attachments with android

**finotti** · 06-10-2012, 05:38 AM

I can't see attached images when browsing with my android cell. Is there a way sound it? Works fine on my desktop.

Am I the only one with this problem? (If you are running Android's browser and you have no problems, please let me know.)

For instance in this thread I cannot see the attached pictures in the first post (by Marco), just a paper clip icon with "attache image" caption, but I can see the pictures in post #6 (by johnnypipe)... Is it just me?

Thanks,

Are you logged in on your android? I can only see some of the pictures on my android (not logged in) but I use my laptop most of the time.

Yep, I'm logged in...

Just a guess but is the mobile site set to show images?

I am not sure if you mean on the my (user's) end of on the administrator's end. I have it set to show in my settings, but it makes not distinction between mobile or desktop. If there is a particular setting for the mobile case, I could not find.

I was expecting (or hoping) some administrator to contribute... This side of B&B doesn't get much traffic, and I am wondering if it is just me or if it is a problem that should be addressed.

Have patience. The admins and mods have lives and jobs the same as the rest of us but I do know they check this forum on a regular basis so you'll get an answer. Eventually.

Maybe trying another browser can solve that issue in case you are using the standard browser in your phone.

Dolphin browser has exactly the same behavior. My guess would be some setting that says to not display attached images (maybe in the administrator's end, not user's)...

My android shows everything.

Even in the thread I've linked above you can see Marco's pics? If so, it must be something on my side...

May I ask what version of Android, phone and browser?

Thanks for letting me know!

I tried at lunch time with two different browsers, XScope and the default one in CM9 and I have the same issue that you're describing. I can't see Marcos original images but I can see johnnypipes images.

Ok..so the complicated thing about browsers is this...if your mobile phone is used..mobile version of sites will almost always run even if you click on "full site"..something will make it revert to mobile..if youre trying to upload photos from your mobile phone...good luck with that..if your on a desktop everything works fine..this is said to be true about tablets going to "mobile" versions..something in tablet/cellphones architecture/website encoding (both combined) in how files and browsing is handled..just my $.02
