Linking to image in the export doesn't work but it does on the server

[marksweb]

I'm setting up templates & processes to prepare our documentation on the server for delivery in the exported HTML format.

When viewing the page on the server in Confluence I can click on images & be taken to their source, but in the export there is no link.

How does confluence handle these links if they aren't in the exported HTML? Does it use the data-image-src tag somehow? My export looks like this;

<p><img class="confluence-embedded-image" src="attachments/1179860/1310774.png" data-image-src="attachments/1179860/1310774.png"></p>

If it helps I have a demo available; http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3755926/cssTricks/main.html

If I understand your question correctly, the thing that makes images "clickable" is the anchor tag. I recommend to compare the DOM between your display and export template, and add the anchor tags to your export as well, making the images clickable.

Yeah I was about to setup a bit of jQuery to bind things together & create the link that way, but I wasn't sure if you could do something with the editor to get confluence and/or the export process to do this for you to save me the job.

Do you know what I need to search the docs for on editing the export? I've found docs on customising the PDF export, but not HTML. I'm not sure if I have access to that at the moment, but its something I have been wanting to look at. Thanks :)

Are you exporting via Space Admin or via plugin that uses the "Tools" menu?

[marksweb]

From the advanced part with space admin as the tools plugin doesn't work correctly.

I've got my JS setup, but as I say, it would be easier to get as much as possible done by the export process, like adding my custom style sheets, js links etc.
