Documentation
Using the file browser plug-in is simple, and through the jQuery selector is used to decide where the browser will be rendered. Like this:
<div id="my-filebrowser"></div>
...
<script type="text/javascript">
$('#my-filebrowser').filebrowser({dir : '/absolute/path/to/files/'});
</script>
There are two parameters that can be passed to the plug-in:
-
settings, with the following properties and defaults:'handler' : 'php/jquery.filebrowser.php'- the backend browse-handler'dir' : '/tmp'- absolute path to the directory to browse
-
fn, optional custom javascript callback function, called on click. Is an empty function by default.
Below is an iframed example of the default look of the file browser.
