How to control HTML produced by <embed>?

Next topic

Author	Message
Ciprian Popovici	Wednesday 01 March 2006 8:16:35 am I've tried using <embed> to add some pictures to my pages. I'm hoping there is a simple way I can control the outcome. Ideally, I'd like my content editors to be able to add a small hint to the <embed> tag, such as left, right or center, and the resulting image and the surrounding HTML should be under my control. I suspect it has to do with the Image class and perhaps one of those many templates but I'm really lost. I checked the HTML that's generated now and it's a mess. There are no less than 4 different DIV's surrounding the image tag, I can't seem able to add a class name of my choice (only ID, but I may have several images in a page), and to top it all of there's a <br /> in there which seriously messes up the layout. Basically, I'd like the editor to write one of these: <embed href="..." something="left"> <embed href="..." something="right"> <embed href="..." something="center"> and to get one of these, respectively: <div class="left"><img ....></div> <div class="center"><img ....></div> <div class="right"><img ....></div> Can this be done and how?

You can change base template, or use this override rule and make override for your design: [image_embed] Source=content/view/embed.tpl MatchFile=embed/image.tpl Subdir=templates Match[class_identifier]=image Personal website -> http://serwatka.net Blog (about eZ Publish) -> http://serwatka.net/blog

Hi Ciprian,

Output from embed objects is controlled by template in design/base/override/templates/embed/image.tpl for "base" design. You can change base template, or use this override rule and make override for your design:

[image_embed]
Source=content/view/embed.tpl
MatchFile=embed/image.tpl
Subdir=templates
Match[class_identifier]=image
