# Browse image functionality missing…

 * I’m running wp on my win XP and up until 2.02 I was quite happy with the upload
   facility just underneath your post/page text. It gave me the ability to easily
   browse my photos/images. For some strange reason it doesn’t give me the option
   of browsing (link not visible “browse” and “browse all”) after upgrading to 2.03(
   uploads works fine btw.)
 * Are there some settings I’ve overlooked or something else I’m missing?? Couldn’t
   find any “switches” to activate this feature anywhere in the dashboard…
 * Any help is greatly appreciated!
 * Regards

 * The thing that seems to be the issue is that the inline uploader doesn’t provide
   the necessary communication on a Win platform. After uploading it doesn’t show
   in the “browse” or “browse all” tabs…
 * Anyone heard of this ?

 * I would just like to chime in and say I also have this problem on the win platform.
   The “Browse” tab just doesn’t show up at all for me.

 * Hi!
 * I had the same problem and it took me a while to figure the problem out.
 * My sytem:
    Windows 2K3 Server running MYSQL5 and PHP
 * The problem was, that wordpress doesn’t fit with the new MYSQL. It uploads the
   file and the thumbnail, but doesn’t make an entry in the database -> SOLUTION:
 * You have to set the value of 3 Columns from “NOT NULL” to “NULL”..
 * the columns are located in the table “wp_posts” and are named as follows:
    “to_ping”“
   pinged” “post_content_filtered”
 * After you modified the tables, apply the changes, and now things should work 
   just fine!
 * Hope I could help u out!
 * Best Regards
    Hermond B.

 * Thanks Hermond
 * Will do just that on my backup running on WinXP, otherwise I’m “home safe” as
   my server is running on Linux.
 * Thanks again!

 * I have the complete opposite problem, as my image uploader has a mind of its 
   own, one day its there the next it has gone completely anyone any ideas?
    Thanks
 * Dave
