Hi Chris

The use of TinyMCE in Kiwee is not reliable.
After looking around trying to asceratin what is happening under the image section I have found that there is a function in product_maintenance.dynamic.php (under manager/actions)

function fileBrowserCallBack(field_name, url, type, win)

which talks about the code required for filebrowser logic then has the line that generates that "someurl.htm".

From memory I think I did look at FCKeditor (which is the image/resource handler that is used to handle images/videos, etc from TinyMCE) when looking at all the template variable render types and found that FCKeditor was not to my liking (was prone to breaking).
I would be interested if people found this plugin good/stable or prefer/use a different file/resource browser instead (otherwise i'll at some stage look iinto the options for both the editor and resource browser).

Richard,
Thank you for your quick response, I turned off the TinyMCE and used
manual code for adding products and it was ok.
So, the answer for my above question is : the add picture fucntion of
TinyMCE in the add product stage does not work!

Hi richard

I'm glad to see you are giving your best affords to make this product
more flexibility and completely. I'm building a classified site so I
need to check and apply more functions of Kiwee into my code. I would
pay more attentions on the image/resource handler when comfortable,
but go ahead my friend, I'll be very happy to here you say you FIXED
this issue.
