Integration

Contents

Introduction

Before reading this section, please read the installation and configuration instructions and make sure that the examples located in the "_samples" directory are working correctly.

The "_samples" directory with examples contains two directories: "js" and "asp".

  • The "js" folder stores examples of launching CKFinder using the JavaScript code.
  • The "asp" folder stores examples of launching CKFinder using the ASP language.

The following files are used when either javascript or ASP method of launching CKFinder is used:

  • ckfinder.js in case of JavaScript integration method,
  • ckfinder_v1.js in case of JavaScript V1 integration method (useful when migrating from CKFinder 1.x),
  • ckfinder.asp in case of ASP integration method.

Example

To launch CKFinder, basically we need to do three things:

  • Create an instance of a CKFinder class.
  • Assign CKFinder properties.
  • Call the Create method.

The example of creating CKFinder using an ASP class:

<%
Dim oFinder
Set oFinder = New CKFinder
oFinder.BasePath = "/ckfinder"
oFinder.Width = "800"
oFinder.Create
%>

For a full working examples please refer to the "_samples" directory.

Integration methods

  • JavaScript integration - The preferred method of integration, simple, yet powerful.
  • JavaScript integration (V1) - The old "V1" way, useful when migrating from CKFinder 1.x because it is possible to reuse the old code.
  • ASP integration - If you haven't worked with JavaScript before or the JavaScript integration seems to be too complicated then it might be the way to go for you.
