JavaScript integration

Integration using javascript code is a bit more powerful. The javascript integration file provides also a Popup method, which can be used to open CKFinder in a popup window. Please refer to the popup.html and popups.html samples in the "_samples/js/" directory for a working example.

The JavaScript integration method provides also two static methods to launch CKFinder, which can accept either four arguments or the settings object as the only argument.

  • CKFinder.Create( basePath, width, height, selectFunction ) - Simple static method supporting only basic four arguments. All arguments except basePath are optional.
  • CKFinder.Create( settingsObject ) - Pass an object with selected properties as the only argument.
  • CKFinder.Popup( basePath, width, height, selectFunction ) - Simple static method supporting only basic four arguments. All arguments except basePath are optional.
  • CKFinder.Popup( settingsObject ) - Pass an object with selected properties as the only argument.

The example of creating CKFinder using a static javascript method:

<script type="text/javascript">
CKFinder.Create( '/ckfinder/', 700 ) ;
</script>

More flexible method of launching CKFinder, the object with selected settings is passed as the only argument:

<script type="text/javascript">
CKFinder.Create( { BasePath : '/ckfinder/', RememberLastFolder : false } ) ;
</script>
