I'm being thick-headed tonight and still haven't quite got it, but I think I have enough to make some progress in the morning (getting late here). I'll try to explain what I'm wanting to do a little better (as much for my benefit as anything else): I have a page with a dynamic content container set to use a News Rule type. I plan on having custom display methods in dmNews to display the teaser and the body of the news item. In the "News Administration" section under the "Content" tab in FarCry admin there is a utility for uploading images and for inserting them into the teaser and the body. (This site is running on 2.11--it's a little different in 3.0 but not a lot. I think I have the version numbers right.) All of that works fine, but neither of the sample skins (Aura and Pliant ?) have display methods that use the images, so I don't know the code to put in the display method so that the images will be called. In the listserv archives I found code for the teaser image, so that part now works fine[1], but I can't figure out the body image. The body image doesn't seem to be part of stObj so I can't just twiddle the code I have. Anyway, there are probably other ways to insert images into the news item body page, but I'd like the client to be able to use the FarCry workflow to make their lives easier. So I'd like them to be able to upload an image and click a button to insert it into the page and be done with it. And that's where I'm stuck. I feel better just clarifying the problem--thank y'all for listening. I'll still take all the help I can get. [1] Here's the code for the teaser display method: <cfsetting enablecfoutputonly="yes"> <cfoutput> <h4 style="clear:both;"><a href="#application.url.conjurer#?objectid=#stObj.objectid#">#stObj.Title#</a></h4> <p> <cfif len(trim(stObj.TEASERIMAGE))><!---see if teaser image exists---> <cfimport taglib="/farcry/fourq/tags/" prefix="q4"> <q4:contentobjectget objectid="#stObj.TEASERIMAGE#" r_stobject="stImages"> <img src="/images/#stImages.IMAGEFILE#" align="right" alt="#stObj.label#" style="float:left;margin:0 5px 5px 0"> </cfif> #stObj.teaser#</p> </cfoutput> <cfsetting enablecfoutputonly="no"> -- Steve Clason Web Design & Development Boulder, Colorado, USA www.topdogstrategy.com (303)818-8590 --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "farcry-dev" group.
