Insert From URL — TIFF

I’m trying to use Insert From URL to load a tiff image into a container. (The URL does not have a .tiff extension.) The result displays the file name, not the image.

If I manually download the image to my hard drive and then use “Insert Picture” the image will display properly.

Any ideas?

I figured out the problem. I downloaded the “image” into a text field. It was html referencing a redirect. So, I added a redirect flag to the curl options. This fixed the problem.

EDIT: I also used “get last error” and received Error 734 ("This file type cannot be displayed as a picture.”)
