Hi Giancarlo
Yes I think that's what I am looking for. Thanks for the hint. I'll go in this 
direction.

Many thanks for your input

Claudio

Betreff: Re: [magnolia-user] AW: [magnolia-user] Creating a CMS dialog to 
Upload a file to the DMS

Hi Claudio

Sorry, I think I misunderstood you. I thought you were talking about
users in e.g. public instance using a multi-part form to upload
documents to the DMS.

Well, basically the idea is to "directly" upload a document into the
DMS, similar like managing pages in the "Website" pane you manage
documents in the "DMS" pane. There is even the possibility to upload a
zip file containing multiple documents, which will all be extracted
into the DMS.

But if I understood you correctly, you would like to have a dialog
with a control to upload a file to the DMS. AFAIK no such control
exists. Your best catch would be to take a closer look at the "file"
control (class info.magnolia.cms.gui.dialog.DialogFile), because that
does precisely that, however to the web page. So maybe you might want
to create a new control, based on the "DialogFile" one and replace the
"website" repository with the "dms" repository and a content node you
want to store the document.

Is that what you are looking for?

Cheers
