I know this is an older thread but I also experienced this error for first time. Only occurred in Firefox (5.0). Disabling the flash uploader fixed issue.

Wonder if there's a permanent fix in works for Firefox & flash uploader.

Strange. I typed in a long reply (using the "Quote" button) and it posted your quote with my response missing! [crazy]

Anyway, what I said was that I changed the code to match to the correct file type, but if you look at the following page:

http://www.mtrip.org/v2/cmstest.php

You'll see it only shows "View Page" (for "non file upload" articles). It's supposed to say "View PDF" if the filetype is a PDF, or "View Page" if there's no file uploaded and just a standard article page.

If you click on the "View Page" link however, it loads the article detail page and displays the file at the very bottom (IF the file exist). Not exactly how I wanted it to work though.

It may have something to do with how I have everything setup on the back side. I don't know. You may need to look at how I have things setup internally to see what's wrong here.

Thank you for your help...

Hi Eriq,

Try something like this:

View Image View PDF View All other files

Let me know if that works for you or if you run into any problems.

I use CMS Builder for TEQMedia.com. TEQ Media is a web design/development co. providing custom web design, e-newsletter design & flash media. Currently we're only using it for our web design portfolio (located at http://www.teqmedia.com/portfolio/web), but I will soon have it power our entire website. I am also integrating CMS Builder into two of our client websites as we speak for document libary management & reporting tools. I'll post on these sites very soon once they're launched.

Thank you for the quick reply. Yes that's exactly what I want to do. Not sure how to code exactly

Single link, filetype or article

Mon, 12 Jan 2009 03:12:46 -0800

Sorry to repost this people but I am rephrasing my question in an attempt to make it more clear as to what I need.

[font "Verdana"]I would like to show a single link, called "View", which displays an article by clicking on the link (and opens the article in a web page) if the record is an article, OR displays a file (PDF, Word doc, etc) if the file is an upload type.

[font "Verdana"]I've been playing around with the code all weekend and just can't figure it out. If you take a look at the following link:

[url "http://www.interactivetools.com/forum/forum.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mtrip.org%2Fv2%2Fcmstest.php"][font "Verdana"]http://www.mtrip.org/v2/cmstest.php[/#333366][/url][font "Verdana"]

[font "Verdana"]Notice the two links at the bottom of each record: "View/Download Page" and "View/Download File"? A typical [font "Verdana"]record will only be one or the other (article or file upload). Not both. This is the problem: I only want to display ONE link, and depending on the type of record it is (file upload or standard article), load the appropriate viewer (for web page) or just open the file (PDF, Word doc, etc). I don't want to display both links. I just want to system to do the corresponding action based on the type of file it is.

[font "Verdana"]Is this possible? I think it involves some IF/ELSE coding, but I'm clueless on how to do that.

[font "Verdana"]Here's the code I'm currently using:

View Web Page (if applicable)

View/Download

[font "Verdana"]How do I code the page in order to do that? hope I explained it easier.

[font "Verdana"]Thank you...

How to make single link change automatically based on filetype

Fri, 09 Jan 2009 19:10:17 -0800

Hi everyone, Donna mentioned to ask this question in the web forum so I'm posting it here. Need some quick help on what I think is a simple issue to tackle.

Please take a look at the folowing web page:

http://www.mtrip.org/v2/cmstest.php

In the 4th row of each entry (titled "File"), I want to be able to have a single link that changes automatically based on the type of file it is. In other words, if the entry is a basic article, I want the link to read "View Page", or if it's a file download (PDF, DOC, XLS, etc), the link would read "View/Download File" (instead of showing both "[url "http://www.interactivetools.com/forum/forum.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.interactivetools.com%2Fforum%2Fforum.cgi%3Furl%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.mtrip.org%252Fv2%252Farticles%252FarticleDetail.php%253FLogo-Creative-Brief-2"]View Web Page[/#0066cc][/url]" AND "[url "http://www.interactivetools.com/forum/forum.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.interactivetools.com%2Fforum%2Fforum.cgi%3Furl%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.mtrip.org%252Fv2%252FcmsAdmin%252Fuploads%252FLogoCreativeBrief.pdf"]View/Download[/#0066cc][/url]" at the same time). I don't like having to show both text links if only one works. Does that make sense?

I think what I want to do is something with an "IF" or "ELSE" statement, but I'm not sure how to code it. Can anyone here provide some example code to acheive the results I need? Here's the code I that's in place now:

View Web Page

" width="" height="" alt="" />

View/Download

I really don't care about the the thumbnail references (since I'm not showing thumbnails) but tried removing them and screwed up everything. And I'm not sure how to code if/else statements to generate the results I want. I need help. Need to launch this site by Sunday (tomorrow).

Greatly appreciated.
