Hi,
Within the Articles Management System I have created I want to create a resources management system. This will allow a user to add related files to a particular articles for download (i.e. .pdf, .zip files etc.)
Implementing such functionality into my application shouldnt be too complex, as the name of the file, description and relating article ID will be stored in my db.
My question is whether it is possible to use the FileBrowser control built into FCKeditor for other uses. When the user creates a new resource I and needs to select the related file I would like to open Browse.html, select my link and return the path of the file back to my aspx form.
I dont need anything as complex as CKFinder (although my requirements may change in the future). My real requirement is to display existing files in a directory as these files are likely to be uploaded via ftp into a specific directory.
I could accomplish this by creating my own directory listing control but as the functionality is already there in FCKeditor wondered whether it is possible to achieve such a thing?
Thanks,
Ben

Re: Using the filebrowser
retroviz - did you find a way to do it?
Re: Using the filebrowser
Please view the following: http://wiki.fckeditor.net/Developer%27s_Guide/Configuration/Built_in_File_Browser
and look at "Using the File Browser outside of FCKeditor"
I am actually having problems getting this working (as only started looking at it this morning) so please see my next post in the forum if you run into the same issue.
Thanks,
