Interesting… If that works, it takes away the most complicated part of this whole thing. Hacking up the quicktags.js file to only need the filename of the original is easy enough.

w00t!
Taking the code from that sitepoint article and reworking it to fit what I’m doing, I now have javascript that only requires me to enter the filename of the original and does everything else I need. Only trouble is that the popup window isn’t resizing in firefox. Does work in IE.
I’m testing this script: here
Could you give a look in your browser and see if the popup is resizing?

Verified working in IE 6 and Moz 1.6 for Windows.
Verified non-working in Firefox 0.8 for Windows.
Yes, I understand firefox users, on a global scale, are a small percentage. However, IE only accounts for 41% of traffic to my site. The other 59% is made up of firefox and Mac or Linux users. Cross-browser functionality is important to me.

ARGH!!!!
Another V8 moment. ??
I did not have firefox setup to allow javascript to resize windows. Once I enabled that feature, the script worked perfectly. For my purposes, the hack works. I don’t mind first uploading and then posting. Here is the final code in my quicktags.js file:
function edInsertImage(myField) {
var myValue = prompt('Enter the filename of the image', '');
if (myValue) {
myValue = '
+ myValue
+ '" onclick="window.open(\'popup.htm?/images/'
+ myValue
+ '\',\'\',\'resizeable=1,width=200,height=200\'); return false"'
+ '>'
+ '<img src="/images/thumb-'
+ myValue
+ '" alt="' + prompt('Enter a description of the image', '')
+ '" />';
edInsertContent(myField, myValue);
}
}
A couple notes: This assumes images are being uploaded to the /images directory at the web root, using relative URLs. It also assumes “thumb-” naming of the thumbnail. This works for me, since that’s how the file uploader is set to work. Your needs may vary.
In addition, you will need a file named popup.htm. You can just copy directly the code from the sitepoint article linked to above by RobotHero.
I may still play with this for a little while. Anyone knows how to clean this up or enhance, please share. After I’ve used it for a bit, I’ll post an entry with full hack instructions on my blog and figure out where (wiki? new hacks thread?) is appropriate to link to it so others may benefit. I can’t be the only one who would like this.
Thanks, all!

Sakamuyo – Firefox is working for me and I am running .08 on Windows XP.

Yeah. Started working for me once I checked the option in my preferences to allow javascript to resize windows. ??
Thanks for confirming!

thanks!
