TinyMCE editor Image Manager/Upload in Django

Question

I am using TinyMCE editor, and it is great. But I having problems with including images. I have been hunting for free image hosting, but that doesn't seem easy to come by. So I finally decided I will upload the image to my own space but for that also I need to write the proper script.

I have found solutions but that are for Asp.net MVC and I am working in Django/Python. Can anybody guide me in how I can write the javascript that will add a browse button to the image popup, so that the user can can upload an image from his computer or provide a direct link to an online image.

Any help is really appreciated.

You may try django-ckeditor. It's another JS editor, but much better for me and upload works "out of the box" — Denis Kabalkin, Jan 14 '12 at 12:31
For the upload part, where are the files uploaded? Are they uploaded on our own server or does it use third party image hosting — Sachin, Jan 14 '12 at 14:31
On your server. https://github.com/shaunsephton/django-ckeditor#installation. You only need to specify CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_PATH — Denis Kabalkin, Jan 14 '12 at 15:21
@DenisKabalkin Thanks alot, it definitively seems to be a better solution than using TinyMCE. — Sachin, Jan 14 '12 at 16:01
