Can't upload pics in editor

[cactusman]

I'm trying to use the webtease editor to make a standard webtease. But when I try to save the first page I get a message that I have to select and upload an image first. However, I had already done that and gotten the message that the file was uploaded successfully. It seems to be a bug. Can someone fix it?

Please help him. Cactus, your webteases are phenomenal; filled with erotic images and tantalyzing ideas.

I just tried it and it worked fine for me. Just to be clear - we're talking about regular webtease, *not* a Nyx/FlashTease?

Can you try a different picture from a different series and see if that makes any difference? Can you submit a client report so I know what browser, Flash etc. you're running?

I'm using
Browser: Firefox 12 on Windows!
Adobe Flash: Version 11.3.300
Window: 1280x921 in 1280x1024
With that browser I am still getting the same problem. I upload a file, and I see the message that it was uploaded successfully. Then I add some text, and click save page, and then I see the message:
"Please select a file and click Upload before submitting the form."
This happens no matter what image I try to upload, and what method I use to select it (from my own files).

I'll try again with a different browser...

Cactusman firefox 13 is out now.
Worth a try

[cactusman]

I was able to upload the picture using:
Browser: Chrome 19 on Windows!
Adobe Flash: Version 11.3.300
Window: 1280x933 in 1280x1024

So it must be some sort of browser problem. Unfortunately, Chrome is annoying to use for this task, as it doesn't keep paragraph-making blank lines when I paste text into the editor.

Thanks, Les, for the suggestion about Firefox 13, I'll try installing that...

I updated to the latest Firefox, which I filed another client report on. It's
Browser: Firefox 13 on Windows!
Adobe Flash: Version 11.3.300
Window: 1280x904 in 1280x1024
And I also tried running Firefox with all my add-ons disabled. But still I have the same problem with Firefox...

Hopefully the update rules out Firefox as the culprit.
If memory serves Seraph0x is playing around with the tease databases.

Shouldn't affect regular teases, those changes should only affect Nyx.

@cactus: I know you already tried disabling addons. But some kind of addon or extension-related problem is still the most likely culprit. Maybe try Safe Mode and see if that changes anything. Instructions here.

I have learnt in fault finding never assume,
Especially with regard to recent actions.

I'm working on a new flash tease, using firefox, I HAVE been able to upload pics so far... ?

I just tested out the classic editor and it uploaded a pic for me. I previewed it and it worked fine so hopefully the problem is fixed or it must be your browser like you said, and not the site.

Yeah I obviously tested in Firefox 12 and 13 in various configurations right away, I can't reproduce the problem so far. Waiting now to hear whether Safe Mode helps. If so, it's most likely an extension problem of some kind. If not, I'm a bit stumped to be honest, maybe a plugin (those are handled separately in Firefox) or firewall problem would be next on my list.

[cactusman]

I tried safe mode in:
Browser: Firefox 13 on Windows!
Adobe Flash: Version 11.3.300
Window: 980x891 in 1280x1024
and still have the problem that it seems to upload the file successfully, but when I click on "Save Page" it says that I have to first upload a picture (same error mentioned before).
So no joy there...

It kinda seems like the uploader Flash widget can't communicate with the host page. This is probably some kind of security-related issue. I've updated the security properties for the uploader, can you give it another try?

Are you running a firewall or antivirus software with a web filtering option?
