[Server-devel] tiny_mce Sugar theme

[Tarun Pondicherry]

Hi Martin,

Most of it is self contained in 
lib/editor/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/themes/sugar/.

Moodle needs to be hacked a bit to get the image upload to work with it 
(avoid the Moodle file dialog).  Basically, there needs to be an 
additional file upload script that just uploads the image and then 
echo's the url to that file, which the theme will pick up.  The one 
EduBlog is currently using is:

    
http://dev.laptop.org/git?p=projects/EduBlog;a=history;f=moodle/lib/editor/tinymce/uploadimage.php 


The " theme_sugar_imageupload" parameter needs to be set when 
initializing tinyMCE so that it knows where to find the upload script, 
so in the tinyMCE config, this additional line is needed (the script 
location may need to be modified):

    theme_sugar_imageupload : "../uploadimage.php",

On my todo list is to push fileupload out of the theme and into a 
tinyMCE plugin to make the implementation cleaner.

Write upload would need a bunch of things specific to the EduBlog 
server, and is unnecessary for the new builds.

Thanks,
Tarun
