    I love Notepad++, but there's one thing that really bugs me. Unlike with most other text editors, I'm unable to drag and drop images from the file explorer into HTML. There must be a way to do this right? Or do I really have to write out <img src=....>

    Thanks!

      As far as I know, you have to type it out.  Autocomplete (control+space) can assist with entering the "IMG", but it's not worth the trouble for such a short word.

      I'm a little behind with my version, so there may have been changes in the latest, but I haven't heard about it.

      Notepad++ will always handle dropped files by opening them. Plugin windows may choose to do otherwise, but that wont help much. If you already have the path to the file typed out, there are plugins to enclose the text in an IMG tag, but afaik none have the ability to accept explorer files.
