Image Posting Problems

[RobAC]

One of my forum members has a problem posting pictures in my forums. The picture is hosted on MSN. He doesn't have a problem posting it on other forums.

If I make a post and click on the Insert Image button, insert the URL, the image instantly shows up in the WYSIWIG editor. However, after clicking the Submit button, the post comes up and all you see are the [img] tags and the URL.

Allow [IMG] is turned on in that forum, and Allow Dynamic URLs is set to YES in the Admin panel. What else could it be?

the way msn stores pictures is atad too much for vB security settings

you can create another image tag that will work

This is thanks to Jake who said somthing about this but i cant find his post atm

so
Title: Blind Image Tag
Tag: bimg
replacement:
<img src="{param}" alt="{param}" />
Description :
This will take an image form anywhere
Use Option: no

hit save

Isn't http:// required before the www. part? Otherwise the link will probably end up as http://www.yourforumsite.com/forums/www.msn.etc
