bill, the site doesnt resize images in quote? i've been seeing the first post of the image will be shrunk with the "full" link, but when quoted the image returns to it original size.

quoting is a little buggy sometimes; the way it breaks lines can break links... maybe, that's the problem?

Can you give me a link to an example?

I made a couple changes... hopefully, this wont break anything.

o when quote-replying, the code makes more of an effort to keep href and img tags together on the same line (to prevent the line break problem)

o the image displayer will try hard to deal properly with getting quote gunk in the middle of a img link.

Let me know if things seem to act funny...

Yeah, I edited out a quoted pic in one topic this morning because it took up probably like 30 page lengths or something!

Hm... I can't tell what happened. If you know what it looked like before it got edited/fixed, that would help me a lot... or, we could wait for it to happen again...

Right, that's the problem I'm wrestling with. The code that does the quoted reply can break up links (img or href) and it tends to cause a mess.

Part of the issue is that his post was from a few days ago... before I made the fix that would have prevented the break-up. But, I also change the img tags to try better to find a proper height/width despite the line break and > | characters... that caused a problem in this case, though.

So should all the post after the fix be fine? If so I think you should just forget the ones before then, like this particular one, if it's giving you a headache  * raspberry *

You should put quote in a box instead.

I just released a fix for it... it seems better... this case, at least.

It's hard to know if a change like this might break other cases, though. So, let me know.

I don't think images should be quoted. You should just make it say [inline image] or something.

That's interesting... it may even be possible... or maybe just scale the pic way way down; so people will at least know what they mean...

Scale it down to a thumbnail, then wrap it in a link that goes back to the original post where the pic came from.  * wink *

OK, I threw together some code that should shrink quoted images to about 1/4th the max size (within 200x200).

For example:

This will only apply to quoted posts made from now on.

I probably broke something, as usual, so let me know if you see more strangeness.

Note that there can be a delay to it... If an image is posted without height width numbers (which is the most common thing), quoting them will no immediately do the scaling. But, there's an hourly script that adds the height width and that will correct all images, including thumb scaling. But, anyway, for up to an hour, an image may remain large and unscaled. In the end, it should all be good, though. And, for images that are over an hour old (most!), no problem.
