custom imagegallery url

Reply Quote

Hi, is there a way I can add parameters to the image gallery URL ?

For example when I click on the image gallery icon I go to:

http://localhost/CuteSoft_Client/CuteEditor/Dialogs/InsertGallery.aspx?setting=!3wEWAgUFZW4tdXMFAyRhMR1W!1fYBoV3V5TruSoZGE7o9K548&Theme=Office2003&Dialog=Standard

I want to add to the url:

&Site=22 (where the site number is variable based on the page)

thanks

Joel

Joel,

It's possible only when you set the to UseStandardDialog property true.

Editor.UseStandardDialog Property

If you want to use standard popup windows for all dialogs, set this property to true.

Demo:

ok, so if I set the property to true and use the standard dialog, how do I pass the additional url parameters?

Open insertGallery.aspx file and modify the following code:

string FrameSrc="InsertGallery.Aspx?IsFrame=1&"+Request.ServerVariables["QUERY_STRING"];

The problem with this is that by the time I get to this code inside insertGallery.aspx the request is for the new window and not the cuteeditor window, so my variables are lost. For firefox I could use UrlReferrer but that doesnt work on IE.

Any other ideas, I need to add the variables to the link before the user clicks the image gallery button.

I really dont want to use the session because in our app the user can have multible browser windows open and using this method could create cross posting of images (this is what I am trying to fix actually)

thanks

Joel

Please use Editor.DNN_Arg Property.

DNN_Arg="portalid=111";

Hi,

I tried this, it seems to have no effect on the URL, am I supposed to retrieve the variable somewhere? Can you give me more guidance?

thanks

Step 1:

<CE:Editor id="Editor1" DNN_Arg="Size=111" runat="server"></CE:Editor>

Step 2:

Open CuteSoft_Client\CuteEditor\Dialogs\InsertGallery.aspx

And add the following code to print out the query string:

HttpContext.Current.Response.Write(Request.ServerVariables["QUERY_STRING"]);

Hi Adam, I did these exact steps, and my querystring does NOT contain Size=111.

Is this only for DNN (Dot Net Nukes?), I am running in a regular .NET 3.5 environment.

Any ideas why its not coming through?

Which version of Cute Editor are you using?

The property can be used in any projects.

I should note, I do see the editor attribute, and I am able to set it either in the definition or the onLoad of the page that the cuteeditor is defined in, its just that I dont see it effecting the querystring used to open the image dialog.

Try version 6.2 and create a separate application for testing.

ok, when I upgrade to 6.2, is there any easy way to update the client files, we have made lots of changes to configs that I dont want to get lost, can you tell me what files changed between 6.1 and 6.2 on the client side?

tahnks

Joel,

Can you create a separate application for testing? We updated many client files in version 6.2 to fix some minor bugs and requests. If you don't care, version 6.1 client files will also work for version 6.2.

ok, 6.2 inside my app doesnt seem to work either, but if I create your demo it does work fine. What could be happening in my app to make it not work any config changes or other ideas?

Changing the configs 1 by 1 will take days, and I am very frustrated with cute editor at this point and about to give up!

thanks

Joel

Joel,

Please check the web.config of your application.

Are you using some tools like URLrewriter?

I was using urlrewriter, but I turned that off and no changes, I tried removing just about everything from my web.config and I tried placing the editor on a blank page, nothing works within my application.
