New page

SelectFunction is the name of a special javascript function that may be called when file is selected inside of CKFinder.
It can be used for example when CKFinder is working as a standalone file manager to insert a link to a file.

Suppose we have the following code to launch CKFinder:

<pre>

<script type="text/javascript" src="/ckfinder/ckfinder.js"></script>
...
<script type="text/javascript">
var finder = new CKFinder() ;
finder.BasePath = '/ckfinder/' ;
finder.SelectFunction = ShowFileInfo ;
finder.Create() ;
</script>
</pre>

In the code above, we have told CKFinder, that when file is selected by the user, the "ShowFileInfo" function should be called.
The ShowFileInfo is a name of our custom function, which accepts two arguments passed by CKFinder:
* fileUrl - the url to selected file,
* data - a javascript object with additional information:
** data["fileUrl"] - same as the first argument,
** data["fileSize"] - size of a file in kilobytes, if the size of a file is smaller than 512b, it is set to 1(KB),
** data["fileDate"] - returns the time the file was last modified (in the format: YYYYMMDDhhmm),
** data["selectFunctionData"] - the value which was assigned to the SelectFunctionData property.

==== Example 1 ====

<pre>
function ShowFileInfo( fileUrl, data )
{
alert( 'The selected file URL is "' + fileUrl + '"' ) ;

var formatDate = function( date ) {
return date.substr(0,4) + "-" + date.substr(4,2) + "-" + date.substr(6,2) + " " + date.substr(8,2) + ":" + date.substr(10,2) ;
}

alert( 'The selected file URL is: "' + data['fileUrl'] + '"' ) ;
alert( 'The size of selected file is: "' + data['fileSize'] + 'KB"' ) ;
alert( 'The selected file was last modifed on: "' + formatDate( data['fileDate'] ) + '"' ) ;
alert( 'The data passed to the function is: "' + data['selectFunctionData'] + '"' ) ;
}
</pre>
(see js/standalone.html example in the _samples folder for a full example).

=== SelectFunctionData ===

As explained above, SelectFunctionData is a special data (string) that can be passed to the SelectionFunction. Usually it would be the Id of a HTML field that should be updated when file is selected - this way we are able to update multiple fields using the same select function.

==== Example 2 ====

<pre>

<script type="text/javascript" src="/ckfinder/ckfinder.js"></script>
...
<script type="text/javascript">
function BrowseServer( inputId )
{
var finder = new CKFinder() ;
finder.BasePath = '/ckfinder/' ;
finder.SelectFunction = SetFileField ;
finder.SelectFunctionData = inputId ;
finder.Popup() ;
}

function SetFileField( fileUrl, data )
{
document.getElementById( data["selectFunctionData"] ).value = fileUrl ;
}
</script>
...
<p>
<strong>Selected File URL</strong><br/>
<input id="xFilePath" name="FilePath" type="text" size="60" />
<input type="button" value="Browse Server" onclick="BrowseServer( 'xFilePath' );" />
</p>
<p>
<strong>Selected Image URL</strong><br/>
<input id="xImagePath" name="ImagePath" type="text" size="60" />
<input type="button" value="Browse Server" onclick="BrowseServer( 'xImagePath' );" />
</p>
</pre>
(see js/popups.html example in the _samples folder for a full example).
