Hi,
I'm looking for advice about how to get a Media file (it's an MS Word
doc) to have a Word icon to its left, that, when clicked upon, opens the
word doc, rather than the Image page for that icon.
I've tried nesting an [[Image:myicon.png]] as the caption for a Media
file, but that doesn't work. I've also tried using
[[Media:mywordfile.doc]] as the caption for the image, and that also
didn't work.
Any guidance welcome.
Also, it might be nice to have another link type (maybe
[[Attachment:myfile.txt]] which creates a reference to a list of
attachments, and then elsewhere in the doc, use something like
[[Inline:Attachments]] or whatever to create a table of files with icon,
filename, maybe file size, mod date, author, etc.
If possible, please CC me in replies, I quickly fall behind on reading
this thread.
cheers,
-Nick
