Why doesn't image uploade to a post work with Firefox ?


Kevin Ramer (4.5k9186201) | asked Oct 03 '14, 10:35 a.m.
I run RHEL 6.5 and currently have FF 31.1.  But adding an image has never worked in Firefox.  I think I've accrued enough cred by now.   I was once able to uploade using Google Chrome, but Chrome is dropped from my platform.

I would like this to work now so that I could use it now and again.

Hi Kevin,

What is the current RTC version ?

What type of image are you trying to upload ?

Where are you trying to load the image ?

Are you getting any error message ?

Does it works with uploading txt file  ?

Regards,

Arun.

  This regarding adding an image on a jazz.net forum post.   I can click the little link icon up there and firefox will let me browse the file, but the insert doesn't work.  I did the following with Opera on same workstation

Do you mean you can browse to the image file but the insert button is not enabled? I just posted an image in another answer using this way and it works and I am using FF 24 ESR. If this is not your concern, do you mean copy/paste the image directly to the post?

I also have never had problems with doing this with Firefox. I am currently using FF 31.1.1. I usually upload PNG files.

I also have my screen capture (Shutter) set to save png format.  I can browse to the file, but the instant I've picked the file, the dialog disappears.  The Insert is never allowed.

My firefox is the same version, but not the ESR variety.  I'll just have to launch Opera, I guess...

I have no idea unfortunately why it is not working for you. You can file a defect here.

Hi Kevin -- I also just tried this out in FF 32.0.3 and it worked fine. Maybe try clearing your cache and try again?

You have what  O/S ?   I'm on RHEL 6.5.
