Import graphics from web fails

[krelvin]

Upgraded to 5.1... now when I try to use Import Graphics From Web, it always fails.

Ends up saying...

There was a problem downloading the URL
"....". Make sure the URL is spelled correctly and check
your Internet connection.

This is a function that I use ALL the time with Xtreme 4 and older. Images are from anywhere, including my own servers. no errors show in the weblogs indicating this is not actually getting out.

Firewall turned off, same issues.

Any idea what the issue is?

Still using the E Version as I doubt the CD will be here for a while.

Version: 5.1.0.9131 DL

Just tested that function for the first time ever. Typed in URL and the image was there in a split second.
I typed in a nonexisting URL and got that error.
Can you confirm that you are able to see the image if you use that URL in a browser ?

Hi krelvin,

Good suggestion Juergen

Also, is the function still working fine in Xtreme 4 using the very same URLs?

Finally, which OS are you using and which AntiVirus?

Working fine with my 5.1.0.9131 DL version right now.

Well... it is working now.

Not really sure what was going on... The CD showed up today which as a bit of a surprise as I didn't think it would be here for a while.

Even after loading the version off the CD it still works so I"m not sure what the issue was.

Thanks for the replies...
