[Server-devel] EduBlog Image upload issue

Hi Greg,

I didn't do anything special.  When i click the button, Journal comes 
up.  I select a file and it goes into the GUI.  Perhaps the problem 
arises when Journal is used for a while.  Maybe mine has few entries so 
it doesn't hang.  It is however slow, and the system goes unresponsive 
for maybe 10 seconds.  I double checked and I indeed do have a 656 build.

I suppose then the problem is with Journal, so there is nothing I can do 
to fix it without XO code.  I'll investigate how copy and paste works 
for the editor.  However, due to security reasons, copy and paste 
buttons will not work unless I can change things on the XO. Ctrl c and 
ctrl v should be doable, but I need to make sure if it is possible with 
images and how long it would take to implement.

I've also copied the stuff over to edublog.venango.org/mockup/... same 
from there.

Thanks,
Tarun
