Custom image gallery, returning values

Reply Quote

Hi,

Might seem very straight forward this, but we have written a custom image gallery page which is displayed instead of the built in one, we are also doing the same for the doc library, but very simply.... how do we return a section of code to the editor such as the <img src> tag or whatever.

Thanks

Andy

Andy,

Check this demo:

http://cutesoft.net/example/howto/AddButtons/cs/create_a_custom_button.aspx

The html source of the pop up is as following:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
    <head>
        <title>Insert Text</title>
    </head>
    <body bgcolor="buttonface">
        <div align="center" style="padding:8px">
            <textarea rows="6" cols="40" id="ta">Type content here</textarea>
            <br>
            <button onclick="button_click()">Insert It</button>
            <button onclick="window.close()" ID="Button1">Close</button>
        </div>
    </body>
    <script>
    function button_click()
    {
        var editor=window.dialogArguments;
        editor.ExecCommand("PasteHTML",false,ta.value);
    }
    </script>
</html>

Hope it helps.

Thanks Adam, I had looked at that one, but noticed it only works in IE.

Have you got any examples using a standard web form?

Thanks

Yes, the example only work for IE. You need to change the code to make it work for gecko based browsers.

If you can wait a few days, I will write an example for you to show you how to add your own image gallery,

Hi,

Did you get a chance to do a button with a pop-up aspx page which returns HTML to the editor?

Thanks

Andy

Hi Andy,

I have a followup question to this (which i suspect the original poster will soon run into :)

When you have added a image to the code, how can you prevent the "Browse" button to appear in the properties page. Ie. you add a image from a custom gallery (databasedriven), then right click on that image and select properties and next to the url you now have a browse button. This will not be a good thing if you (like we do) want to prohibit any form of upload except to a database.

Regards,

Henrik

henrik,

You can disable the browse button.

Try open the Tag_Image.ascx.

Change this line:

Before<td><button id="btnbrowse">[[Browse]]</button></td>

to:

After<td><button id="btnbrowse" style="display:none">[[Browse]]</button></td>

Keep me posted.

Yepp. that worked fine Adam.

I have run into a somewhat stranger problem. When inserting an image i use the example javascript code and all is fine. However..

When i read the text back from the database (it all looks fine in the database btw), it messes up the <img> tags in a most peculiar way. The dynamic url i have to retrieve the image looks something like this:

http://myserver.mydomain.se/myportal/ImageAdmin/showImage.aspx?id=1&width=200&height=230

(btw, bogus link so don't click :)

But, when it ends up in the code it looks like this:

http://myserver.mydomain.se/myportal/ImageAdmin/showImage.aspx?id=1&width=200

http://myserver.mydomain.se/myportal/ImageAdmin/showImage.aspx?id=1&width=200&height=230

Everytime i assign the Editor.Text property it seems to double the image url tags in this manner. Now i do absolutely nothing to the text before putting it into the editor. The actual code basically is:

Editor1.Text=_SQLreader["html"].ToString();

So it seems it must be the editor who parses it wrongly for some reason. Any ideas?

And it turns out that it was the AutoFormatting feature that was acting up. When i turned it off it works. Could be a good idea to have a look at that function though as that error is pretty illogical imho.
