Resolved: Can't post images or videos using Firefox  

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 

I'm assuming this is a browser issue. My OS is Windows Vista. Browser is Firefox 3.6.9. When I try to post an image I get an error message that this site couldn't get the info from the other site. When I just tried to post a video I didn't get an error message but the post just had an empty box.

 

Any suggestions? Thanks.

Hello!

 

There is a known issues with FireFox and the Rich Text Editor. Some have had success by clicking on the source button in the upper  left hand corner of the reply box and then back to the reply box.

One of the things I was trying to embed was from Youtube. The other was a picture from another site. I got it working by clicking on the Source button and then clearing the reply box before posting the image. I also downloaded the newest version of Firefox.

It is a Firefox issue but we are working to fine tune our features to work with browsers as they are updates. It may take some time though since things constantly change these days. redface.gif
