Edit file in frontend with itempublisher

Hey,

I made a comment in another post her: http://developer.dynamicweb.com/forum/development/how-to-upload-file-with-itemcreator.aspx?DWPagingPageNum=2

But since that post is already marked as answered I guess it would be more correct to create a new post - so here we go:)

When using the ItemCreator I can allow a user to upload an image or select one already uploaded in the same folder. I got this working fine!

However - using the ItemPublisher I want to allow the users to edit the already created items, and I have a problem getting that working with the file upload.

Few notes from my former post:

Used the above for the ItemCreator without any problem - but how would I go about making the same functionality in the ItemPublisher edit instead?

@GetValue("ItemPublisher:Edit.Form") Gives me all the text fields which changes fine on a "Save Changes" and it also list the image chosen in a dropdown - however nothing changes if you change it "Nothing selected".

If I then instead use the ItemPublisher:Edit:Form.Begin and ItemPublisher:Edit:Form.End it seems I only have a loop for the images in the dropdownlist and not a list of all fields as I would expect?

In your item publisher edit template, you can use basically the same syntax as in the item creator template for creating a file upload, e.g.

@GetValue("ItemPublisher:Edit.Form.Begin")
<input type='file' name='FieldSystemName' accept='@GetValue("ItemCreator:Edit.Item.FieldSystemName.Extensions")'/>

@GetValue("ItemPublisher:Edit.Form")
<button type='submit'>Create</button>

@GetValue("ItemPublisher:Edit.Form.End")

As you correctly point out, template tags for all fields in the form are missing, but we're working on fixing that (Bug 15417).

Best regards,
Mikkel
