Hello, we are on Drupal 6.9.

When you edit a previously saved node, you can see the attached image's thumbnail above the IA field and that's ok.

But as previously attached image is not selected on dropdown list by default, saving this node without re-selecting the image breaks the association. This seems rather annoying indeed.

Is it possible to focus the dropdown list to previously selected image on node re-edit?

Sorry if I miss something or this is a local issue anyway.

Tx.

Works for me with 6.10 and the latest image module CVS code.
Which version of image module are you using?

We are on Drupal 6.10 and latest Image CVS HEAD indeed.

When you "re-edit" a node which has an attached image, "Existing Image" dropdown on Attached Images section defaults to "None" and if you casually save the node, previous association is lost.

Can anyone reproduce?

I've got almost same problem. When editing nodes, Existing Image dropdown is empty ("None")! Images were added with "image_create_node_from". Did i missed something?
UPD: Image nodes created with image_create_node_from are unpublished, so they were "invisible". I think we need some control other that. 'cause calling

$image = image_create_node_from($imgpath.$item['photo'], $item['mark']);
$image->status=1;
node_save($image); //We already have node_save in image_create_node_from!

is not so good solution.
UPD2: found it..

$node_options = variable_get('node_options_'. $node->type, array('status', 'promote'));
$node->status = in_array('status', $node_options);
$node->promote = in_array('promote', $node_options);

hey guys, I don't know if its too late for you to see this; that same problem is bugging me quite a bit. set image nodes to unpublished so i can just use the attached thumbnails in block views; editing the node removes the attachment, etc you know the deal.

is that snippet of the code the solution, and how should it be edited?

thanks, I'm not on your level yet...

It sounds like comment 4 is about something completely different from the initial issue. 5 is possibly related to 4, but I can't tell for sure.
Please file fresh issues for new problems, and please describe accurately what you are doing and what is happening.

In fact latest dev has a new multiple selection type box and it has not this problem anymore.

Then we should say this is fixed.
