please help me because my wiki are using lots of images for links.

looks like moin creates an xhtmlish <img ... /> (note the closing slash) in a html4 document - maybe this is causing the trouble with IE8?

can you look at http://master18.moinmo.in/HelpOnImages - do the images there work for you? it is moin 1.8.8.

• yes it is working on this site (http://master18.moinmo.in/HelpOnImages).

can you look at http://master19.moinmo.in/HelpOnImages - do the images there work for you? it is moin 1.9.3.

• Yes it is also working. you know that i have configured two wiki on my side . one is test wiki and other is productive wiki and on both wikis the image links are not working. Komisch:(

Now i just downloaded the new zip packet of moin-193 and decompressed it and start the wikiserver and tried the image link and it is not working. i am waiting for any solution/workaround. Otherwise i will go back on moin_188. But the problem with moin_188 is that i cannot use Dictcolumn macro..Any help will be appriciated.thanks

Your problem is completely unclear and the testing above not even leaves a consistent picture about what's "working" for you and what's not. It's not even clear what "not working" means exactly.

• Look into your moin / web server log files
• Access the image url directly with the browser.
• Try to find what's different between working and non-working browsers.
• Try with and without special auth stuff and acls.

First of all Thankyou for giving me your precious time. Ok i try to explain once again my problem.

I have many wiki pages in which i am using images as a link. e.g.  [[CategoryHomepage|{{attachment:Tinku.jpg}}]] . When i go with my mouse cursor on the image, then mouse cursor changes from arrow shape to hand shape (it means, it recognise that it is a link) but if i click on this image, then nothing happens (providing no log, no error in server log files). Actually after clicking on this image, wiki should open the CategoryHomepage. Right?

My test Results:-

1/ you suggested to me to check the images link on following sites.

• http://master18.moinmo.in/HelpOnImages

• http://master19.moinmo.in/HelpOnImages

I can click on the image under the heading "Image as link button" on these sites and it opens http://master19.moinmo.in/HelpOnEditing page after clicking on it (this is the right way. it should work like this).

2/ I thought maybe it is because of apache or any other configuration problem. Therefore i wanted to test these LinkImages without this kind of configuration. Hence i downloaded the fresh "MoinMoin 1.9.3 tar.gz" from MoinMoin Download area and decompress it. Now i started the wikiserver.py by double click and access this wiki http://127.0.0.1:8080/. Now i created the new page with the following contents.
 [[CategoryHomepage|{{attachment:Tinku.jpg}}]] 

I am facing the same old problem. If i click on image, then nothing happens (actually it should go for CategoryHomepage). it means that it is the problem with moin_193 package. OR?

ImageLinks are working on those sites which you suggested to me, but image links are not working on my configured wikis/desktop wiki.

3/ Other tests

• Look into your moin / web server log files
  • There is no log available
• Access the image url directly with the browser.
  • image url working perfectly directly or i right click on the image and say open the url in the new tab or new window.
• Try with and without special auth stuff and acls.
  • Tried without auth and acls and the problem is still there.

Solution

I have found the problem. Oh my God. The shit python2.7 is not working correctly for image links. now i downgraded to python2.6.4 and image links are working.

Please compare the html you get from 2.6 and 2.7, it should be the same.
