On my web application I use FCKEditor to edit news. The FCKEditor is using KCFinder for browsing the server for files or images.
In the config.php (FCKEditor->connector->browser) I configured the UserFilesPath and the UserFilesAbsolutePath. The UserFilesPath contains the full http://www.domain.tld/images/files/
path and the UserFilesAbsolutePath contains the same path but with document root instead of the tld.
But when I go to FCKEditor window and try to add a link to a text, first the dialog opens, than I click on Browser Server and when I double click on a file I get back to the dialog box with a path like this: /images/files/xyz.pdf
(e.g.).
Actually I would need the path like this: http://www.domain.tld/images/files/xyz.pdf
Please review the scenario and provide some solution.
StartupPath is a property of the CKFinder object. See documentation for more information.
There is a working example included in the CKFinder package that shows how StartupPath can be used: "_samples/js/popups.html".
StartupPath can be used in a similar way when CKFinder is attached to FCKeditor with the SetupFCKeditor method.
In javascript you can use also the following syntax:
CKFinder.SetupFCKeditor( oFCKeditor, { BasePath : '/ckfinder/', StartupPath :
'Images:/path/to/directory/' } ) ;
So, for a fully working example of setting StartupPath when CKFinder is integrated with FCKeditor, just follow these steps:
_samples/js/fckeditor.html
(add double slash - "//"): //CKFinder.SetupFCKeditor( oFCKeditor, '../../' );
CKFinder.SetupFCKeditor( oFCKeditor, { BasePath : '../../', StartupPath : 'Images:/directory/' } ) ;
where "Images:/directory/"
is a valid startup path and it should work.
