UBB.Developers Forums General Discussion Chit Chat Has anyone ever thought of..

Making a hack for IE that when you right click an image it has an option to put it's location and the ubb image code in the clipboard?

That would be a lot easier than going into the image's properties everytime..

Guess not.

*smacks head on desk*

Copy this into a file called "image.htm" and save it in the root of your C: drive:Copy the following code into a file called image.reg:Double click the .reg file and choose yes.
Delete the .reg file.
Open a new IE window and right click on an image.
Choose Copy Location.
Voila.

Just a thought

Or to copy it to clipboard as UBB code, create the following image.htm file:

nav, you've never seen tell cal™ before?

IE shell extensions rock. You can read more about them here: http://www.microsoft.com/ie/ie40/powertoys/?/ie/ie40/powertoys/Contextm.htm

Whoa.. Thanks Cal!

Well, I've been trying to get it to work..

Before it wasn't creating the key.. So I went into regedit and made it myself..

But.. it still isn't working..

Right. Create the key

HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftInternet ExplorerMenuExtCopy Location

first. Then set the default property to

C:image.htm

(no need for double slash if you enter it manually). Then add a hex key called 'contexts' and set it to 2.
