Seems to me you need to use a regex to strip out all the image tags and replace them with markers (I would use "#SUB#1", "#SUB#2", "#SUB#3" etc where SUB = Chr(26). After the second form replace the markers with the actual code.
You need to search for something like this: "<img[^>]*>" -----Original Message----- From: Scott Van Vliet [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, 19 April 2002 2:43 p.m. To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Finding Images in HTML and Uploading ActivEdit is too much for this particular client. The client is basically going to be receiving a ZIP file containing an HTML file and images. His job will just be to copy the HTML out of the file and paste it into the field, and then supply the required images (which will be named as those in the ZIP file). Any other ideas? Thanks for the tip, though - ActivEdit is a great tool, and I have used it before. ^_^ ---- SCOTT VAN VLIET BRD.WRKS INTERACTIVE T: 714.469.6805 E: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Matthew Walker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 18, 2002 3:56 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Finding Images in HTML and Uploading Why don't you use something like Activedit which has image uploading built in? -----Original Message----- From: VAN VLIET, SCOTT E (SBCSI) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, 19 April 2002 10:50 a.m. To: CF-Talk Subject: Finding Images in HTML and Uploading Before I go any farther than I already have, I thought I should ask you folks if you have already seen this functionality, or know of a custom tag or UDF to do this: I have a client who wants to be able to post HTML to a content management site, and have the ability to upload the images he references in the code. This is essentially a nightmare, however I can up with an idea for the solution. Basically, when he saves the HTML, I want to search through the text that he has typed and find any <img> tags. Then, once I have the references to those images found in the text, I will bring the user to another form page, which will loop over the list of these found <img> tags and write a dynamically named <input type="image"> field for the corresponding image. Once the user selects and image for each found in the HTML text, I will then need to upload those images and change the <img> tags in the HTML text to reflect the names and location of the images uploaded, and return the modified HTML text to be saved to the database. WHEH! That sounds like so much fun! But, if any of you out there have any better ideas, please let me know. Thanks!
