Xinha strips image path when dragged

Post by vincem »

I'm having an issue with image paths within an entry which I assume is related to Xinha.

I don't use the media library for my entries and just link to images manually with the toolbar button. I've always been using this kind of path:

Code: Select all

"/serendipity/uploads/imagename.jpg"
without a problem.

As it is now, I can still add an image to an entry with the toolbar button, write my full path and save the entry. Everything stays fine. However if I grab the image in WTSIWYG mode and move it around in the entry body, the full path gets stripped and I am left with only

Code: Select all

"uploads/imagename.jpg"
which works on the startpage but not in archives.

A search among previous posts revealed this similar issue:
http://board.s9y.org/viewtopic.php?f=4& ... image+path
but it was a long time ago, Xinha has probably changed, and I tried the following htaccess fix without any luck:

Code: Select all

RewriteRule ^archives/[0-9] -[0-9] /[0-9] /uploads/(.*) uploads/$1 [NC,L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^archives/[0-9] -[0-9] /[0-9] /images/(.*) images/$1 [NC,L,QSA]
Am I close?

Cheers,
Vince

Hi!

Are you using serendipity 1.4.1 with the internal Xinha editor? Or are you talking about the external Xinha plugin?

Hi!

Yeah, it does the same for me, too. This is a bug in Xinha, we'll need to contact the Xinha developers on this. I'm a bit out of time right now, would you maybe want to ask for help on their forums, so that we might find a fix for it? I'm sure it's either a missing configuration directive or a bug in the version we are using (0.95) ...

Regards,
Garvin

Hi!

Googling for a bit I found this:

http://xinha.webfactional.com/ticket/448

It says, that it's FF's fault, and that a config option is set to TRUE for it. The sourcecode also shows that it's set to TRUE - but it still fails. It might be that a recent Firefox built reintroduced trouble to this issue?! At least I can reproduce your trouble on my installation (latest FF3)

Garvin

Thanks for the info Garvin, I should at least be able to use IE for the time being. I'll give it a try tonight. And I will also post the question on the Xinha forum.

Cheers,
Vince
