Albe Terra	Wednesday 03 September 2008 1:27:57 am Hi! Is there a custom datatype for images? The standard image datatype has two attributes: the file and the alternative text. I need also to have a caption. Is there something already done? Or is there the possibility to modifiy the image datatype? Thanks, Albe :)
Pascal Specht	Wednesday 03 September 2008 4:34:00 am Hi Albe, the easiest would probably be to add attributes to the existing Image class. Easy to do when using the administration interface, just browse to /ezwebin_site_admin/class/classlist/3 or use Administration->Classes and select the Image clas, which is in Media. Hope this helps, </Pascal>

Hi Albe,

the easiest would probably be to add attributes to the existing Image class. Easy to do when using the administration interface, just browse to /ezwebin_site_admin/class/classlist/3 or use Administration->Classes and select the Image clas, which is in Media.

Hope this helps,
