Uploading Images using Fckeditor

In my previous Blog ,I did write about integrating Fckeditor in Visual studio Projects .
Today ,I will guide you about enabling the Image,Flash file upload in fckeditor.
Due to security reasons this feature is disabled by default .
Once you get the Editor working follow these steps to get upload working .....

1.Create a Folder named "userfiles" in the root directory and add two subfolders to it named image and flash .

2.Go to the web.config file ,In the appSettings write the following code .....

(appSettings)
( add key="FCKeditor:UserFilesPath" value="~/userfiles/"/)
(/appSettings)

3. Go to fckeditor/fckconfig.js and search for
var _FileBrowserLanguage and var _QuickUploadExtension
change the file type to 'aspx' like the below code

var _FileBrowserLanguage = 'aspx' ; // asp | aspx | cfm | lasso | perl | php | py
var _QuickUploadLanguage = 'aspx' ; // asp | aspx | cfm | lasso | perl | php | py

4. Now move to fckeditor/editor/filemanager/connectors/aspx/config.ascx
find the private bool Check_Authenticate () function
Here you need to tweak the code according to your needs .
If you want only authenticated users to access your browserfiles then add this code
return ( Session[ "IsAuthorized" ] != null && (bool)Session[ "IsAuthorized" ] == true );
//else you can make use of your own custom made function .

else an easy but a bad option is
return true;//not suggested

5. In the same file you need to define the path of your userfile folder .


// URL path to user files.
UserFilesPath = "/userfiles/";
//Absolute path to userfiles
UserFilesAbsolutePath = "C:\\Users\\Documents\\Visual Studio 2008\\WebSites\\ Website\\userfiles\\";

6. The Final Step ,pray to god that it works at last

It took me a week to figure out the way to integrate it and make it work finally ,I hope this Blog will make it a lot more simpler for you now .
I have used version 2.6 of Fckeditor , Visual studio 2008 and .net fx 3.5 for my project.
I hope it works the same with visual studio 2005 and .net fx 2.0.

If you still face any problem with it ,do mail me your problem and I will try to Fix it .
