FLAG problem

Post by MARIUS-FFB »

The following examples show the problem with the display of flag symbols in Forum and/or Eurobilltracker Website

Austria flag
:flag-at: (works as "smiley")
https://en.eurobilltracker.com/img/flags/Austria.gif (works NOT with the webaddress of Austria flag)

Finland flag
:flag-fi: (works as "smiley")
https://en.eurobilltracker.com/img/flags/Finland.gif (works NOT with the webaddress of Finland flag)

San Marino flag
:flag-sm: (works as "smiley")
https://en.eurobilltracker.com/img/flags/San Marino.gif (works NOT with the webaddress of San Marino flag)

I want to display an USA- flag on my EBT- profile but there are no "US-flag smileys".
The display of the flag does NOT work with the webaddress of the US-flag.
If I directly insert this flagsymbol address into the address field of the browser, the flag will be displayed.
But if I use this address in the Forum and/or Eurobilltracker Website, the flag will not appear.

NO, I don't want to use external sources for the flag.
And NO, "your" US flag has rounded corners - this is not the correct display of the flag.
The EBT- webpage already has all the flags of the world -> see
https://en.eurobilltracker.com/rankings/?b=countries

Why it is not possible to just take one of these?

The code is quite simple. When clicking on the country flag symbol, a link should open in a new tab of the webbrowser.

Code: Select all

<a href="https://en.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=96782911" target="blank"> :flag-es: </a>
In this case the flag will be displayed correctly because it is a "Smiley". But if I replace the "Flag Smiley" with the webaddress of the same flag

Code: Select all

<a href="https://en.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=96782911" target="blank"><img src="https://en.eurobilltracker.com/img/flags/Spain.gif"></a>
the flag will not be displayed, only <img>.

Why does the developer of the webpage prohibit this?

For testing I made a simple webpage and surprisingly the flag will be displayed with working link:

Code: Select all

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Testing of flag symbols</title>
  </head>
  <body>
   <a href="https://en.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=238903890" target="blank">
   <img src="https://en.eurobilltracker.com/img/flags/United States.gif">
   </a>
  </body>
</html>
