I think the problem is rather that the script is not okay.

First it is obvious that at mediawiki the script has no results (no extra buttons shown). That's strange because you would think there should be a working script!

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Editpage.js This is the script I used. I altered like I wrote the destination of the buttons itself and placed them on my site (of course some I made myself).

This line should also puzzles me: {'imageFile': 'http://upload.wikimedia.org/' + img, Shouldn't it be to my own site (I tried but am not sure what the url should be) And I think it is connected with the urls of the buttons?

If you read it (I'm to too technical, and can read only the basic) this is strange: This file is uploaded: importScript('MediaWiki:Scripts/Edittools1.js'). 1. there is no such script 2. "Scripts/" looks strange to me 3. there is a 'MediaWiki:Edittools.js' but uploading (and correcting the script) had no effect. http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Edittools.js Then I noticed this: loadCommonsEdittoos - twice No "l" there: loadCommonsEdittools But no effect here either (nor in combination of above). Nor using it together with the button links in the script. Rein

Me too, (but I only use "text display" and not "button fashion" for the text to insert, and that's enough for me) It's seems that perharps successive version exist to make edittools work, but differently with/or without "button images" ? but it remains possible to adapt the <span> with css ? For me just [[MediaWiki:Edittols]], Common.js, Common.css, and Charinsert extension and the {{+|+}} (Sorry you can't edit my site if you are not logged as asso user) So Rein, look/search for the term "edittols" in http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Common.js @+ de jfb "enjoy my 0.02$" ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alexis Moinet" &lt;alexis.moinet(a)fpms.ac.be&gt; To: "Mediawiki" &lt;mediawiki-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org&gt; Sent: Friday, June 06, 2008 2:55 PM Subject: Re: [Mediawiki-l] making extra buttons in edit page tool > Rein wrote : >> I think the problem is rather that the script is not okay. > > well, it works fine on my local vanilla install :-) > > >> First it is obvious that at mediawiki the script has no results >> (no extra >> buttons shown).
