Using File Browser/uploader separately

I am researching this too. I currently use the FCKEditor in all its glory, but I want to use just the uploader to replace a legacy part of my app

I have been able to use the File Browser part of FCK separately by using the LinkBrowserURL directly. Example,

<server/context>/FCKeditor/editor/filemanager/browser/default/browser.html?Connector=connectors/jsp/connector

This works when I use an anchor to open a new window. However I can't seem to get it to work in a popup window by using the javascript fuction for window.open(...). I want to use a popup to make the navigation more consistent (similar to clicking "Browse Server" in the link window. This will also allow me to make the URL for the connector much less obvious.

I've brought in much of the code from the fck_link.js BrowseServer() function but I cannot get the window.open to work. From what I can tell it's not a popup blocking problem from the browser and I have no JS errors getting output to the console.

Is this some limitation of the how the file browser utility is set up? If anyone has any suggestions please pass them along. Thanks.

Filebrowser uses a function called "SetUrl" to return the selected filename to a form, you must make a function called "SetUrl" that have "url" as a parameter, like this (in your html-document):

<script>
function SetUrl(url)
{
document.frm.txtFile.value=url;
}
</script>

Then start the filebrowser like this in your form:

<form name="frm">
<input type="text" name="txtFile">
<input onClick="Javascript:window.open('../fckeditor/editor/filemanager/browser/default/browser.html?Type=Image&Connector=connectors/asp/connector.asp','Filebrowser','width=800,height=600');" type="button" name="Browse">
</form>

Hope it helps!

Thanks I was just looking for this as well, and that did the trick.

I'm using this to pull in the URL for images on my server, I notice there's a function:

SetUrl( url, width, height, alt )

I don't care about the alt text, but the width and height would be nice.

How do I modify Javascript:window.open('../fckeditor/editor/filemanager/browser/default/browser.html?Type=Image&Connector=connectors/asp/connector.asp','Filebrowser','width=800,height=600') to be able to have it call SetUrl( url, width, height, alt )?

Thanks
