ImageControl Server Control

The ImageControl server control, when viewed on a Web form, displays an image stored within the Ektron CMS400.NET Document Management feature. If a user logs in and has permission to edit the image, he can right click the image and select Edit. This action displays a dialog box with which the user can update the image.

Warning! Images are stored as assets using the Document Management feature. This control does not use the Ektron CMS400.NET Library.
