For security reason, most of you turned of the image manager avaible on xoops.

This hack :is a simple alternative that you ll probably find helpful.
The service is provided by Dayza Image hosting and is totaly free.

to add their upload window to your XOOPS form follow thoses steps :

1- Open the file : XOOPS_ROOT_PATH/include/xoopscodes.php
2- find on line 40 :
<img src='".XOOPS_URL."/images/image.gif' alt='image' onmouseover='style.cursor="hand"' onclick='openWithSelfMain("".XOOPS_URL."/imagemanager.php?target=".$textarea_id."","imgmanager",400,430);' />

3- replace it with :
<img src='".XOOPS_URL."/images/image.gif' alt='image' onmouseover='style.cursor="hand"' onclick='openWithSelfMain("http://www.dayza.com/upload/index.php","imgmanager",400,430);' />


I m actualy using it on Casafree forums.
feel free to test it.
Hope it will help somes of you.

Salam Mowaffak,
For the little i know, There is no particular risk about using the XOOPS image uploader. i had some probleme with it in the past, but since that time XOOPS is much more secure.
I m more talking about security concerning the control of the content uploaded by users and especialy bandwidth saving.
Excuse my broken english :)
