Can't insert GC hosted photo's into cache page!

[+RIclimber]

I'm trying to insert a photo into a puzzle cache. I'm doing the same way I've done it for over 10 years and it's not working. The The IMG tag is being stripped out!!

 

1. I uploaded the photo to the cache page.

2. Copied the URL of the image

3. Added <IMG src="..."> to the long description.

4. Saved, checked page, Image missing!

5. Re-edited to find the IMG changed to <IMG />

 

EDIT: The same photo hosted on Facebook works fine!

A properly formatted image tag should have no issues in a cache description. Can you provide the full content of what you were trying to insert?

I inserted this image into a test cache listing without any problems.

 

I'm using Firefox on a Windows machine.

 

I can only guess that perhaps you inserted a typo into the html, or perhaps failed to grab the entire URL of the image? just guessing here.

 

You can't see my test cache page, it's unpublished, but your image with from the geocaching.com url displays fine.

Does not work.

Does work.

 

I'm using Chrome and an older version of Firefox. That might be part of the problem. Either way, it's working.
