This post really should’ve been posted to “TROUBLESHOOTING.” It’s still a question for me, though.

I stumbled across “ecto.” It’s lets you edit your weblog offline.

ecto is a feature-rich desktop blogging client for MacOSX and Windows, supporting a wide range of weblog systems, such as Blogger, Blojsom, Drupal, MovableType, Nucleus, TypePad, WordPress, and more. ecto is the successor of the wildly popular Kung-Log, which has been in use by thousands of Mac users and which earned a 4.5 mice rating in the MacWorld July 2003 issue as well as high ratings at VersionTracker.com and MacUpdate.com.
With ecto you can write and manage entries for your weblog(s). The advantage over using your weblog’s control panel is that you can compose entries offline and use the extra features ecto offers, such as spellcheck, creating links, attachments, and much more. ecto is designed to make blogging much more easier and yet give the users as much power as possible to manage their weblogs.”

Is there other software out there that does the same?

Fixed.
In Firefox I went to Tools | Options | Privacy | Cookies | View Cookies. I removed the cookies for “localhost” (two of which referred to WordPress). I refreshed the blog page and my posts displayed just fine.
Whew! Thanks to a poster on another Firefox thread who suggested resetting cookies.
Hope this helps someone else.

I see the same issue.
I’m doing a fresh install of 1.2.1, using Firefox 1.0PR and XAMPP on a Win2K box. “Sorry, no posts matched your criteria” displays in place of my posts. I switch to MySQL and verify that the posts do exist in the tables. Switch to Internet Explorer and, like magic, I see my posts display in WordPress.
A couple weeks ago I had no problem using 1.2 with Firefox.
It makes no sense.
