RE: Photo galleries and the Upload API

Uh, yeah...that's not going to work...those are two
reference functions from
which a developer could build a photo gallery render
handler. The two
functions alone do not actually output anything.

I'm using the photo gallery example you sent which is why I
replied directly
from that original email (see bottom). I'm not a programmer
so I just copied
it straight from the email. I pasted it into a blank page in
dreamweaver,
saved it as a .cfm in renderhandlers on the dev site. I went
into the
Commonspot admin, added the render handler in manage
elements. I created a
new page in the cms, inserted a textblock, inserted some
images in the
textblock and tried to add the custom render handler in
element properties.
Then the element seems to disappear.

Megan - you'll need to post your code.

Not sure what I'm doing wrong, I'm assuming I'm missing the
obvious or I
messed up the code. But I created the renderhandler and
added it to the
formatted textblock but the element just seems to vanish
once I go to
element properties and select the renderhandler for the
textblock...any
advice?

Thanks,

Megan

We came up with an interesting solution...

Post images into a standard formatted text block, Then write
a render
handler that extracts the <IMG SRC> url's, and output
the images any way
that you want.

I'll try and post an example later today...

Hi, Harold-

That sounds like a great solution. Care to send a URL
showing it off?
