Hi Folks,
Most of the following explanation is for my benefit with the expectation that I will get corrections where I misunderstand, but the real question is just the last line of this message.
I have an audio field which plays mp3s just fine. I need to occasionally download them. When I configure a content type, I can select a display field type of "Audio Player" or "Audio Player with Download". I need "Audio Player with Download", but this is a cruel joke! "Left-Click" just gets me "Play"; "Download" requires "Right-Click". When I "Inspect Element", I see a reasonably complicated block of HTML for each "Audio Player with Download".
<section class="field field-name-field-tl field-type-file field-label-inline clearfix view-mode-full"> <h2 class="field-label">TL: </h2> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item even"> <object class="audioplayer2" height="24" width="290" data="/sites/all/libraries/audioplayers/audio-player/player.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"> <param value="/sites/all/libraries/audioplayers/audio-player/player.swf" name="movie"> <param value="playerID=2&bg=0xCDDFF3&leftbg=0x357DCE&lefticon=0xF2F2F2&rightbg=0xF06A51&rightbghover=0xAF2910&righticon=0xF2F2F2&righticonhover=0xFFFFFF&text=0x357DCE&slider=0x357DCE&track=0xFFFFFF&border=0xFFFFFF&loader=0xAF2910&soundFile=http://new.capitolaires.org/sites/default/files/music/tl/Sweet%20And%20Lovely.mp3" name="FlashVars"> <param value="high" name="quality"> <param value="false" name="menu"> <param value="transparent" name="wmode"> </object> <div class="audio-download"><b>Download:</b> <span class="file"> <img class="file-icon" alt="" title="audio/mpeg" src="/modules/file/icons/audio-x-generic.png"> <a href="http://new.capitolaires.org/sites/default/files/music/tl/Sweet%20And%20Lovely.mp3" type="audio/mpeg; length=1707678">Sweet And Lovely.mp3</a> </span> </div> </div> </div> </section>
The way I see it, I can either hack this field to make it do what I want or I can create a display field that does what I want.
"Hacking" would involve:
1. I can re-jigger the whole node in JavaScript. 2. Find the code which renders "Audio Field with Download" in core, and write a module that will intercept that output and modify it to the structure I want before it becomes part of the page
"Creating" would involve:
1. Find the code which renders "Audio Field with Download" in core, and copy it as a Custom Formatter for "Audio Field with Download, Really"
I don't think either of my "hacking" options are very future-proof, which leaves me with my preference, "creating", but I need to know where the code which renders the display field "Audio Field with Download" lives. Can anybody tell me w here can I find the code that outputs the HTML I see when I define a display field as "Audio File with Download"?
Thanks for the help,
Chris.
