Hi,

I just noticed a bug while using Firefox 3.0 : when you try to add a cast or crew photo, I can't just drag an drop it like I used to do while using Internet Explorer.

You have to right click / copy image / right click / paste image

Is that a known bug ?

Will it be fixed ?

Thanks for helping...

This is not a DVD Profiler bug, the program has not changed since this feature was available. I just tested this with Opera and IE. It seems You can no longer drag and drop the images in Windows XP SP3. You get just the forbidden.ico or it has to do with google, that no longer allows the images to be dragged and dropped.

It could be the website as well. some websites have apparently decided to try and make it difficult to copy their images. But...there are ways says the Shadow, aaaaaahhhaaaaaaaahaaaaahaaaa.

Think it is the operating system. When i drag and drop my avatar, i get this:
http://www.invelos.com/getopenresource.axd?id=160

looks like your only draging the internet addres and no longer the image

If I drag&drop your avatar from my Firefox 3 onto my MacOS X desktop, it drops the jpeg.

Yes, that should be the normal behaviour, but this is somehow changed in XP SP3?

Probably a "security feature" Microsoft implemented so you could only drag a picture from a Microsoft product to a Microsoft product.

There is indeed a difference with the new Firefox release. As I still have XP SP2... and I had no problem with drag and drop image to cast/crew pic with firefox 2... but no longer can with Firefox 3.

You can right click an image... click Copy Image... and then right click in DVDP and click Paste. That still works... just can't drag & drop it any longer.
