You need to verify what you believe to have copied . . . by using some text editor's text document window, into which you paste whatever is stored in the computing device Clipboard.

So far, some of what you are copying, sometimes includes characters that are effectively gremlins -- they do not display but cause an oddball space character to seem to have been entered.

The following URL address:

for the image that you tried to post in your reply 244, includes a string of gremlins: %E2 %80 %9C

Those are ASCII characters that resolve to: â P œ

As used ("%E2%80%9C") in the above URL address, those unusual characters would cause a failure - your iPad Internet browser attempting to retrieve info from a server that fails to recognize the URL address sent from your browser.

Thank you, too…if I don’t manually add the quotes, I can type out the html code and make it work.

Weird.
