.

What would be nice is if the new-category workflow returned you to the Home page with any copy from the form and the new category available.

How Do I Make a Link to the Previous Day or Post at Bottom of Home Page?
One Movable Type feature I really like is the back and forward links built into the standard template. Since I generally have many posts per day, I'm only showing three days right now on my home page. I'd like it if at the bottom of the page there were always a link to the previous day/post. That shouldn't be so hard to do, right?
