Re: Questions about images

By changing the "<media ... " tag to an "<img src=..." tag in the 
insertpicture popup, I can build an image tag that works properly on 
the main web site.

But the image tag doesn't show up at all in the editor.  Can you 
suggest where I might start troubleshooting this?

Thanks again,
Allie
