If there's already a way to do this I haven't found it, but it would be convenient for the "Upload Image" link/routine to insert the img tags and data where the cursor was last in the message instead of at the very bottom of the message window.
I often find myself composing a post then inserting an image (or images) after the text is done, and where I want the image is seldom at the very bottom of the post.

Never really had much problem with this, but you can cut and paste the picture text anywhere in your post.

I usually type the opening text, then upload all pictures and insert clarifying text between the pic URLs and then Preview to make sure all is well.
Edit: I use my phone for everything here, so that may not help.

It would just save a few operations per image to not have to do that. Not a huge deal, just something that occurs to me when I'm composing a post with multiple photos. Quote:

But it still seems like it would make sense to insert the img tags where your cursor was when you clicked the "upload image" link, even if it happens to be at the bottom. Though I suppose that could result in images inserted into odd places if the author left their cursor in a weird spot after an edit, which would require a cut/paste operation like the one I'm trying to avoid.

I use a computer, and when it puts a big space in between my cursor and pic, I put my cursor at beginning of picture URL and hit backspace a couple times. It's faster than cut and paste imo.

I'll take a look at it, but it's done with javascript which is not my strong suit.

I believe the insert smilie routine already does that, so maybe start looking for the appropriate code in that section.

Yes, good thought/observation. In fact most of the insert routines do, such as insert link, italics, bold, etc. The only difference is those are on the same page as the textarea where the image insert is a postback (if that's the right term) from a different page.

Yep, I was playing with it and that seems to be an issue. |
