Hi,

I'm using the urlcontrol for selecting and upload images, but I can't find anywhere how to preset this control. I need to set it so the settings will be the same when u return to the page later.

Thanks in advance for your reply,

Willem

you can set it declaritively ShowFiles="true" ShowTrack="false" ShowLog="false" /> or else programatially by accessing it via it's id (MyUrlControl in the example above) and changing it's setings (e.g. storing/retrieving settings in a store such as portalsettings)

I've not been clear with my question, I wanted to know how to set the value of the UrlControl when a user selected a file priviously.

I found the answer myself, I was confused by the linkclick.aspx.

This is what I did and it works:

<dnn:UrlControl id="DefaultImageUrlControl" runat="server" ShowFiles="True"
        ShowLog="false" ShowTrack="false" ShowUpLoad="true" ShowNewWindow="false"
        UrlType="U" FileFilter="jpg,bmp,gif,jpeg,png" ShowDatabase="False" ShowImages="False" ShowNone="False"
        ShowSecure="False" ShowTabs="False" ShowUrls="False" ShowUsers="False"></dnn:UrlControl>

Save the value DefaultImageUrlControl.Url in the database. This is something like "FileId=xx".

When the user returns to change de previous set value of the UrlControl use this:DefaultImageUrlControl.Url = The value save in de database: FileId=xx (pretty straightforward).

To get the file when you e.g. want to show it when it is an image use:Globals.LinkClick(FileId=xx, TabId, ModuleId)

The last one returns a string like this: LinkClick.aspx?xxxxxxx; where the x's stand for some unique id to get the file through linkclick.aspx.
