Using CSS in Image Macro doc is broken

[anonymous]

I use CSS in the ImageMacro, but since upgrading to 0.9.5 (on debian) I have noticed it is not working. To be specific, I use the following code [[Image(photo.png, float:right)]], which used to display the image on the right. I have seen the bug fix regarding image sizes and percentages, but that fix does not resolve this problem.

The syntax has changed slightly. It should be:

[[Image(photo.png, align=right)]]

to get a "float: right" image.

I thought that I fixed the doc… Ok, only in 0.9-stable (if you're using 0.9.5, check again your [[MacroList(Image)]] doc).

I'll port that to trunk.

I have a similar issue where I have been using padding-left:10px or similar variations of padding: for a number of my images. It has been very useful in getting the right amount of space between image and text when the text flows around it.

This no longer works with version 0.9.5 due to the security tightening of the macro. Could you please add support for padding?

As we don't want to have to sanitize user-supplied CSS properties in the [[Image]] macro, we have restricted the supported options down to a minimum. If you want extra styling, I would recommend using a class and then define the corresponding style rules in your custom CSS style sheet. The other option is using an #!html block…

While adding back support for specific style properties such as padding is not completely out of the question, I view that as a slippery slope: next we'll need padding on other side, borders on either side, margins when aligned, etc. Where would we stop?

Ported documentation update from 0.9-stable in r3353.
