Annoyance when seeing illustrations

Unread post by mgagnonlv » 2017-05-26, 02:22

Hello,
I wonder why pictures can't be seen directly in the forum.

In many discussion threads such as this one: viewtopic.php?f=29&t=15779 (1st message),
there are reduced illustrations. To show them full size, one needs to click on them.
However, when I click on the illustration, Pale Moon wants to download the illustration rather than open it directly in another browser window (the same happens with another browser).

In other forums, such as Mozillazine forum, the normal behaviour is that clicking on an image opens it either in a colorbox window (default) or in another tab. Can we get the same here?

I found a workaround, which is I have configured Pale Moon to open "jpg" and "png" files using a pre-defined application: Pale Moon. Still it seems strange that i have to resort to such a trick.

Thanks.

Everything works fine with those images here and I haven't done the sort of special configuring you've done.
