I can upload images, select an image etc.

But: If I fill in the "Alt Text", "Width", Height", "Horizontal", "Vertical", "Border" boxes this information is not placed within the img code. All I get in the post is:

I have searched the help forums but can find no reference to this.
Windows XP-pro service pack 1, IE ver 6

I have tested this within the forum test area at:

Incidentally since the file claims to be xhtml the end should be: border="0" /> but that's another issue :-)

The RTE uses the web browsers own built in RTE API.

In IE it can produce some shockingly bad HTML that can screw up things like image tags when they come to be filtered by the security filters.

Solutions are being looked into this, but IE does seem to produce randomly different (and bad) HTML code.

This is also why you don't get the /> at the end of the image tag.

OK on all that.

I have just downloaded the latest version of Firefox.

Height, width and border now works. At least I can now size images.

But "horizontal", "vertical" and "alt text" do not work.

This is for feedback to you, I am not complaing. I am sure that these will be fixed. The only thing I would suggest at this time is that if those last three dont work in any browser you might think about removing them as options for now, which I think I will have to do. I can tell people to use Firefox if they are using images but they will still get back to me if "alt text" does not work for example.

The new image filters were bought in a bit of a rush fro version 8.03 to patch an small XXS security hole.

This new filter will be more fully tested and refined for the next version, given there will be more time to do this.
