View Full Version : Relative paths in [img] BB Code - is there a reason why it doesn't work?

In VB 2 you were allowed to have relative paths inside [img] tags...

example:

/forum/images/cstyle/blue/vblogo.gif


would work... but now in vb3/4 that's now allowed- the image won't parse without a full url like:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/images/cstyle/blue/vblogo.gif


My question is, does anyone know why? I can make my own [img] tag that works with relative urls just by adding a new bb code with the name: img.

Is there a security or other reason to not do this?
