In reply to the discussion: How to post photos to DU (Rev. June 2020) [View all]SorellaLaBefana
(240 posts)51. Q&D HTML/JS (save as .htm on your computer) which pulls out URL from Flickr result, copies to sys clipboard
Had to make an image file to show the code, as even with [xmp] DU removes some tags (including [xmp] with the angle brackets).
Here is the code which survives, missing bits can be copied from the above image.
==================
Flickr Image Tag Extractor
body {
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
margin: 50px;
}
textarea {
width: 400px;
height: 200px;
padding: 10px;
font-size: 14px;
display: block;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
button {
padding: 10px 20px;
font-size: 14px;
display: block;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
#result {
padding: 10px;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
width: 400px;
height: 100px;
overflow: auto;
}

function extractImageTags() {
const input = document.getElementById('input').value;
const regex = /[img](.*?)[/img]/g;
const matches = input.match(regex);
let result = '';
if (matches) {
result = matches.map(match => match.replace(/[img]|[/img]/g, '')).join('n');
}
document.getElementById('result').textContent = result;
}
function copyToClipboard() {
const result = document.getElementById('result').textContent;
navigator.clipboard.writeText(result)
.then(() => alert('Result copied to clipboard!'))
.catch(err => alert('Failed to copy result: ' + err));
}

Facebook is an exception. You have to save photo and upload it and get its own new URL. Sorry

Nope. Notice nothing happens on that photo when you right click. It's embedded in HTML.
