Description

I've been checking out the Filefield Insert module that, along with Image Resize Filter, allows you to upload an image, then 'send image to text area'. Then the Image Resize Filter allows you to resize the image on the fly. I actually see this method, in the long run, being much easier for my clients then IMCE.

The function works great but it would be ideal to upload a highslide image to send to the text field. And if it was resize-able too, even better.

They are discussing a similar idea with the filefield insert module to make it so the inline image can link to the original, or to a lightbox or thickbox image, etc... http://drupal.org/node/479310 I'm guessing that highslide could eventually be part of this?

Meanwhile, is there a another way to insert a highslide image inline? It looks like maybe with the Inline Module this could be possilbe. http://drupal.org/project/inline

This won't really be possible until this filefield_insert feature request is committed: #479310: Add support for add'l CCK Formatters (Lightbox2, etc.)

Title:Inline Highslide -- Filefield Insert Module and Highslide? » Inline Highslide -- Add neccessary hooks to work with Insert module

The new Insert (formerly known as filefield-insert) module assists the creation of URLs to uploaded images so they can be placed inline. It's a really great way to work with imagefield and other file-fields (in my opinion).

This originally started as a feature request on that issue queue to support the CCK URL formatters.

http://drupal.org/node/479310

Quicksketch has now added support in Insert for CCK URL formatters, but it is up to each individual module to work with the hooks available in Insert. This includes Highslide. #60.

Now, Highslide must include the necessary hooks to work with insert.

http://drupal.org/node/479310

Changed title for clarity

Great, thanks! I'm just playing around but it looks like it works already. This mean we can now put highslide directly into the body without it being a separate image field from the body.

edit:
It seems I spoke too soon. Like a previous issue the image place holder is still there even if the image is removed. Plus though the image attributes aren't working, so I think the image field is showing on it's own and not within the body.

edit:
Spoke too soon yet again! It seems it is able to send the image over but it's no longer a highslide image. I suppose that's where the module needs the 'hooks'.
