Link to Pics Using FCKEditor not Working
tqsenkungu - April 23, 2007 - 23:51
I link to flickr photos on my posts and do formatting in FCKEditor and none of it shows up in the post. When it's on my Drupal site it looks like this:

When I post the same stuff Blogger it looks perfect like this:

Help! How can I make sure formatting shows up on Drupal site along with photos.
Problem solving
Disable the rich text editor.
Edit the item you posted. Examine the HTML.
If the IMG tags are missing or invalid, your problem is likely to be an FCKEditor configuration issue.
If the IMG tags exist and are valid, then your problem is an output filter issue. Drupal stores what you feed it and filters on output. See this Lullabot article for an explanation:

Thanks a Million
I had read that lullabot article before, but it was after about 8 hours of overnight messing around with trying to install tinymce and failing, finally getting fckeditor to install then trying to figure out what the heck was going on with filters. I just read it after leaving it alone for a couple of days and changed the order to what the article said pretty much and allowing the paragraph and img tags and everything worked out great! Thanks for making me take a fresh look at things.
