Image placement in post (4 posts)

    Hi All,

    I have WP 2.7 running on my own server and everything is running great.

    However when I insert a picture into my post, it always seems to post at the "top" versus inserting it where my mouse cursor is.

    I wanted a paragraph, then a photo, then more text, then another photo, etc.

    I am using IE 7.

    Thanks!

    -Rob

    When you say IE7, does that mean it works with Firefox and Chrome?

    I am having the same problem as listed above.

    I typically write a post first with text, then add the images. The problem is I fight to get the images to post correctly. Is there an "art" to this or ????

    Here's what happens to me:

    I can usually insert my first image wherever the cursor is (middle of post somewhere, between text typically).

    After that, I pick another image from the gallery and click insert into post. Every image thereafter gets placed at the "top" of the post, no matter how many times I click to have the cursor amongst the text somewhere.

    Then, if I try to put multiple images in a row down (say 3 centered images like:

    --image1--
    --image2--
    --image3--

    I can never get them to stay tight, there is always an empty line between them unless I am very careful and hit delete or backspace with the cursor on the "correct" one side or the other of the image. Trying to move/correct the issue just merges images, deletes images and accidentally merges text from the post with the image caption, etc.

    This problem makes posting take forever! Any ideas?

    The posts I have are the result of many hours fighting this.

    Thanks,

    Just did a test of latest version of Firefox 3.6.3 and the posting behavior is much better - although not perfect it does allow posting of images directly where the cursor is located and the placement behavior overall works better.

    So I guess I'll have to have two browsers on my machine now!

    Thanks,
