[pmwiki-users] "Upload new version" attachment markup

[Petko Yotov]

You don't need all of this, just set in config.php something like:

  $IMapLinkFmt['Attach:'] =
    "<a rel='nofollow' class='urllink' href='\$LinkUrl'>\$LinkText</a><a 
      rel='nofollow' class='createlink' href='\$LinkUpload'>Δ</a>";

This will redefine the Attach: link format. Clicking on the Delta letter after 
the file link will let you upload a new version.
