Default EDGE. Url of images.

In IE11, I can get the URL of an image on a page
by clicking on it and then going to it's
properties and then selecting the image's URL,
which when pasted on to a fresh page gives the
image only.

Why cannot this be done with edge, or is there a
work-around?

It's possible to copy an image URL, but in the
year 2018, not all images or even text, are left open
for access. A web designer can lock them down, or
lock them down for someone using Adblock, and not
lock them down for an open browser.

I know you've done an apples to apples comparison, so it
could be that some subsystem is missing from MSEdge to "please"
the web site code enough to make access available to you.

But at least, there is a menu item to do it. It's there.
There's a "Copy Link" as well as an "Open in new windows"
for the image URL.

You can always make the browser full screen zoom the image to the point
it fits the screen then to a screen print, copy it to an image
processing program and save it where you want.

Using this process there is nothing the person who programs the web page
can do to prevent you from getting a copy of the picture.

As Keith said, there's no way to block an image
being saved if you can see it. But things can be complicated.
For instance, some pages now will use a dummy for the
IMG SRC, which is supposed to be the image URL. Then
they use script to load the image. So if you don't enable
script you don't see the image.
Which raises the question of whether Peter is trying
to get the exact same image in each browser. Given that
he asks frivolous questions on nearly a daily basis, I
don't know why you bother.

I think my choice of an easy-to-copy image was
a little too confusing. In retrospect.

You should be able to take a Wikipedia page
and get the right-click menu to work on it.

In MS-Edge...

"Copy Link" and "Open in new window" are not there when the HTML image
is not also a URL link.

When I visit an online newspaper, the HTML images are also URL links
to the corresponding newspaper article (or for ads, to the advertised
product). "Copy Link" copies the URL link to the newspaper article (or
advertised product), not the URL of the image. And "Open in new window"
opens the URL link / newspaper article (or advertised product) in a new
window, not the image in a new window.

Thanks, in IE11 I could get the URL of just the
image and send this off to a recipient without the
bother of Tinypic and similar programs. This was
less trouble, and faster.

Ask Microsoft. This is a user-to-user newsgroup, not a hotline to the
people at Microsoft who made this decision.

or is there a work-around?


Use Firefox, or Chrome, or one of the browsers built on either Firefox or
Chrome open source. Both Firefox and Chrome have what you want. Edge is
Microsoft's attempt to catch up with Chrome. But they haven't yet.

* Firefox: (right click on image) Copy Image Location
* Chrome: (right click on image) Copy Image Address
