insert image path is relative. i need it to be absolute

Reply Quote

When inserting an image from the uploads folder, the relative path is inserted into the HTML markup. I need this image path to be the aboslute path.

I currently have this:

<CE:Editor ID="ceBody" EnableViewState="true" runat="server" UseRelativeLinks="false" RemoveServerNamesFromUrl="false">

</CE:Editor>

Please check this example:

Editor.URLType Property

URLType Enumeration

Specifies whether the URL should be converted to a site root relative path (/html/images/image1.gif) or an absolute path (http://www.mysite.com/images/image1.gif).

[Visual Basic]

Members

Member Name	Description
Default	The URL is not converted.
SiteRelative	The URL is converted into a site root relative path. A site root relative path describes the location of the destination file by describing the route the browser must take from the Web site's root folder (top level in the folder structure). For example, a site root-relative path to an image may appear as: /html/images/image1.gif
Absolute	The URL is converted into an absolute path. An absolute path describes the physical location of a file on a machine or the exact location of a file on the Internet. An absolute path on your hard drive might appear as: An absolute path might appear as: http://www.mysite.com/images/image1.gif

Hey thanks.

this only works if the user types in http://www.google.com

Is there a way to have it work correctly if the user types in just www.google.com

that is when it is directed to the root folder.
