image, link dialog

Good work on FCKEditor 2.0 but I very confused about how dialogs return values to the main editor window. My site require to use my own image/link dialog because I have a media gallery. So I will have 3 choices: image upload, image from URL and image picked from media gallery.

In FCK1 this was implemented this using window.showModalDialog wich is a Microsoft proprietary method. Now because of Mozilla the editor emulate the showModalDialog by handlnig some events.

Where is the point where the dialog returns the "returnValue" back to the editor? I'm very confused. How to use my own dialog for images and links? Parhaps in the next releases there will be a "config" option to change the standard dialog mechanism (?)

Any help will be apreciated. Thanx!

I just ripped the smiley button. Copied fck_smiley to den_smiley, used my own code, and the NICE little function (insert_html or some such) already being used by the fck_smiley dialog.

RE: image, link dialog

The dialogue for image is extremly buggy, if not to say unfinished. I had to rewrite alot of the code and add some functions of my own.
I would paste the code here but I'm afraid I have modified it to much for the project I'm working on so it's useless to anyone else.

anyway, the image dialog code is unfinished, dunno why

Re: image, link dialog

Anyone find a fix for this?

What I want is when you click on the image, or link image, to open in a new window my media manager...

Any help is appreciated!
