After looking through the forum, it appears that "Browse Server" must be one of the most difficult things to set up correctly.
My simple question: How do I set up my config and/or connector files so that when an admin hits the Browse Server button, they will see the image files in my site's Gallery folder?
my path to the Gallery folder on my site:
MyDomain/Gallery
in case it matters, within that folder are other folders with the actual image files, such as:
MyDomain/Gallery/JohnSmith/photo99.jpg
I have a classic ASP site, but if someone has a solution in php or whatever, I should be able to get it from that.
Since it seems like quite a few people are struggling with this functionality, I hope that someone who knows the answer will post it, and then maybe the solution belongs in the documentation or FAQ.
Thank in advance for your help!

{edit} I edited out the file names and code, to simplify my request.

Re: Browse Server -
Oops, I'm new to the forum, and forgot to introduce myself!
My name is Dennis Leahy, I'm a programmer making a transition from desktop client-server stuff for small business to dynamic websites that are a bit too difficult for web designers without a programming and database background.
I'm new to the FCKeditor, but I am very impressed with the versatility, especially using custom templates and linking to CSS so the site admin can really get a good idea what the content will look like when published.
I was going to say that my favorite color is teal and that I like like long walks on the beach, but I'm not sure if anyone here has a goofy sense of humor like mine. Actually, with the wind chill, it is -31°F at the moment in Duluth, Minnesota, USA, so walking on a beach is more a dream than a joke!
Thanks in advance to the folks that participate in this forum, and are willing to help! Once I get up to speed, I will be happy to pop in here and answer any questions that I am able.
Take care,
Dennis
Re: Browse Server - solution
my path to the Gallery folder on my site:
MyDomain/Gallery
... within that folder are other folders with the actual image files, such as:
MyDomain/Gallery/JohnSmith/photo99.jpg
==================================
the solution:
In config.asp:
ConfigUserFilesPath = "/"
and
ConfigFileTypesPath.Add "Image", ConfigUserFilesPath & "Gallery/"

{edit} I forgot to mention that I I enabled the Write permission for my Gallery folder (which I set to include sub-folders as well.)
