Insert File link not working in htmlarea

In creating a content page using the 'insert a link' to a file the wrong path is inserted. I have a file uploads/training/document.doc the link created in htmlarea is training/document.doc the uploads part is missing in the link.

Anyone have a fix ? :cry:

Forgot to add - I checked the config.php file and the paths to the uploads directory are correct.
:mrgreen:

Thanks to rummy posting the other bug (60) I figured it out:
htmlarea/plugins/insertfile/config.php
Line 159

Code: Select all

$MY_LINK_FORMAT         = '<SPAN CLASS="filelink"><IMG SRC="_editor_urlplugins/InsertFile/IF_ICON" ALT="IF_URL" BORDER="0"> <A HREF=' .$MY_URL_TO_OPEN_FILE. 'IF_URL>IF_CAPTION</A>  </SPAN> ';
I also added the htm extension in lines 61 and 69

This almost works.


Does not handle files with spaces in the file name ???

htmlarea is a very frustrating tool!

Fixed right this time :D :D :D

Simple solution:

Added 'uploads' to line 159 of htmlarea/plugins/insertfile/config.php

$MY_LINK_FORMAT = ' IF_CAPTION  IF_SIZE  IF_DATE ';

Now filenames with spaces even work !!
