This is kind of cool -
I was playing with FCKeditor today, trying to get the Image/File
Browser to work - I couldn't really get my head around what the heck
was going on
If you have FCKEditor working, try this (YMMV), if not, here's how to
get it going in Dada Mail:
http://mojo skazat com/support/documentation/ Config pm html#fckeditor_integration___fckeditor_url
To add to these instructions:
* In the FCKEditor directory you uploaded in your hosting account
delete:
* _samples
* _testcases
directories (security purposes)
I'm a Perl guy, so I'm going to be using the Perl connector
You have
to open up the, "fckconfig
js" file and change this line:
var _FileBrowserLanguage = 'asp' ; // asp | aspx | cfm | lasso |
perl | php | py
to:
var _FileBrowserLanguage = 'perl';
Next, navigate to:
editor/filemanager/browser/default/connectors/perl
and change the permission of every file with either a, "
cgi" or,
"
pl" extension to, "755"
For my account, this directory isn't a
directory that you can execute cgi scripts, but if I do this step,
somehow it all works
Mysterious
Open up the, "connector cgi" file, find this line:
&SendError( 1, 'This connector is disabled
Please check the "editor/
filemanager/browser/default/connectors/perl/connector cgi" file' ) ;
And comment it, remove it:
# &SendError( 1, 'This connector is disabled
Please check the
"editor/filemanager/browser/default/connectors/perl/connector
cgi"
file' ) ;
Still with me? OK - (whew) Open up "basexml pl" and find this line:
print '<CurrentFolder path="'
ConvertToXmlAttribute
($currentFolder) '" url="' ConvertToXmlAttribute(GetUrlFromPath ($resourceType,$currentFolder)) '" />';
and change it to:
print '<CurrentFolder path="'
ConvertToXmlAttribute
($currentFolder)
'" url="'
'http://yoursite
com'
ConvertToXmlAttribute(GetUrlFromPath($resourceType,$currentFolder))
'" />';
where, "http://yoursite com" is the URL of your website
Once it's all up and running, you can navigate to "Send a List
Message -> Advanced" (among other places) and get the WYSIWYG editor
Here's how the "Insert/Edit Image" thingy works:
Click the, "Browse Server" button
You'll get this odd, empty file
browser looking thing
It doesn't show anything, but you can select
an image/whatever on your desktop and upload it to your account! Cool!
Click the, "Browse
" button at the bottom of the screen, select an
image and click, "Upload"
That image will now show up in the file browser! Click on it and the
file browser goes away and you get a preview of the image
Click, "OK" and the image will be inserted into your message
Nice
Now, to have this image be embedded into your newsletter and sent
within the image as an attachment, do all these steps, not in the,
"Send a List Message -> Advanced" screen, but in the, "Send a
Webpage" screen:
Check the, "Use the following HTML as content: " option
Do the above steps to insert an image
In the, "Send a Webpage" screen, click, "Show/Hide Advanced Options"
and select,
( Images in this Webpage Should:) "be embedded in the message itself
"
So, that's been a frequently requested feature - with a few tweaks,
you can author a Rich Text message with embedded images right in Dada
Mail
It's a little funky, but tell the FCKEditor folks :)
Hope that helps someone, let me know if I can clarify and let me know
how it works for you :)
