How do I change protocol for Links?

Hi, I have made a custom file browser for links.

It insert the URL allright, but now I need it to also change the value of 'procol' to <other>, so that relative links will work.

What javascript function would I use for that?
(Have been searching a few hours for this function, but I can't figure it out).

Thanks,
Andreas

Noone knows this?

At least point to the right API to use in this situation. Please :-S.

I'm doing something similar at the moment, I've managed to change the protocol using this:

var dialog = this.getDialog();
dialog.setValueOf('info','protocol','');

You'll have to change the "this" depending on where you're calling the method from, in my example I was in the "validates" function of the "url" input. Let me know how you get the dialog if you're calling it externally.

Hope that helps.

Wow I made it! Thanks a lot.

Im using a file browser in an external window, so the following code worked for me:

var dialog = window.opener.CKEDITOR.dialog.getCurrent();
dialog.setValueOf('info','protocol','');

Where do I find the names of each element to use in this setValue function?

Glad you got it working, the names of the elements are defined in the "contents" of the plugin and relate to the "id" value that is set.

e.g: ('info','linkType')

return {
   title : editor.lang.link.title,
   minWidth : 350,
   minHeight : 230,
   contents : [
      {
         id : 'info',
         label : editor.lang.link.info,
         title : editor.lang.link.info,
         elements :
         [
            {
               id : 'linkType',
