I'm using the FCKEdit in my ASP pages to replace a TEXTAREA (thanks to a great posting by Rene S on how to set this up).
Image Info and Upload, however, aren't working, and I'm not sure what to do. What I'm trying to do is allow my textarea user to actually UPLOAD a graphic that they're referencing in the HTML, and have that graphic display.
But I'm afraid i'm clueless. I get a "this connector is diabled" warning, with a note to check /editor/filemanager/browser/default/connectors/asp/config.asp. I've set the variable in there to true.
So here's my questions:
1.) I've created a /userfiles folder off my root to take the uploaded files. What permissions do I need to give that folder?
2.) Do I need to include the upload.asp file in my website anywhere, or is it getting called automagically by the FCKeditor?
3.) Do you have any other suggestions to help me get started with uploading the files?
Thanks in advance,
Tony

FCK will upload into its own directory structure.
It should be under your websites root directory.
The parent directoy is UserFiles
It has 4 sundirectories: File, Flash, Image, Media
Make sure you have the proper access rights for it.
All applications are going to be running under the IUSr account, so make
sure it has full rights to that directory.

Offhand, I'd say you need to reverse your thinking. Have them up load the
image, return the link to their TextArea. For an example of this, checkout
blogspot.com. That's basically what they do. You upload an image, they
store it where they want it to go, then an <img> tag is pushed back into the
TextArea. You can peek around in their javascript and see exactly how that
gets done. I can tell you there's an 'opener' object that let's the popup
image-uploader window communicate back to the main page (where the TextArea
is). Beyond that, I'm not sure what all they are doing. But it works
nicely and would be a good technique to emulate.
