Digger,

What are you using to create your image links?

Can you use the 'insert image link' button on the post box as whatever you're currently using is posting invalid HTML which is breaking the flow of the threads.

Thanks,

This is the link I have when I post

As you see the result is not as required. I have requested help by email on a number of occs and await the reply .I am patient

Could it be I am using the web link insert?

Digger,

YOu need to put the url in the box and then if it is an image like the charts you need to click on the insert image link - try that and see if that makes a difference,

Ian

Digger - Try just pasting the "img src" statement direct to the thread panel and not through the "insert link" boxes.

digger - you seem to be doubling up the img source part at the beginning of the tag - I have just removed this from the second chart and it displays fine

Putting it on the thread and not through the link seems to be the answer

Thank you Ian

Is there any diff between using Firefox and IE? The last was posted using IE

Digger,

There is no difference and disregard what I said about the link box below - to do it correctly, just copy and paste the link directly into the body of post where you would enter your text.

Ian
