on a mobile device.  I have both options checked in the responsiveness tab of the extras and add on's section.  The problem I am having is when posting a photo, it does some weird stuff.  A small box pops up by the insert image button, and then it refreshes the page.  After the page refreshes, I can add a photo like normal.  I don't know what it is doing, it is just a small hassle.  I am on android by the way.  Thanks for your help.

I think you're right. There does appear to be a bug.

I am used to seeing the "small box" appear as I have a satellite based internet connection and the latency I experience always shows that small box before it expands into the full Insert Image dialogue, so no problem there but...

I'm testing in my SeaHawk forum, http://www.seahawk17.org.uk/forum.htm which is embedded in my main site and has the "Redirect to" option set. This should make it impossible to jump out of the embedding. However, what is happening is that when you click the "New Topic" link it jumps out of embedding as it displays the "Post New Message" screen.
-----------
ASIDE: I'm testing on a Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini, which has a ridiculously small screen by modern standards so jumping out of embedding in these circumstances could be no bad thing if it all worked properly.
-----------
When I then tap the "Insert Image" button it does as you say, it completely refreshes the screen returning you to an embedded version of the site - and what is worse, any text you have entered on the non-embedded screen gets lost as it returns you to the embedded version. However, once back under embedding it does behave as expected - with the difficulties expect given the forum is embedded in a non-mobile-friendly main site.

I'll post a bug report in Premium Support.
