We have uploaded attachments to SQL database and now wish to use RadEditor to display these attachments instead of opening a RadWindow to view the content. I have gone through the example "Custom File Dialog Content Provider" and have no clue how my requirement could be achieved.

Is it possible there have relevant examples for reference?

Regards

Hello Raymond,

In our Custom content provider example (http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/editor/examples/dbfilebrowsercontentprovider/defaultcs.aspx) we use a special HTTP handler (Handler.ashx) to stream the image data from the database. The handler takes a querystring parameter with the virtual path to the file, but if you have no hierarchy in your database (e.g. all files are in a single folder), then you can use a simple identifier. When you insert an image in the editor, its URL is simply referring to the handler address. For Example:

<img alt="" src="/aspnet-ajax/Editor/Examples/DBFileBrowserContentProvider/Handler.ashx?path=ROOT/Images/Nature/Fruits/7191.JPG" />

Hi Raymond,

This example comes with the RadControls installation - and for you to fully understand the example,  you need to look in the demo's folder on your local machine -
\Telerik.Web.Example\Editor\Examples\DBFileBrowserContentProvider

You need to look at the Handler.ashx file.
