Hello,

I want to develop my own WebParts to integrate them into MOSS 2007. So, I don't use the MOSS RadEditor. I want to specify ImagesPath to point to the personal images of each user, that is his personal site.
But apparently, that does not work.

Do you have a solution?
Is it possible to put : ~/personal/prenom_nom/Shared%20Pictures/ to the ImagesPath of radEditor ?

Thank you in advance,

Hello Poti,

The default RadEditor content provider works only with the file system. This means that you can only browse/upload files on the server's hard drive. MOSS 2007 does not use the file system to store data. Instead, all library files are stored in the server database and accessed only through the MOSS API. Therefore, you need a different editor content provider if you want to access files from the MOSS document libraries. Our RadEditor for MOSS product includes such a provider. You can use our MOSS editor base (MOSSRadEditor class, available from version 4.2)  instead of the normal RadEditor and you will be able to use the MOSS document libraries in the Image Manager. Unfortunately, the first version of the content provider could only work with files from the current site. We have updated the content provider for the next editor release so it can also access files from parent sites. However, it is still not possible to use files from the personal sites.

We tried to access personal files, but it seems that they are not available through the general API. This means that even if you switch to the MOSSRadEditor control, you will still not be able to access files from personal sites.


Best wishes,
