Get image id?

Anyone know a tag to return the image id used in the article image box in the write tab please?

best wishes

Nope, but this should do the trick:

<txp:php>echo $GLOBALS['thisarticle']['article_image'];</txp:php>

Thanks very much, could I trouble you to get it to return the txp assigned file name and not just the id:) Please

So for example:
33.jpg and not 33
28.gif and not 28

I think this will return the image URL.

<txp:php>echo preg_replace('/^.*?src="([^"]+)".*$/', '$1', article_image(array()));</txp:php>

And if it does, this should return the filename:

<txp:php>echo preg_replace('/^.*?src="[^"]*?([^"\/]+)".*$/', '$1', article_image(array()));</txp:php>

I thought upm_image could do both tasks: return the image ID and the file extension. But I’m looking at the help and it seems there isn’t any tag to return the file extension.

Hi Rudd, the two snippets don’t return anything at all for me.
Hi Julián, thanks for the help.

Edited earlier post, it contained an error.

Hi Rudd, thanks for your time; both snippets give the article id.

Third attempt (this happens when you write code without testing).

Thank you Rudd, your help is much appreciated – working perfectly.
