Hi , I just added internal links to my forums FUDcode by adding [iurl] to the post_proc.inc.t (ok I just copied and pasted and added an 'i' & reverse stuff in html_to_tags but it felt good anyway)

this way I can link internally without the new window which I think is useful.

I did start by checking for the domain in the existing code and then optionally removing the target="_blank" based on that but then that takes away the choice..

anyway what I am trying to say is I find this useful perhaps others might & may be a candidate for an extra FUDcode feature ?

I was also thinking of alternate inage tags so we can align images in FUDcode ... just simple stuff like right and left align [imgl] [imgr] etc ? no point ? daft ? go back to sleep Simon ?

Considering FUDforum already has alignment tags, I see no reason to add [imgl] and [imgr], etc...

As for 'inline' link, it seems of somewhat dubious value since it would take the person away from the message they are reading.

yes but that does not wrap the text as <img src="FUD" align="left" /> or similar inline styles would do , which is what I meant (I should have been more specific)

dubious for sure Wink , but not a large overhead considering the way FUD uses FUD markup , just a thought .

I am using FUD as a CMS and want to give admin as much power as possible without letting them have access to HTML , which , like letting regular users near an RTE as I have found to my distress is often a mistake ~

I appreciate that it would probably be a little used feature (and FUD is primarily a forum I accept) but thought I would ask anyway , cos if you don't ask ..... Wink

That's an excellent point, which I had not considered. If this in fact allows text wrapping around an image I'll definitely considering the necessary tags.

Lot's of little overheads add up, while you brought an excellent point about images, I am not convinced inline links are really needed. It seems to me that in most cases it's better to use new windows since the original message window is retained. Since it looks to be a very limited use feature I am rather reluctant to add it.

..cool if you do go for it , perhaps add a bit of padding to the images ... or maybe that would be a css issue to be worried about elsewhere ? .. I used style="float:right;" & left here ..

I like the idea also of choosing to have an internal link, rather than spawning a new page. I have looked over the code, and it seems a bit beyond me to have both choices.

firepages, if you added [iurl] as an option, and retained the use of the original, can you please post the code here? Thanks.

It is a one line tweak inside post_proc.inc.t if you want to change the behaviour, just remove or change the value of the target attribute.

Thanks. I know how to make it all or none, but being able to have both behaviors using say [iurl] as a new tag is beyond me... Hate those regular expressions...

FUDforum does not use regex for implementing tags, only from converting html back to fudcode. Basically if you want to add [urli] simply duplicate the [url] code and adjust the target field accordingly.

Hi

why not add these options to the url and img tags directly ?

For example, let's say

[url thiswindow=true]here is the internal link[/url]
[img align=right]http://www.mysite.com/picwithtextflowingaround.jpg[/img]


This would help keeping the number of tags down... Now maybe this would cause incompatibilities with existing fudcode ?
