Quote Character being Changed in User Notifications

  1. I would like to add an image to a user notification. I added that following line to the message.

    <img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5183/5622249455_7fccc95115_b.jpg” >

    I then tested the notifiaction by filling out the form with my own email. When I received the email there was no image. I looked at the raw source of the email & found the following.

    <img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5183/5622249455_7fccc95115_b.jpg” >

    As you can see the final “ has been changed. When I go back to the form It shows the correct HTML.

  2. Your HTML didn't come through properly. Please copy-n-paste the HTML examples here: http://www.pastie.org/ and then post links to the examples so we can take a look.

  4. Looks like your original markup has a non-standard quote character at the end that the browser may be trying to reinterpret. Did you copy & paste that from somewhere else?

  5. Copied the markup from Flikr. Additionally, I am getting the same issue if I copy a URL for an image out of my WordPress media library. I will try to type it in manually & see if that makes a difference.

  7. Any luck with this? When I get the email notifications the image html is stripped and end up with this: <img>

  8. @Madmire Looking at your email notification settings it appears you have two issues. First the src URL to the image has a typo in the domain name so it has a / instead of a . before the .com. So the link is broken. But even when the src URL is corrected, the image still returns a 404 because there doesn't appear to be a live site at that URL.
