[Solved] Adding an image while writing a page?

[simon_a]

Hi,

is it possible upload a new image while writing a page, or do I have to first use the Image Manager, and then start writing the content?

Image Manager first, although you could open two browser tabs onto the Admin program and have one for writing and one for image Manager?

[simon_a]

Ok, thanks for that Russ. Not as intuitive as other systems that I have used, but I'm not complaining

you can use FCKEditorX module and using that you can include or upload and include images for sure and very easy

Thanks Connie. I installed FCKEditorX, but it's showing up strangely, the toolbar is just some messed up text. It's probably incompatible with the lastest CMSMS.

[Connie]

it is not at all
but somewhere in the forum is written already and I wrote it as well, but forgot to tell you:

edit the editor configuration and set a width and height in pixel, do not keep "default" there

so will get the magic FCKEditor and you can integrate images very comfortabley with that editor

As a follow-up, I hacked together a solution using the simple javascript mentioned here:
http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/punbb/view ... p?id=11640

Code: Select all

I wrote our own image manager completely outside of TinyMCE. I call it from within the image.htm file by adding this line:

<a href="path/to/my/filemanagerapp.aspx" onClick="window.open('path/to/my/filemanagerapp.aspx', 'imageBrowse', 'toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,status=yes,menubar=yes,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,copyhistory=no,width=600,height=650');return false;" title="Browse or Upload image">upload/select an image</a>

And then I send the particular image back to TinyMCE via this:

<a href="javascript:;" onclick="window.opener.document.getElementById('src').value='/path/to/my/image.gif';javascript:window.close();">
image.gif
</a>
