Hi All,
I've been struggling getting the image browser to work for some time, and I've finally gotten it to work, but when I look at the images all I get is the file name. I've seen that it is possible to get thumbnails. How do I turn this on? Any pointers?
Sincerely,
-Josh

It looks awesome.. but i dont see how I can use it....

Dan, thanks

yes, it's for PHP. It would be interesting to have an ASP port for it, but there's quite a bit of work involved in it, so I would be wary of that!
Sorry you can't use it yourself. Maybe there will be a port at some time in the future.
RE: Thumbnails in image browser - how?
So back to the orignal question of does anyone have a way I can use the FCKeditor to view thumbnails...
Thanks..
RE: Thumbnails in image browser - how?
In order to view the create the thumbnails you need an image library (DLL). If you don't have one then I suggest
"GFL SDK is a free library (used by XnView) for developers who would like to support graphics image formats easily."
http://perso.orange.fr/pierre.g/xnview/engfl.html
It works great with ASP and that library even has it's own forums.
Once you have the code to create thumbnails then you will need to edit the following files:
\fckeditor\editor\filemanager\browser\default\frmresourceslist.html
\fckeditor\editor\filemanager\browser\default\connectors\asp\connector.asp
\fckeditor\editor\filemanager\browser\default\connectors\asp\commands.asp
What exactly you do I'm not too sure. I have not do this yet, however I did add the ability to rename and delete files and folders by editing the above using this page http://www.bram.us/2006/10/18/my-tinymc ... te-option/ as a referance.
RE: Thumbnails in image browser - how?
i have found this site...
http://mcpuk.net/fbxp/
and have tried to see if i can get the thumbnail part to work for ASP.
I can not get this to work still, maybe I am doing something wrong. please if anyone else is looking to do this in asp see if you can make it work...

RE: Thumbnails in image browser - how?
I guess it used to work but i cant get it on now..
i dont think it was part of the distribution..
RE: Thumbnails in image browser - how?
Does anyone know what code has to be added to the exact pages...
I am finding it hard to believe that everyone who has used this fck editor has never had a got around this thumbnail problem
RE: Thumbnails in image browser - how?
"But to use this add on one needs to install a piece of software" - As far as I know classic ASP/ASP 3 does not come with an image library, so YES you'll need to install something on the server if you want thumbnails generated on the fly. That is unless you want to change the width/height for the HTML image tag.
However ASP.NET does have an image library, so you don't need to install any other software.
Thumbnail creation is not that big of a deal, I have ASP code that uses the GFL SDK library to generate thumbnails on the fly, the trick is adding that to the File Browser. I know that you will defiantly need to change this file \fckeditor\editor\filemanager\browser\default\frmresourceslist.html. Change "oListManager.GetFileRowHtml" in frmresourceslist.html to change the way the Fire Browser displays the file names.
I'm sure that the GFL SDK forums has sample code that you could use to create thumbnails on the fly.
Have you noticed that the file browser does not have any delete or rename capabilities? Using http://www.bram.us/2006/10/18/my-tinymc ... te-option/ as a reference you should be able to add these functions.
Thumbnails integration is nice and all however I'd put priority on allowing people to rename files/folders and delete files/folders.

i am using asp..
RE: Thumbnails in image browser - how?
frmresourceslist.html is also the page that you need to edit to change the way the files are displayed. You will need to change oListManager.GetFolderRowHtml to change how the folders are displayed. You will need to edit oListManager.GetFileRowHtml to change how the files get displayed.
I suggest that before you try to do the thumbnail thing that you create a simple asp file that accepts a file name via the querystring and resizing it. This sort of thing could be used for other sites/pages as well that do use FCK.
