Yes- most of us know how to do that. Unfortunately, at some levels (including intermediate (photo) levels) one gets :
"javascript:;"
The Browser being used is Safari-
Go to the test album I have set up... open the "Belgian Gate, then" pic to the itermediate level. Right click and select "Copy Image"
You will get "javascript:;"
Now try the same thing with the Coins- you will get "
http://570thusaag.com/gallery4th/albums/userpics/10001/59thOrdBdeCoin_Small.jpg", which is an accurate, useable URL.
Internet Explorer:
Belgian Gate intermediate, right click, select copy link to clipboard, you get "javascript:;"
Belgian Gate intermediate, right click, select copy image, you get nothing.
On the coins, right click, select copy image, nothing.
My point is, "I" know that I have to force each pic to a different level of "open"; that is to say, I know that I won't always be able to get the postable URL without taking an extra step and opening the picture further sometimes- Sometimes if I "Copy Image" I get the URL, other times, I don't, and get "javascript:;", so I open the pic farther and see if the
then works, and when it still doesn't, I then look up to the browser URL window and sometimes copy the info that is there... but it is inconsistent, nobody has explained to me why that is yet.
So- the no brainer approach would be to code a URL field that shows not an absolute URL reference ONLY at the bottom, but also the correct URL for posting between IMG tags, so that people can actually post the image into a messsage, and not just a URL that goes back to Coppermine. Both should be readily available, or easily achieved
You should see the instructions I have been writing to post so folks can figure out how to post pics without problems... it should not take nearly so many paragraphs to explain how to post a dang pic.
Hell, I have some people using photobucket just because it is easier... and since this is a military reunion site, that sure does not help me or the stie much to have those pics where others on the site cannot browse through them.
