Description Tuomas Kuosmanen 2001-07-03 08:44:27 UTC 
Inserting images from the web into the composer (so they end up as <img
src="http://blah">) doesnt load the image up in the composer, so one doesnt
see the image.

After sending a test mail to myself, I noticed it still seems to generate
an inline attachment instead of adding a HTTP link:

<IMG SRC="cid:994149651.631.2.camel@spectrolite" ALIGN="top" BORDER="0">

I selected the "Link" notebook tab in the Insert Image -dialog and pasted
the image url there, and clicked ok.

ugh.  This needs some love.
Comment 2 Larry Ewing 2001-10-30 00:00:33 UTC 
Okay, the editor now passes the url verbatim if it cannot find the
file.  Now it is up to the composer to support http: urls.  This
shouldn't be too hard.  The urls should insert in the message properly
and display properly upon receipt

Because of the decision to remap 1.1->1.2 and 1.2->1.4, I'm going to be
moving a large number of bugs around in the bugzilla. You can just
search on 'body contains' 'Because of the decision to remap' and mark
all as read. Please direct all questions about this change to
evolution@ximian.com, not the bug.

Works For Me in 1.1.0.99 -> Fixed.

Fixed, then.
If you don't think it's working properly, please feel free to reopen.

Bugzilla lose my comment last time.  This bug is not fixed, the remote
image is not loaded in the composer for display.  You simply get an
empty box.
Comment 8 Larry Ewing 2002-06-06 16:20:46 UTC 
Ugh, forgot to click reopen this time again
Comment 9 André Klapper 2006-02-22 00:08:50 UTC 
how can i insert images from the web at all?
having an html composer window and dropping the picture on the body adds it as an attachment; and inserting an image (main menu entry) only lets me choose local images.
Comment 10 Poornima 2006-07-27 11:41:31 UTC 
Closing this bug as there is no updates from reporter.
Comment 11 André Klapper 2006-07-28 13:14:07 UTC 
Reopening. I don't see any sense in the last comment.

> I selected the "Link" notebook tab in the Insert Image -dialog

This does not exist anymore in 3.2.3, however the file chooser dialog allows me to enter an http:// URL as Location.
The image was immediately displayed in the composer body.

Closing as FIXED.
