Unable to update file attribute

Permalink
I have an image in the file manager that has an added attribute for a link/URL. I'm using this in a billboard block to make the image a clickable link. I already have 4 or 5 images in this set, all with a URL attribute added successfully. One particular image hangs after I enter the attribute and attempt to save it. I've tried deleting the image, re-uploading, nothing works.

What table in the database contains the attribute content? I should be able to simply add it to the appropriate record in the database just to get this billboard going for the client.

IN the meantime, any suggestions on troubleshooting? I've cleared the cache of c5 and my browser, tested on other browsers, same issue.

The URL the client was trying to enter was an offsite blog (blogspot, I think). If I entered any other URL, it would save to the database. If I entered the blog URL, it would just spin and spin.

What I ended up doing was creating a redirect in a single php page named 'blog-redirect.php':
<?php
// Permanent redirection
header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently");
header("Location:http://credo2011.blogspot.com/"...);
exit();
?>


and entering the blog-redirect.php URL. It's a hack, but it works, the client has what they want.

Would C5 try to actually resolve the URL before it would save? I'm thinking there was some issue with subdomains at the blogspot site.
