ASP.NET: Changing UserFiles Directory using the Session object

[Steve Williams]

The documentation for the .NET installation states that you can define the browsing directory by setting Session["FCKeditor:UserFilesPath"] in the Page_Init and it does not work, however after reviewing the source code I found that the Application object does work. Could the documentation be corrected or this issue resolved. Thanks.

this does NOT work

protected void Page_Init(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Session["FCKeditor:UserFilesPath"] = "~/testdir";
}

This does work

protected void Page_Init(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Application["FCKeditor:UserFilesPath"] = "~/testdir";
}

IE7, WinXP Pro, .NET 2.0

There is a new ASP.NET control available: CKEditor for ASP.NET. The issue is no longer valid as the new control does not have the built-in file browser and the old one is no longer maintained.
