External image link

[bariq]

Hi all,

Whenever i link external images in a post the images get folded inline and scroll bars appear around the image to scroll.

I tried the ACP->extensions page and set the images to display as thumbnails and also selected the external link image to appear as 640x480 first if clicked should popup. But these settings doesnt seem to work as the images are still shown inline.

Is there a way to show the images as thumbnails and when clicked pop them out ?

Using ver 1.4.1

cheers

I know what you mean and this part also gave me the grief... but like I wrote in another post... the best solutino to any of the problems (to me) is the HighSlide JS .script. And I'm pretty sure the people at IntegraMOD would love to have it installed by default, but due to reasons like licensing it may seem difficult... as IntegraMOD is free but HighSlide JS is only free for non-commercial use and therefore (not knowing what an IntegraMOD user will do with his/her site) it can't really be implemented as a standard.

Anyhow... I'm still short on time for all I need to do, but will post some stuff once I've got it to work for the "BB-code" image-tag as well.

For attachments still works perfectly fine <img>

i used a custom .script on my site to achieve what you did with the Highslide.. but i want to do something more than that, for that reason iam trying to figure the postrow.MESSAGE in viewtopic_body.tpl is getting populated.

I just had a quick look at the "bbcode.tpl" and here I was able to implement HighSlide HS" to the [ img ] tag in like 25 seconds... only thing I didn't like about it was... it also affects other areas then only the post itself. So it will also affect signature etc.

Ok... I got it to work so that inline images never exceed the max width of the post area... now only get another JavaScript to NOT apply HighSlide when image doesn't exceed the max width. Coz now it will make smaller images bigger

excellent work.. keep it up. yeah its better to embed the java.script too, so that can make out the size of the image with a simple if condition. hope to see the code soon <img>

cheers
