How to delete files from the "Filebrowser"?

that's not available with the default filebrowser. You have to patch it or use another filebrowser.

Delete Files from the "FileBrowser" (ASP version)

Change file "fckeditor\editor\filemanager\browser\default\frmresourceslist.html"

oListManager.GetFileRowHtml = function( fileName, fileUrl, fileSize )
{
// Build the link to view the folder.
var sLink = '<a href="#" onclick="OpenFile(\'' + ProtectPath( fileUrl ) + '\');return false;">' ;
var sLinkDelete = '<a href="#" onclick="DeleteFile(\'' + ProtectPath( fileUrl ) + '\');return false;">' ;

// Get the file icon.
var sIcon = oIcons.GetIcon( fileName ) ;

return '<tr>' +
'<td width="16">' +
sLink +
'<img alt="" src="images/icons/' + sIcon + '.gif" width="16" height="16" border="0"><\/a>' +
'<\/td><td>&nbsp;' +
sLink +
fileName +
'<\/a>' +
'<\/td><td align="right" nowrap>&nbsp;' +
fileSize +
' KB ' + sLinkDelete + ' del</a>' +
'<\/td><\/tr>' ;
}

add this function
function DeleteFile( fileUrl )
{
if (confirm("Delete this file ?") == true)
{
oConnector.SendCommand( 'RemoveFile','DeleteFileName=' + encodeURI( fileUrl ).replace( '#', '%23' ) , DeleteFileCallBack ) ;
}
}
function DeleteFileCallBack( fckXml )
{
window.parent.frames['frmResourcesList'].Refresh() ;
}

I really hope that you have fully protected the authentication to access the filemanager and that none of your users wants to do something bad to you, because with the Server.MapPath(sDeleteFileName) call you are allowing to delete any file in your server, not just those in their "user files" folder.

First of all thanks to all who put these codes to allow deletion. But this does not work for ASP.NET. So I'll tell how you may add file delete functionality to FCKEditor in ASP.NET. I'll use first part of approach for ASP as a beginning:

Change file "fckeditor\editor\filemanager\browser\default\frmresourceslist.html"

oListManager.GetFileRowHtml = function( fileName, fileUrl, fileSize )
{
// Build the link to view the folder.
var sLink = '<a href="#" onclick="OpenFile(\'' + ProtectPath( fileUrl ) + '\');return false;">' ;
var sLinkDelete = '<a href="#" onclick="DeleteFile(\'' + ProtectPath( fileUrl ) + '\');return false;">' ;

// Get the file icon.
var sIcon = oIcons.GetIcon( fileName ) ;

return '<tr>' +
'<td width="16">' +
sLink +
'<img alt="" src="images/icons/' + sIcon + '.gif" width="16" height="16" border="0"><\/a>' +
'<\/td><td>&nbsp;' +
sLink +
fileName +
'<\/a>' +
'<\/td><td align="right" nowrap>&nbsp;' +
fileSize +
' KB ' + sLinkDelete + ' del</a>' +
'<\/td><\/tr>' ;
}

Then I'll change the next function a little bit.

add this function
function DeleteFile( fileUrl )
{
if (confirm("Delete this file ?") == true)
{
document.location.href = "../../connectors/aspx/foDelete.aspx?Command=DeleteFile&FileName=" + encodeURI( fileUrl ).replace( '#', '%23' );}
}

You can easily see that this results in a simple redirection to an .NET page called foDeleteFile.aspx (you can name it whatever you like). You may put that page anywhere you like in your project but you should not forget to update the URL used in above function accordingly. I prefered to put it under connectors/aspx folder to locate it easily.
The HTML code of that page should only contain a simple panel control between in its body tag to use for javascript embedding:

<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<asp:Panel ID="pJava" runat="server">
</asp:Panel>
</div>
</form>
</body>

And the code behind for page load event should be like that:

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
' Check security credentials. Replace this part with your security check code or remove it if you do not want any control at all
SistemAyarlariniAl()
If IsDBNull(Session("sOturumID")) Then Response.Redirect(sSiteURL.Replace(sKokKlasor, sYonetimKlasoru))

Dim sCommand As String = Request.QueryString("Command")

'If command string is empty redirect page

If sCommand = "" Then Response.Redirect(yourdefaultpage or any page you like)

Select Case sCommand
Case "DeleteFile"
Dim sFileName As String = Request.QueryString("FileName")
Dim sSiteURL As String = "http://www.yourwebsite.com"
Dim sRootFolder As String = "yourwebsitesrootfolder" 'Use "" if you are not using a subfolder as your web sites root
Dim sManagementFolder As String = "yourcontentmanagementsystemfolder" 'Use "" if you had put FCKEditor directly under your root folder

'If no filename is defined redirect page

If sFileName = "" Then Response.Redirect(yourdefaultpage or any page you like)
Try
sFileName = Server.MapPath(sFileName)
DeleteFile(sFileName)
Dim sJava As String = "window.onload=function(){window.parent.document.location.href='" & sSiteURL.ToLower(New System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US")).Replace(sRootFolder.ToLower(New System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US")), sManagementFolder.ToLower(New System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US"))) & "/editor/filemanager/browser/default/browser.html?Type=Image&Connector=" & Server.UrlEncode(sSiteURL.ToLower(New System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US")).Replace(sRootFolder.ToLower(New System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US")), sManagementFolder.ToLower(New System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US")))) & "%2Feditor%2Ffilemanager%2Fconnectors%2Faspx%2Fconnector.aspx';};"
ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(pJava, pJava.GetType(), "jsRefresh", sJava, True)

Catch ex As Exception
Response.Write(ex.Message)
End Try

Case Else

'Unrecognized command so redirect

Response.Redirect(yourdefaultpage or any page you like)
End Select
End Sub

That is as simple as that and works smoothly. I wrote original code in my native language (Turkish) and tried to translate variable names to English so I may have made some type mistakes. If so sorry.

I forgot to put my DeleteFile function to my previous message. It needs "Imports System.IO" lien to be put on top of code behind. Here it is:

''' <summary>
''' Deletes the submitted file from server
''' </summary>
''' <param name="sFileName">Full name of file to be deleted</param>
''' <returns>true if deleted, false if not</returns>
''' <remarks></remarks>
Function DeleteFile(ByVal sDosyaAdi As String) As Boolean
DeleteFile = False
Try
File.Delete(sFileName)
DeleteFile = True
Catch ex As Exception
End Try
End Function

jbressan, your code is spot on. Thank you for this, helped me out loads.
