A question about image uploading & shared servers

Does iRite allow you to embed an image from your local machine or does it only allow URL references to images?

Many of my clients, who use a shared hosting platform, have requested the facility to be able to upload images / pdfs etc however most shared hosting platforms have restrictions on the amount of time they'll allow a script to execute.

If a client, on a shared server, attempts to upload a file any bigger than, for example, 1MB, it's likely that it will time out / fail.

Will HTML Editor have the facility to upload local files and, if so, what provision, if any, is made for those on shared servers?

Oh, and also, will the new HTML Editor work on a Windows server? ;)

Yes. HTML editor will allow for local image upload and it works on Windows server.

In regard to any provision, that should be decided before using the HTML editor and allowing for image upload. However, the HTML editor works side by side with Security Assist and you can set who is able to use the image upload based on a rule that you specify in Security Assist (for example, you would only want users who logged in to be able to upload.).

The time it takes to upload an image depends on the server and the restrictions more than the HTML editor.
