To: Yo-Yo; ShadowAce; Hebrews 11:6

Let me preface this by saying, yes I’m logged in.

I got a new iPad. When I manually type in <img src=“ for a picture and then paste the URL as I’ve always done, when I preview I get a small box with a question mark.

HOWEVER, if I copy THE SAME img src SYNTAX from a prior post, it works perfectly.

The ONLY thing I can guess is causing the trouble, is that when I type img it shows up with an underline; I guess that means it’s considered a typo by my new iPad.

I don’t want to constantly copy and past html code from my notepad. Anybody have any ideas how to fix this problem? Thank you.

I'm assuming that you are including the closing portion of the tag as well? It was not listed in your post.

<img src="">

I have this issue with my iPhone when I attempt to paste URLs for either links or pics.

What I have found is that

1) I cannot easily capture the URL of a pic with my iPhone, I just cannot paste the correct URL for some reason, and

B) When I cut and paste a URL for a web page the iOS adds a leading space to the pasted URL, and I have to manually delete this space between the first " and the start of the URL (usually http://). If I do not delete this leading space, the URL is broken and does not work in FR.

Hope this helps.

If you will download the text editor FRPFE in post #55, your problem evaporates. See the sample in post #142--notice "Image".
