[Plugin: AddQuicktag] Is caption adding possible?

    I was wondering if there was a way to add a caption button that would ask for three things:
    1. {link} = location of image file
    2. {title} = title of image file
    3. {align} = alignment (left|right|center|none)

    with these params it should output:
    [caption caption="{title}" width="200" align="align{align}"]<a href="{link}" title="{title}"><img src="{link}" width="200" alt="{title}" /></a>[/caption]

    of course, for complete functionality it should also ask for width, but since i want all my captions 200px, i don’t really need that.

    Now would that be possible?
    I know it cannot be done with your plugin as is.
    I was wondering how the quicktags.js would look for such a button…

    in case anyone else needs this: i’ve solved it.
    because i didn’t need both [img] and [caption] image, i just modified
    quicktags.dev.js like this (around line 379):

    function edInsertImage(myField) {
	var myUrl = prompt('quicktagsL10n.enterImageURL', 'http://');
	if (( myUrl !== 'http://') && ( myUrl !== null)) {
		var myTitle = prompt('quicktagsL10n.enterImageDescription', '');
		var myAlign = prompt('Insert image alignment\n( left | right | center | none )', 'left');
		myValue = ' [caption width="200" align="align'
				+ myAlign
				+ '" caption="'
				+ myTitle
				+ '"]<a href="'
				+ myUrl
				+ '" title="'
				+ myTitle
				+ '"><img src="'
				+ myUrl
				+ '" width="200" alt="'
				+ myTitle
				+ '" /></a>[/caption] ';
		edInsertContent(myField, myValue);
	}
}

    Of course, would have been nicer to have 4 radio-buttons for selecting the alignment, but since I’m not much of a programmer and couldn’t find a proper example, they’ll just have to type in the alignment. It’s way better than having them type the caption/a/img list of commands.
    This is for users who really don’t know their way around HTML.

    If anyone has a better idea of how to do this in a more elegant way (plugin-like, so it stands to WP upgrades) I’d be quite happy to hear about it.

    Cheers.
