I am attempting to include alt tags and possibly long desc tags into the image insertion option. I went to inc_code.asp and tried to change the javascript, this is what I changed it to:
function image() {
if (helpstat){
alert("Image Tag Inserts an image into the post.\n\nUSE:  ");
} else if (basic) {
AddTxt=" ";
AddText(AddTxt);
} else {
txt2=prompt("URL for graphic","http://");
if (txt2!=null) {
txt=prompt("Alt Tag for the Image","");
if (txt!=null) {
if (txt2=="") {
AddTxt="[img alt=\""+txt+"\"]"+txt2+"";
AddText(AddTxt);
}
}
}
}
} |

Hmm strange, my entire post is not showing up. Here is the rest of it:
I then realized that I needed to go into inc_functions and create some sort of forum code to allow [img alt=] to actually function right. But I am at a loss as what to do in inc_functions. I found this spot:
if strIMGInPosts = "1" then
fString = replace(fString, "<img src="""," ", 1, -1, 1)
fString = replace(fString, """ id=right border=0>","[/img=right]", 1, -1, 1)
fString = replace(fString, """ id=left border=0>","[/img=left]", 1, -1, 1)
end if
and I thought maybe it is something in here, but everything I try doesn't work. Any suggestions? |

| just a small guess (since I've never taken the time to look at inc_code.asp), but I think the reason it doesn't work is because you're using ASP in a JavaScript function... |

For some reason the boards messed up the code I entered in ( I even used the "code" tags). Anyways, here is the javascript without the ASP mysteriously being jumbled into it. The red code is the stuff I actually changed, hopefully this will make more sense.
function image() {
if (helpstat){
alert("Image Tag Inserts an image into the post.\n\nUSE: [ img ]http://www.anywhere.com/image.gif[/img]");
} else if (basic) {
AddTxt="[ img ]"+text+"[ /img ]";
AddText(AddTxt);
} else {
txt2=prompt("URL for graphic","http://");
if (txt2!=null) {
txt=prompt("Alt Tag for the Image","");
if (txt!=null) {
if (txt2=="") {
AddTxt="[ img alt=\""+txt+"\" ]"+txt2+"[ /img ]";
AddText(AddTxt);
}
}
}
}
}

hi~ ewyglend,
i think the [ code ] tags should be ok,
if the code you want to show us including forum code,
you can insert a space [ img] or use another symbol {img}...
to prevent it mess up you source code.  |

| Thanks, that did help me sort out the forum code issue, so at least my code is displaying correctly. I have been playing around with the code more myself but I still can't get an image inserted through forum code to have an alt tag. |

hi~ ewyglend,
it's great idea for img tag! but i think not so easy to do this...
if you take a look to Function ReplaceImageTags in inc_func_common.asp
you'll know the [ img ] tag is a little bit different with other forum code.
i'm not sure is it something security problem if we just do this as a
general forum code replace function...
but... for a worthy trying, why not ? 
i think you can refer to the "Flash Code" addon... (try search...)
it's almost the same doing for adding a new forum code by yourself.
i also add some special forum code for my personal usage before.
by my experience: try make your custom forum code as special as possible!
(at least, add a special id value for it...)
otherwise it'll mess up with the other code when edit/quote....
for example:
in chkString function (inc_func_common)
fString = doCode(fString, "[altimg=#","#]","<img alt=""",""" border=""0"" src=""")
fString = replace(fString,"[/altimg]",""" id=""altimg"">", 1, -1, 1)
and in CleanCode function (inc_func_posting)
fString = replace(fString, "<img alt=""","[altimg=#", 1, -1, 1)
fString = replace(fString, """ border=""0"" src=""","#]", 1, -1, 1)
fString = replace(fString, """ id=""altimg"">","[/altimg]", 1, -1, 1)
and the inc_code.js just as what you doing, it's fine.
in basically, i think this can transfer...
[altimg=#xxxxx#]http..imglink[/altimg]
to
<img alt="xxxxx" border="0" src="http...imglink" id="altimg">
not sure it'll work no problem... but worth trying it.
<-- just test it, it seem work !   ----> |

| I think I am catching on to what you are saying, although i don't have the files inc_func_common or inc_func_posting, I only have inc_functions, so I don't know where to look for all of this. |

sorry, have'nt noticed this..  in your case it should be inc_functions.asp
but i think it's the same doing, no matter v3.4 or v3.3
here is another example.. in inc_functions.asp
find this function CleanCode(fString)
then in this function below this line add 4 lines
if strIMGInPosts = "1" then
'##### Img Alt tag addon - 3 lines added
fString = replace(fString, "<img alt=""","[img alt=""", 1, -1, 1)
fString = replace(fString, """ border=""0"" src=""","""]", 1, -1, 1)
fString = replace(fString, """ id=""altimg"">","[/img=alt]", 1, -1, 1)
then the same in inc_functions.asp, find function chkString(pString,fField_Type)
then in this function below this line add 3 lines
if strAllowForumCode = "1" and fField_Type <> "signature" then
'##### Img Alt tag addon - 2 lines added
fString = doCode(fString, "[img alt=""","""]","<img alt=""",""" border=""0"" src=""")
fString = replace(fString,"[/img=alt]",""" id=""altimg"">", 1, -1, 1)
then go to make a new topic/post and try typing forum code in your post like this..
[img alt="This is Alternative Text for Img tag."]http://forum.snitz.com/forum/logo_snitz_forums_2000.gif[img=alt]
and see if can work.....
except the ReplaceImageTags issue i mentioned in previous post
(it maybe related to security problem..), i also think about another
problem for this stuff... if user input some "" or ">...etc,
it maybe will mess up your web page. and i have no idea how to prevent this.... |

thank you! That worked perfectly. Now all I have to do is figure out how to make prompt mode and help mode bring up the alt tag option too, but that should not be nearly as difficult. Thanks again.

I have run into a problem somewhere along the way where when I type in
{img alt="this is the alt tag"}http://www.site.com/urlofimage.jpg{/img alt}
the image wont display, and when I right click on it to see the url, it is looking for "http://www.site.com/urlofimage.jpg{/img alt]...." It is not cutting off the url at the end of .jpg like it should. Anyone have any ideas? |

hi~ ewyglend,
usually this problem just cause from the Forum Code <===> HTML Code did'nt match...
as i mentioned above, all these just "string replace" work.
though we really must very carefully when writing these custom forum code.
in above example, there are three parts in this set of forum code..
[img alt=" <===> <img alt="
"] <===> " border="0" src="
[/img=alt] <===> " id="altimg">
so suppose we typing [img alt="xxxxx"]yyyyy[/img=alt], then we'd like to "transfer" it to <img alt="xxxxx" border="0" src="yyyyy" id="altimg">
and as i remind that.. for these custom forum code.. as special as better!! it's for preventing conflict with the other forum codes.
anyway, try checking those corresponding code again... it should be not so hard to find out where the wrong code. |
