I've seen this. EWebEditPro uses the two lines
<webroot src="/images/"/>  
<xferdir src="/images/"/>

to resolve the image path.  I believe it uses the webroot first and if
that doesn't exist it uses the xferdir value. I still haven't figured
out how to tell it not to resolve, I guess eWebEditPro assumes all of
the images on all the web sites are in the same dir. But there is
another solution, assuming all of your images are in different dirs. If
they are in the same dir, just modify the config.xml.

In your insertImage() function in your imagePopup.cfm use the following
line to override the webroot value in the config.xml. 

objMedia.setProperty("WebRoot", "#newPath#" );

Craig,

I couldn't get FTP to work either so I had to kind of create an HTTP
solution.  Because we don't use Spectra's image objects  or  media
assets -
which the editor's http function is designed to work with - I had to
come
up with something on my own.  I re-worked the imagepopup.cfm file to us
CFFILE's upload capability to upload and insert images.  It kind of
works.
I'm still tweaking it.  Right now it uploads the file correctly but
enters
the wrong directory in the HTML.  Users have to manually edit the HTML
to
point to the right directory and once the do that, everything is fine.

I am having a bear of a time dealing with the Ektron editor.  It feels
to
me
like the problem is one that people should have encountered and solved
before now.

I am trying to configure the tool to allow image uploads.  At this point
I
do not care if I do it with FTP or with http.  My instinct says that
HTTP
would be better since I would have better control over the interface but
I
am pretty confused as to how you manage that interface.  So far FTP just
doesn;t work for me.

So:  has anyone sucessfully enabled image upload with the Ektron editor
that
ships with 1.5.1?  If so did you use FTP or HTTP?  where in the
documentation did you find the configuration procedures? (I'm pefectly
willing to RTFM -- the question is which FM!)

Also I read somewhere that we were entitled to a upgrade from Extron 2.0
to
the "next dot release".  My understanding from the Ektron site is that
2.1
is out.  Does anyone know how/if that upgrade works?  Can we download it
somewhere?  Is there someone to contact?

Thanks in adnvance,

Craig Fisher
