I stayed away from tinyMCE in the past as their file and image browsers didn't support CF. With the new release is there better support in that regard or any new plugins?

No, there still aren't any official file/image browser plugins for ColdFusion. There might be some unofficial ones, but I haven't checked. I ended up writing my own as we just needed a very simple way to upload images.

Looks great! What license have you released this under? We'd be interested in integrating this as part of the FarCry Core framework.

The FarCry formtools engine is a great example of CF integration with tinyMCE, including file library and image integration. Would be great to be able to add a spell checker as part of the standard distribution.

I'm basically "donating" the plugin to the TinyMCE community. So do whatever you'd like to with it.

I was kind of concerned about not having a file browser and image management in TinyMCE. However, I did find a link to someone that says they wrote a file manager specifically for TinyMCE. I'm checking it out. You can find it here.

Where can this be downloaded? Been searching through SourceForge but I can't see the package anywhere...

Thanks!

The download link is toward the bottom of the SourceForge page under the 'attached files' heading and right above the 'changes' section.

Just downloaded it from SourceForge and the ZIP file is asking me for a password, but I didn't see one anywhere. Help? Thanks.

Michael,

There is no password on the ZIP file. Try it again.

I just released version 3.0 of my CJ File Browser for ColdFusion. It’s free and I tried to make it so you can either modify or delve into the code to figure out how to make your own. Even though it was designed for ColdFusion, you could easily modify it to swap out the ColdFusion engine (It’s uses a ColdFusion Component (CFC) to handle the file management, but the front-end interface is using AJAX calls through JavaScript). Here’s a brief list of all the features:

* jQuery is handling all of the interface and controls.
* A ColdFusion component (CFC) is handling all of the file management. (You could easily port this to something else)
* An XML file is being used to handle security restrictions.
* CSS is used to handle the look & feel
* TinyMCE can be initiated with variables that are passed to CJ File Browser.
* You can now use it in Standalone mode (you’ll need to tweak the code a bit)

Hope you like. You can get it by visiting the project page here: http://www.cjboco.com/projects.cfm/project/cj-file-browser/

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but even after following directions to the "T", this doesn't work.
I just get an alert titled "Error Response" with the list of words that were being submitted to check for correct spelling...
Did I overlook something simple?

Have you tried using something like Firebug to monitor the Ajax requests and see if that gives you a clue what's going wrong?

What I've found is something is breaking when the code is trying to fire off the "getSuggestions" js function in "editor_plugin.js".
It looks like when getting the form.json_data from GetHttpRequestData, checkWords works fine, but it halts at that point.
Not seeing anything in Firebug as of yet.
(As a sidenote, this works fine when testing completely by itself; when using inside our corporate web app, it does this)

Welp, found the issue.
In our code we're appending something to every document that is served up.
I was able to tweak it.
Your plugin is a life saver! Thank you!
