Sorry my mistake, I thought I had coded more security than that

The only file types viewable in the RTE file browser are those set by the forum admin in the upload section, so you don't need to edit the RTE_setup.asp file to put in allowed file types.

So yes only valid file types set by the forum admin are viewable.

The image and file upload should be much more secure than in previous versions, and security has been taken into account when coding it.

This is part of the Web Wiz RTE version 3.

Files are first uploaded to a temp folder which is not viewable, once they have been checked out for malicous code, file size, etc. and included in a post are they placed in the public upload folder.

You can set what files and images are allowed to be viewed in the public upload folder by editing the RTE_setup.asp files, but by defualt only safe file types can be viewed.

The RTE file bowser will only allow you to move around the public upload folder and sub folders, and will only display allowd file and image types, so is quite secure.

Noticed that when I upload an image, I can see file names uploaded byother people. The names don't mean a lot but if I click on one itpreviews. Seems like this could eat a lot of badwidth as people browseimages.
 
Also, and more importantly, any directories in the image uploadfolder are viewable and browsable. The window should onlydisplay valid image extensions as set by the forum admin.
