[wp-hackers] Uploader to send to different field

[Andre SC]

Hi

 I'm building a plugin that creates posts (and meta stuff) through a 
customized editing screen that contains a couple of fields in stead of 
the usual content editing field.

 I would like users to be able to use the default uploader to upload 
images etc. as per usual - but want to send the uploaded item's uri to 
one of the custom fields instead. (e.g place  a dropdown  listing 
available fields to send to in the uploader or  something like a upload 
button next to the relevant custom field that uses the normal upload 
behavior/functionality)

 Hoping a kind soul might share some ideas on the best (or even just a 
workable :) way to achieve this in 2.3.x?

 What's the prognosis for doing this with the new uploader?

 Thanx

A
