Uploading Images into Post

[erierambler 10]

I seem to be having a problem uploading chart images (.gif ) into my posts on my blog. First I browse and get the file, then upload. Then I right click the url and copy. Then go to the image icon and a pop-up comes up. Then I paste into the pop-up. It looks like it works in the post but the image just shows the url after, not the image itself. There must be a click here or there I'm not doing Any help would be appreciated, you can see for yourself with today's entry.

erie - is this for the post to your blog title April 1st?

 

Image appears fine to me. If you are not logged in then the image will appear as a url, but when logged in it appears correctly

Hmmm..........Well, I'm logged in and it only appears as an url to me , yet when I look at other's posts, they have an image of a chart imbedded. It must be personal

OK - right I see what you mean.

Erie,

I only see the URL also.

 

Perhaps the opening and closing tags have to be on the same line as the url addy? Thats the only difference I can see between your non working tag system and others that are working. /shrug/

Delete the space between the c and the h in attachment.

Erie - the problem is you have copied the incorrect link into the body of the post.

 

Delete the current link location from the body of the post and replace it with this link location:

Nope.........still not........ hmmmmmmm... any other ideas????

[DbPhoenix 42]

No, delete the space.

[erierambler 10]

No, delete the space.

 

LOL, when I go to edit the post , there is no space, the url only shows up broken after it is posted.

When you right-click the file, are you clicking Copy Link Location?

[erierambler 10]

When you right-click the file, are you clicking Copy Link Location?

 

Since I'm using IE , I'm clicking copy Shortcut. You have patience today.......

I stopped using IE long ago. But you ought to be able to get an address from somewhere. As for the chart you posted to the W thread, you have two https in the address.

No the url's in my blog only have one http, but maybe the problem is related somehow.........

Hey erie,

 

There are two https in your address. Are you deleting the one waiting in the image box before pasting the address? I have to do that. Dunno why. Always did at T2W too. Perhaps cos I use Opera.

[erierambler 10]

test as well

 

 

[erierambler 10]

That's it, there is the http waiting in the pop-up box, once deleted, then the image posts fine. Thank you Tune, another observant person. Thank goodness it was something simple
