technical issue I'm having trouble posting links and pictures

[SomeRegularReshiram 37]

When I try to post a picture or link, it does nothing when I click "OK" after typing in the URL. And it also won't do anything if I click "Cancel" or click the x that closes the window. Does anyone know why this is happening or how I can fix it?!

I cant say i know the underlying cause but Alternatively, you can write insertURLhere and copy and paste your URL in there, as a quick solution and it should insert your image without needing to go through all the prompts! :grin2:

Hopefully this is helpful somewhat in the meantime!

Same happens to me and the copy and paste doesn't work at all

Quick Question: are you using an Apple device?

No, the brand that made my laptop it Toshiba.

OK. More questions then. What browser are you using? Record the version if you can. Is this happening in both the quick reply and full editor?

As a note Jeric, this *sounds* like the behaviour IE has around the WYSIWYG bug. Not being able to close dialog boxes properly and the like.

Since the user hasn't provided any further information on their issue in over a month, I deem it safe to say they found a solution on their own. Locking this thread.

If you have any further questions, feel free to start a new thread.
