I just solved the problem. I had to edit the draft to make it look right again. I guess there's no way around that.

And if someone offers a possible solution instead of a lecture on "posting protocol" I would stop posting. Besides, since this is primarily a question about how to work with the website and not an error in an article program, I think my posts DO belong here (as opposed to in "Bugs and suggestions"; I'm asking for HELP much more than noting an error).

Perhaps my inclusion of talk regarding the offline editor confused you. My principle problem is with using the ONLINE editor. I only mentioned the other one because the "working draft" text for the online editor somehow got altered during efforts to "cut and paste" back an forth between the two. I NEED THE VERSION IN THE *ONLINE* EDITOR TO MATCH THE LAST PUBLISHED VERSION, yet for some reason, every time I click on "Update Article" it gives me the bad draft. (Specifically, the bullets and numbers on the text's various lists look live "download" symbols instead of bullets, numbers, lightning bolts, and the other stuff in the published version. The published version correctly displays in the main article page, yet the version that keeps showing up in the editor when I click the "update" icon is that bad working version.) PLEASE HELP!

I need to know how to discard a working draft so that the version that shows on the main page is what shows in the (online) editor. Somebody please answer, as my ability to reliable to further updates depends on it!

Are you talking about the offline editor or about my main question regarding discarding a draft? The issue of the draft version is my PRIMARY concern.
