With 4.2.2.1 windows

Pictures in Writer and Html documents linked to a http location no longer opens and can no longer been inserted what makes the use of images in a HTML doc imposible

A picture "linked" to "http://pmg.pmgroup.be/enews/idb/grafiek9.jpg" can been opened and viewed in a writer and Html doc until 4.0 but no longer since 4.2

you can use the link to test

is it a bug or wanted behaviour ?

Fernand,

I just tried this in 4.2.2.1 as well, and this works just fine: I
created a new file and inserted an image through insert image from
file.

Met vriendelijke groeten, Salutations distinguées, Kind Regards,

Could this be related to this discussion:
   http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/msg36731.html
and bug 60415:
   https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60415
?

If so, a workaround may be to use Paste Special and select Bitmap format. This would break the link to the original URL, and embed a copy of the image in the document. Whether or not that's acceptable to you obviously depends on what you're aiming to do.

Doesn't seem to affect all images, but the exact set of conditions for an image to cause a problem isn't clear...

Mark.
