Comment:

 I'd like to add this to posts now.  I'm running WordPress 2.3.2, and have
 a custom fields system set up for a client.  Our system is:

 1) types in post title, post content, selects category
 2) scrolls down and adds custom field information, hits "Add Custom
 Field".  Nothing happens, but apparently the field is added (I'm used to
 seeing it show up somewhere when you add it - but it never does.)
 3) Publish post.

 what I *expect* is to the post is published.  What happens is the post is
 saved as "Draft created on (whatever date) at (whatever time)" - all post
 data entered is lost.

 As with the rest 0if I write the post and publish, then return to it and
 add the custom field, it's fine.  Annoying to have to do this every time,
 though.
