Let's again look at that 'getFileJS'. You'll see that those links come in to play. You will see that here I have 'load the links to the page' document links, and I'm adding it to a variable called 'documentLinks'. [01:15:37](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvzDyVQyHDI&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=01h15m37s) In the Custom script, 'getFileJS' you'll see if I'll take this copy and search, you'll see that I'm using that array and saying, is this property there? [01:16:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvzDyVQyHDI&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=01h16m03s) And then creating a link. That is how we deal with some of that. It works very well, to sort of pass value from JavaScript to PHP, and have it available there.
I know this was a lot of [01:16:22](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvzDyVQyHDI&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=01h16m22s) things to take in, and I would expect you to realize that the previous implementation is much easier. But like you've seen when someone does create a document, and they are able to easily drag and drop stuff, it crops it and gives your component a much easier for you feel to it. [01:16:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvzDyVQyHDI&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=01h16m52s) Instead of the olds you could still do the old select But the Drag and Drop is Becoming quite popular. And this implementation is Really Very Very Yeah it's very nice to have. And I'm sure from what I've shown you you should be able to get this going in your component. [01:17:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvzDyVQyHDI&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=01h17m14s) I'm not really gonna give support on to this meaning that If you get stuck you on your own. Because if It is really the truth that you will need to know your JavaScript. you'll need to know Your PHP. and you will need to know how to debug. And how to line-up these Concepts That they all [01:17:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvzDyVQyHDI&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=01h17m36s) I work in Synergy together. It's not gonna be So easy for me to Do that. Specially since I usually do not see the code. But if there isn't any of the code that I've share on Gits, Which I will also put in the description below this video. Even have that code has issues in it, [01:17:57](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvzDyVQyHDI&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=01h17m57s) Or errors in it that the That are like ok a very big problem or something. Then please do feel free to Give me a heads up over there. And we'll collaborate Improve it as Necessary. At the end of the day This feature is really way behind What [01:18:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvzDyVQyHDI&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=01h18m19s) What you really need. There is a media manager in In Joomla Which is actually ideal. The advantage about this way is that your user is Is never gonna interfere with other users documents or images or Stuff. So if you use this concept they not ever gonna actually look on your server at a list And select stuff. This is why I think people would like this [01:18:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvzDyVQyHDI&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=01h18m43s) Because they can upload stuff in It doesn't affect other people. it doesn't make you more vulnerable as the owner of the system Who uses the application. So it is I think we better approach. But like I said there is a media manager. So if you go to content There is a media manager. And there is a media file type. Which [01:19:07](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvzDyVQyHDI&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=01h19m07s) Works very well And And can also add These kind of functionality to your component If this is a little bit too challenge To a big of a challenge for you.
