Author placeholder for a link
Olivier

2005-06-22, 8:48 pm

Hello,

I am looking for a solution to have a placeholder control where we can enter
one and only one url (hyperlink) of a channel (via a UI like the UI from the
HtmlPlaceHolder to enter a hyperlink)

in my mind, this placeholder looks like the
singleattachementplaceholdercontrol but is for an hyperlink of a channel.

how do that ?

Hi

You could implement a custom placeholder control. In authoring mode, have a
textbox and a button. The button opens up dialog that allows the author to
pick a channel. If you would like to re-use Web Author's hyperlink dialog,
this post on Stefan's blog offers some clues:
