http://blog.getfirebug.com/ is hosted somewhere in your system. When I try to use the theme-editor to fix the links in our header: https://blog.getfirebug.com/wp-admin/theme-editor.php I fail because it says: You need to make this file writable before you can save your changes. See the Codex for more information. It links http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions describing the issue.

You should just provide IT with an updated theme. Write access has been purposely disabled for security reasons, and while I don't speak for IT, I doubt it will be re-enabled.

You is IT and how to reach them?
(In reply to comment #2) > You is IT and how to reach them? I am not IT. This bug is how you reach them.
Heh, yeah, I meant "Who", not "You" ;-)
John, You've reached the IT helpline and are in a queue. Your request will take approximately 112,422,145,322 days to process. We thank you for your patience!
Just kidding. Let me know what you need and I'll make the changes for you.

Well this seem remarkably inefficient. header.php should read: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head profile="http://gmpg.org/xfn/11"> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="<?php bloginfo('html_type'); ?>; charset=<?php bloginfo('charset'); ?>" /> <title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> <?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> &raquo; Blog Archive <?php } ?> <?php wp_title(); ?></title> <meta name="generator" content="WordPress <?php bloginfo('version'); ?>" /> <!-- leave this for stats --> <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>" type="text/css" media="screen" /> <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?> RSS Feed" href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>" /> <link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo('pingback_url'); ?>" /> <?php wp_head(); ?> </head> <body> <div id="main"> <img class="corner cornerTopLeft" src="http://getfirebug.com/blank.gif"/> <img class="corner cornerTopRight" src="http://getfirebug.com/blank.gif"/> <img class="header" src="http://getfirebug.com/header.png"/> <div id="topNav"> <div><a href="/">blog</a></div> <div><a href="http://groups.google.com/group/firebug">discuss</a></div> <div><a href="http://getfirebug.com/releases/index.html">releases</a></div> <div><a href="http://getfirebug.com/docs.html">documentation</a></div> </div> <a href="/"><img class="header" src="/header.png"/></a>
Done. The next time, it would be nicer if you could attach the html to bug as an attachment or a patch to an existing version of the file. That'll be easier for us to work with.
