Images in Wikis

Is it possible to paste images into a Wiki   We tried to copy content from a Word doc that contained some screen shots and paste it into a Wiki.  None of the images copied over. What happens is the text copies over fine, but it does not copy over the images. It just leaves a blank where the image should be.
Any ideas

    Hi all,

    We used to be able to use the "Save as Web Page Filtered" trick to save word docs directly into the Wiki, but

    lately it no longer works and all the documents previously converted that way now have bad image links instead of

    images.

    Any idea what chagned, or what our IT folsk mgiht have chagned to cause this

    Thanks,

    Eric-

    That's an interesting solution, but you have to be careful about where those images are stored when the web page filtered page is created. So, if you created the word document on your hard-drive and save it as .htm, all it does is create a file structure to save the images as .jpgs and links to those images in your .htm. So, what may have happened is that the path that links to those images changed, causing the links to be broken. I would do a 'view source' on the page to see where those images are linked to...that should help you to figure out what went wrong.

    I saw this exact question from you in a Microsoft public newsgroup.

    (Where you received a reply that it was possible to upload images separately)

    Please don't post identical questions to both Microsoft public newsgroups *and* Microsoft public forums as there are the same people involved in both so it's unnecessary duplication.

    Instead if you insist on asking the same question twice, ask in the SharePoint University forums where there are a different set of people answering.

    It's true that the rich-text editor in WSS 3.0, which is used by the wiki, discussion board, and pretty much every SharePoint List or Library, does not support drag-n-drop (i.e. pasting from Word, specifically) or embedded images. Those are enhancements that we will consider for the next version of SharePoint.

    In the meantime, you might consider replacing the OOTB SharePoint RTE with the r.a.d.editor for SharePoint from Telerik.

    I got it to work. You need to save the Word doc as a "Web Page, Filtered" html page. Open that page in IE, copy the contents and then past it into the Wiki.
