Can't Copy and Paste Images

Hello Newb Here:

I can't copy and paste my images from a program like MS word, all I get are the hreferences... is it possible to do what I'd like to do? I could swear I've seen it in the works before... but I can't get it to work at all!

Here are the plugins I have loaded: 'ContextMenu', 'FullScreen', 'SpellChecker', 'HtmlTidy'

When I tried to install the imageManager plugin, I couldn't get the editor to show up at all!!
Edit: I got the imagemanager installed... and to no avail... it didn't work at all!

I'm sorry this is probably a really simple answer... but I'm extremely frustrated at this point, if any of you could help me I'd greatly appreciate it!

Thanks!

Michael

Re: Can't Copy and Paste Images

You cannot simply copy and paste an image from a word document into your HTML, it simply is impossible.  You have to upload the file to the server, and link it.  You can use the ImageManager plugin to do this, or the ExtendedFileManager, or InsertPicture.  These plugins will all require PHP to be available on the server, and appropriate permissions set on the directory you are uploading images to.
