Hyperlink popup from a database?

Reply Quote

Can the hyperlink popup be programmed to pick up pagelistings from the database rather than a folder?

I am creating a mini CMS system and I have all the pages stored in the database. So when the user wants to link a page it will be nice to list pages from this database.

Thanks a bunch

AJ,

Yes. You can.

Please following the steps below:

1. Open Tag_A.ascx file. And change the following code

<button id="btnbrowse">[[Browse]]</button>

to:

<button id="btnbrowse" style="display:none">[[Browse]]</button>

2. Add your own browse button.

<button id="mybrowsebtn" onclick="myfunction()">[[Browse]]</button>

Hi, I'm trying to implement the same functionality, where I populate the hyperlink popup "url browse" on add/edit from database.

where do I implement my myfunction() method which is triggered on browse click button?

Note: I'm building a cms, what i'm trying to accomplish is once the url browse button of hyperlink popup is clicked, i would query db for available web page ids and display to user for selection.

Once user selects a certain page, i would write result to the url textbox, value of textbox would be something like showpage.aspx?webpageid=1

Is this doable? Also In order to implement this do I have to purchase the Source code license?

Much Thanks for your help

}

</script>

In the above funtion, you can open a dialog. In the dialog window, you load links from your DB. The return value will be the selected URL.

Adam,

I modified tag_a.ascx to open a new window to select a page to create a link for.

In IE7 when I set the values for inp_src and inp_title from the window, the editor is updated with the link.

In Firefox the editor is not updated nor is it updated when OK is clicked. The editor is only updated if something is updated on the link dialog.

Is there a work-around for this?

Thanks.
