Member	gatsby0121 - 6/14/2011 10:31:44 AM Image selection code behind I have a webpart that uses an image selection field. What's the code behind function to retrieve the url of the image. I have only been able to find the transformation code, which isn't what I'm looking for.

RE:Image selection code behind

To further clarify, this works in a transformation for the document using image selection:

<img src="<%# GetDocumentUrl("HeaderImage", "") %>" />

But I have an image selection in a webpart, and I'd like to be able to display that on pages where I use the webpart, which is why I need the c# code to resolve an image selection field.

Hi,

The image selector field returs GUID and you can use following code to create path to image:


Guid iguid = new Guid("98de82d1-5eec-46cd-b491-42a31f31e1d2");
       
        // Tree node
        CMS.TreeEngine.TreeNode node = null;
      
        // Tree provider
        UserInfo ui = UserInfoProvider.GetUserInfo("administrator");
        CMS.TreeEngine.TreeProvider tree = new CMS.TreeEngine.TreeProvider(ui);
     
       // Get Single node specified by it`s GUID, culture code, site code
        node = tree.SelectSingleNode(iguid, "en-US", "CorporateSite");

        image.ImageUrl = "/Virtual_server_name_if_you_use_some"+ node.NodeAliasPath + ".aspx";

Best regards,
