retrieve article image ID content (or similar)
Hi all,
How do I retrieve (by txp tags) the ID of an image included in an article, or the content of the article_image field in the write tab?
thank you for your help :-)

Not possible (afaik) by using just TXP built-in tags. Try upm_image, smd_gallery or soo_image.

thank you… i try the plugins you suggested me, even if i need just to the id number to append to a customized url.
This is going into a javascript variable to perform an effect (oh… my english :-(

You will probably find them useful for other crazy ideas that could come up ;)
Of course, you can probably retrieve the value on the article_image field by just using a few PHP lines, but I leave that for the experts.

grrr.
soo_image fits nearly perfect my purpose, but I need onMouseOver option, and as far I can see, there’s only the option to use onClick

Where do you need onmouseover to appear — in the img tag itself, or in the a tag of a linked thumbnail?
Code is topiary

Re: retrieve article image ID content (or similar)
ok, i explain the problem simply:
I’m trying to adapt a javascript which allow me to show a list of linked thumbnail. When i move the mouse over the thumbnail, the full size image shows in another part of the page.
Apart from the javascript, the tag’s combination i use is this one:
<a href="<txp:permlink />" title="<txp:title />" onMouseOver="showImage('<txp:article_image />')"><txp:article_image thumbnail="1" /></a>
The only part not working is the txp:article_image tag inside the showImage….
You can see it in action here: http://www.fabioborselli.com/violetab/negozio/ (sorry, really messy, layout testing there :-)
if I put a real image url instead of the tag, the script works….
I need to find a way to feed the generated image link to the showImage part… don’t know how… please help me .-)

Re: retrieve article image ID content (or similar)
Someone else asked for something similar today. See my reply in the soo_image support thread. I could add an onmouseover attribute to soo_image, but since what you want is a link to the article I think it will work better using your code but with a tag that produces the article-image URL, as in the link above. I’m pretty sure you could also do this with smd_gallery.

Re: retrieve article image ID content (or similar)
I used the soo_image_url tag.
Now the behaviour is the following.
If I pass the mouse over the thumbnail i see the div holder for the bigger image showing (top right corner)
But what i see is just a “broken link image”, such as when you have a wrong extension for the image.
If I retrieve the url by right clicking the place where the image is supposed to show, i can see the url is almost correct
the right url is infact http://www.fabioborselli.com/violetab/images/84.png
the url generated by the soo_image_url is http://www.fabioborselli.com/images/84.png
that’s strange… if I modify the images path in the preferences… i can’t see anymore either the thumbnail and the full size image…

Glad it works. soo_image is a big plugin to use if all you want from it is article image URL. All you really need is something like this:
function soo_article_image_url () {
global $thisarticle, $img_dir;
assert_article();
$img = $thisarticle['article_image'];
if ( ! $img )
return;
if ( is_numeric($img) ) {
$rs = safe_row('*', 'txp_image', 'id = ' . intval($img));
if ( $rs )
return hu . $img_dir . '/' . $img . $rs['ext'];
}
else
return $img;
}This isn’t one of my officially supported plugins, but here it is if you want to install it:
