@sbonnegent m['html'] is '' unless you do self.register_plugin('xep_0071') in __init__

Oh, it works now, thank you @s-nt-s ! I didn't see it in doc.

there are any android client that supports BOB?

is it possible to send image as an attachment ? because when i try 'sending image with OOB' jabber receiver receives the image but its coming as an unsupported image format .
