File management and JForum

[Migrated From Jforum.net]

Hello all,

I have made a web apps that contains a file management. This is a section of the site where the users can put there files. The files ar filed in different folders in a tree structure that is dynamically build from the database.

Now in the folders are files. I have implemented this forum to discuss stuff on the website. But when the users talk about a file it is confenient that I can make a link from the forum to the map where the file is located.

First of all is my question. How could I do that, how can I make a link to the map. And my web apps is made with java and JSP. But in the pages from JForum I can't use Java or JSP tags. How can I implement Java or JSP in the pages of JForum.

Thanks all,

Henk

Hmm.. currently, if you want such integration, I don't see any other option but to hack into jforum's source code :roll:

Would it be possible, maybe, to extend the BB code that JForum supports to add some special kind of links like the ones he wants to build?

Meaning... you could write [filemap=/xxx/yyy]the file[/filemap] and then in the message it would be transformed into an http link to the application blah blah blah.

I don't know if extending BB code's functionality is easy or not, but I thought it might be a clean way of doing it without messing too deeply into the source code .

WEB-INF/config/bb_config.xml. It's just a couple of regular expressions.

Where should I put the extensions of the BB code. And how does this work?

THnx,
