Hi HuwR,
Question for you about this MOD. I have it working on V3.3.03 (very easy to install). I have edit UploadEngine.asp so depending on the file extension, it will add an Icon to click on to d-load the file that matches the file extension (as you can see in the pic below)
I did this by adding more code to UploadEngine.asp like the code below<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function addDoc()
{
var fname, resultString
resultString ='<%= boolSuccess %>';
fname = '<%= faname %>';
if (resultString)
window.opener.document.PostTopic.Message.value+= '[ url="pop_download.asp?mode=Edit&dir=' + '<%=strFolder%>' + '&file=' + fname + '"][img ]icon_word.gif[ /img][/url ]';
window.close();
}
//-->
</script> and other code in the necessary places, my question is can this be done an easier way, so I don't have to add all this code for every file extension I want a different button for. I thought I could do it in the first function addfile(), by using if's related to the file extension but could not get it.
No rush on answering as I do have it working the way I want it to, just curious if there was an easier way to accomplish this.

Sure Crash,
I am just leaving for work right now, so I'll gather the files together (and make a few more images at work  ) and send them to you.
I will send you the UploadEngine.asp file with the changes I have made and all the images.

you could simply change the addfile() function so it accepted a parameter which is the image to display like this
function addfile(myImage)
{
var fname, resultString
resultString ='<%= boolSuccess %>';
fname = '<%= faname %>';
if (resultString)
window.opener.document.PostTopic.Message.value+= '[ url="pop_download.asp?mode=Edit&dir=' + '<%=strSubFolder%>' + '&file=' + fname + '"][ img]images\/'+ myImage + '[ /img][ /url]';
window.close();
}
then where the asp code checks the extension, assign the image to a variable which you can then pass in the call to add file like so
<a href="JavaScript:onClick= addfile(<%= myImageVar %>)">Close Window</A>

Hey Crash,
It may be a few days before I can email you the files. My internet at home is down and they said it may not be up until the weekend. Me is not a happy camper because my I run my forum from my server at home, as you can see the link to the image I posted here is not working.
I am at work right now and we are very limited to what we can do behind the firewall, so it has to wait until I get going at home.
Surprised I can get to Snitz behind the Firewall

Ok, here it is
You can download file extensions MOD here for File Attachment MOD
I know I don't have to tell you this, but incase others use this, read the readme file first and like always, backup your UploadEngine.asp and pop_upload.asp files first.
Also, this is important !! By default I have these files in my Forum directory. You may have a link to attach a file in forum/Mods so you should change the link to forum.
What this does is very simple, in the readme are a list of file extensions I have allowed. Users like pretty pictures, so I changed the UploadEngine.asp so depending on what file extension is uploaded, it will attach an appropriate image to match that file extension. The images are ........
A Floppy Disk, Access, Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Outlook, Zip File, PDF, Notepad, I.E. and Imageing
I know diddly squat about coding and I am sure someone else could have done better so let me know how it works
