Default file browser embedded with FCKEditor is very light.
I prefer AjaxFileManager, a rich browser / uploader / manager for your files, most intuitive.
But, in order to include it with your FCKEditor installation, you need to tweak some files.
When following directives here, step by step : http://www.phpletter.com/Our-Projects/Fckeditor-Ajax-File-Manager-Project/ , you will have to :
- put all the “ajaxfilemanager” directory in “filemanager/browser” directory of fckeditor
- edit fckconfig.js to get something like that :
- FCKConfig.LinkBrowser = true ;
//FCKConfig.LinkBrowserURL = FCKConfig.BasePath + ‘filemanager/browser/default/browser.html?Connector=’ + encodeURIComponent( FCKConfig.BasePath + ‘filemanager/connectors/’ + _FileBrowserLanguage + ‘/connector.’ + _FileBrowserExtension ) ;
//FCKConfig.LinkBrowserWindowWidth = FCKConfig.ScreenWidth * 0.7 ; // 70%
//FCKConfig.LinkBrowserWindowHeight = FCKConfig.ScreenHeight * 0.7 ; // 70%
FCKConfig.LinkBrowserURL = FCKConfig.BasePath + ‘filemanager/browser/ajaxfilemanager/ajaxfilemanager.php’ ;
FCKConfig.LinkBrowserWindowWidth = 782 ;
FCKConfig.LinkBrowserWindowHeight = 440 ;FCKConfig.ImageBrowser = true ;
//FCKConfig.ImageBrowserURL = FCKConfig.BasePath + ‘filemanager/browser/default/browser.html?Type=Image&Connector=’ + encodeURIComponent( FCKConfig.BasePath + ‘filemanager/connectors/’ + _FileBrowserLanguage + ‘/connector.’ + _FileBrowserExtension ) ;
//FCKConfig.ImageBrowserWindowWidth = FCKConfig.ScreenWidth * 0.7 ; // 70% ;
//FCKConfig.ImageBrowserWindowHeight = FCKConfig.ScreenHeight * 0.7 ; // 70% ;
FCKConfig.ImageBrowserURL = FCKConfig.BasePath + ‘filemanager/browser/ajaxfilemanager/ajaxfilemanager.php’ ;
FCKConfig.ImageBrowserWindowWidth = 782 ;
FCKConfig.ImageBrowserWindowHeight = 440 ;FCKConfig.FlashBrowser = true ;
//FCKConfig.FlashBrowserURL = FCKConfig.BasePath + ‘filemanager/browser/default/browser.html?Type=Flash&Connector=’ + encodeURIComponent( FCKConfig.BasePath + ‘filemanager/connectors/’ + _FileBrowserLanguage + ‘/connector.’ + _FileBrowserExtension ) ;
//FCKConfig.FlashBrowserWindowWidth = FCKConfig.ScreenWidth * 0.7 ; //70% ;
//FCKConfig.FlashBrowserWindowHeight = FCKConfig.ScreenHeight * 0.7 ; //70% ;
FCKConfig.FlashBrowserURL = FCKConfig.BasePath + ‘filemanager/browser/ajaxfilemanager/ajaxfilemanager.php’ ;
FCKConfig.FlashBrowserWindowWidth = 782 ;
FCKConfig.FlashBrowserWindowHeight = 440 ;//FCKConfig.LinkUpload = true ;
FCKConfig.LinkUpload = false ;
FCKConfig.LinkUploadURL = FCKConfig.BasePath + ‘filemanager/connectors/’ + _QuickUploadLanguage + ‘/upload.’ + _QuickUploadExtension ;
FCKConfig.LinkUploadAllowedExtensions = “.(7z|aiff|asf|avi|bmp|csv|doc|fla|flv|gif|gz|gzip|jpeg|jpg|mid|mov|mp3|mp4|mpc|mpeg|mpg|ods|odt|pdf|png|ppt|pxd|qt|ram|rar|rm|rmi|rmvb|rtf|sdc|sitd|swf|sxc|sxw|tar|tgz|tif|tiff|txt|vsd|wav|wma|wmv|xls|xml|zip)$” ; // empty for all
FCKConfig.LinkUploadDeniedExtensions = “” ; // empty for no one//FCKConfig.ImageUpload = true ;
FCKConfig.ImageUpload = false ;
FCKConfig.ImageUploadURL = FCKConfig.BasePath + ‘filemanager/connectors/’ + _QuickUploadLanguage + ‘/upload.’ + _QuickUploadExtension + ‘?Type=Image’ ;
FCKConfig.ImageUploadAllowedExtensions = “.(jpg|gif|jpeg|png|bmp)$” ; // empty for all
FCKConfig.ImageUploadDeniedExtensions = “” ; // empty for no one//FCKConfig.FlashUpload = true ;
FCKConfig.FlashUpload = false ;
FCKConfig.FlashUploadURL = FCKConfig.BasePath + ‘filemanager/connectors/’ + _QuickUploadLanguage + ‘/upload.’ + _QuickUploadExtension + ‘?Type=Flash’ ;
FCKConfig.FlashUploadAllowedExtensions = “.(swf|flv)$” ; // empty for all
FCKConfig.FlashUploadDeniedExtensions = “” ; - edit ‘config.base.php’ in ajaxfilemanager/inc directory and change these lines :
- define(‘CONFIG_SYS_DEFAULT_PATH’, ‘../../../../../../uploads/images/fckeditor/’); //accept relative path only
define(‘CONFIG_SYS_ROOT_PATH’, ‘../../../../../../uploads/images/fckeditor/’); //accept relative path only - //define(‘CONFIG_EDITOR_NAME’, (CONFIG_QUERY_STRING_ENABLE && !empty($_GET[‘editor’])?secureFileName($_GET[‘editor’]):’stand_alone’));
define(‘CONFIG_EDITOR_NAME’, (CONFIG_QUERY_STRING_ENABLE && !empty($_GET[‘editor’])?secureFileName($_GET[‘editor’]):’fckeditor’)); - patch ajaxfilemanager/jscripts/for_fckeditor.js with this new function (comment original ‘selectFile’ function) :
- function selectFile(absoluteurl)
{
//var relative=absoluteurl.split(document.domain);
var relative = absoluteurl.split(‘/uploads/’);
var url = ‘/uploads/’ + relative[1];if (url != ”)
{
window.opener.SetUrl(url) ;
window.close() ;
}else
{
alert(noFileSelected);
}
}
Hope this helps !
