SharePoint-Insert Image (use URL to image and not upload to image library)

[Erin]

I am using MOSS 2007 and have the RAD controls installed for SharePoint.  With RAD enabled on my lists, I want to use the same functionality as the SharePoint "Insert Image" option. This is a simple dialog that allow you to enter the URL to the image (see attached file).  I don't have this button anymore.  Is there a RAD tool that I can use with similar functionality?  I need to be able to insert images from our internet site into our intranet announcements. (No need to upload these bio pics on SharePoint if they are already on the internet site.)

Thanks!

Hi Erin,

Yes, you can consider using RadUpload. There is a special Images Uploader with RadAsyncUpload.

So, there is no current, built-in tool for the RAD Editor for SharePoint that I can use or the standard MOSS tool that I can include?  I am not a developer, so adding the tools you suggested is not feasible at this time.

Hi Erin,

In the latest version of RadEditor for MOSS (5.8.0) there is a lite InsertImage dialog. In order to enable it you need to modify the respective ToolsFile.xml or ListToolsFile.xml, which are located in the /Program Files/Common Files/Microsoft Shared/web server extensions/wpresources/RadEditorSharePoint/5.x.x.0__1f131a624888eeed/Resources/ folder. Add the following element:

<tool name="InsertImage" />

If you want to upgrade to the latest version of the control review the following online help article: Upgrading to a newer version of RadEditor for MOSS.

In addition you can review the following online demo http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/editor/examples/xhtmlvalidatortrackchangesformatcodeblockdialogs/defaultcs.aspx
