Insert a custom field inside a line of code?

Is there any way at all I can insert a custom field inside a line of code?

Essentially I want my form to look something like <img src=”<txp:custom field name>” /> and that would print out <img src=“imagename.jpg”>

Re: Insert a custom field inside a line of code?

yes you can do that, although it should read something like

<txp:if_custom_field name="image"><img src="<txp:custom field name="image" />" /></txp:if_custom_field>

Note that the code needs to reside in an article form and presupposes a custom field the name of which is “image”…

Edit… Also if you know that your images are always going to be jpgs you can have something like

<txp:if_custom_field name="image"><img src="<txp:custom field name="image" />.jpg" /></txp:if_custom_field>

which is going to save you some typing long term.
