mediawiki 1.15.1 error

Hi - I've tried this out on mediawiki 1.15.1 and it works, but it produces an error on the page that only says Error: bad URI in <img>!. Can you tell me how to fix this?

Getting the same error. The URI I am using is definately reachable. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Was having the same problem and figured out the solution. Where it currently has:

if (preg_match('/^http\:\/\/[\w\-_]+(\.[\w\-_]+)+([\w\-\.,@\?\^\=\%\&:\/\~\+\#]*[\w\-\@\?\^\=\%\&\/\~\+\#])?\.(jpe?g|png|gif)$/', $input)) {

replace with:

if (preg_match('/^http\:\/\/[\w\-_]+(\.[\w\-_]+)+([\w\-\.,@\?\^\=\%\&:\/\~\+\#]*[\w\-\@\?\^\=\%\&\/\~\+\#])?\.(jpe?g|png|gif|JPE?G|PNG|GIF|jpg|JPG)$/', $input)) {

This makes it work as intended, which is much better than any other external embed image function I've tried so far!
