Full path images not uploaded to Wordpress blog

[matthewdw]

I think this is actually a duplicate of the following bug but which I can reproduce -
#215

Create a .md document such as this -

# Testing for image upload
![test](file://C:/Users/matth/Documents/test.png)

When uploading to Wordpress the uploaded document reads as follows and the image is not uploaded at all.

<p id="pragma-line-0"><img src="/Users/matth/Documents/test.png" alt="test"></p>

Have to say, I had trouble reproducing this after using the product for a couple of days because all of the other (much more sensible) methods of embedding images work. I can only think I must have typed in the full path manually when I hit the bug originally. I think it all works fine when using the buttons to embed images. So wouldn't blame you for closing this as "user being stupid".

That still looks like a bug to me. There's no reason that MM shouldn't be able to resolve a local path and upload it the same way as a relative path. In fact it should be easier...
