Default File Save Location

I just downloaded and installed Xinah and I'm getting familiar with it, so I'm a Newbie.

Sorry if this has been asked previously, but verious searches on teh site have not yielded a similar question or the answer I'm looking for.

I've figured out how to set the default file name for a file to be saved from NoName to something else, however when I save the page the default File Save location is my Desktop (running Xinha on desktop web server to gain familiarity before loading on server-based system).

How do I configure Xinah so I can set a default file save location or better yet, hard code the file name and save location?  This way all the user does is click the save button and it saves without them getting the Save As dialog.

I'm looking to have one version of the editor hard coded like this and use another version for standard editing.

Thanks.

Re: Default File Save Location

Well, that all depends on your CMS which is implementing Xinha, doesn't it?  I don't recall any plugin in Xinha which allows saving files itself.

Re: Default File Save Location

Sorry, hopefully this helps.

I'm not using a CMS per se, I have my desktop running a generic web server which I'm using to host the Xinha web site as a stand-along environment.  I will however, be making this part of a bigger server-based web environment once I finish the development work, however even then it will be a site hosted on a web server providing inline WYSIWYG web editing.

When I have a Xinha Editor Open and there is a save button which looks liked stacked floppies.  I click this button and the modal for Save HTML Document pops up with a default save location of my Desktop.

This is the action I would like to hard ocde to be a a specific html file name and have it save to a specific relative location.

Possible?

No.

The "save button" can only save to your own computer that the browser is running on, the extent of Xinha's input there is "tell the browser to save", what happens from there out is a matter for the developers at Microsoft, Mozilla etc...

In my opinion, it should probably be removed from Xinha by default because it probably just confuses people.

You need to submit the form which is containing Xinha to some system which does stuff with the Html Xinha created, what exactly that is, is up to you.
