url of article image

Am I missing something?
I just need the url of an article image (only the http://-part), not the whole html <img>-tag shabang that comes with it. How do I do it?

If you’re running TXP 4.3.0, take your pick from either:

<txp:images><txp:image_url /></txp:images>

or the cheating method:

<txp:image_url id='<txp:custom_field name="article_image" /> ' />

The first one’s (probably) more efficient. Hope that helps.

Re: url of article image

why don’t you use a custom field?

Edit: check bloke’s answer:)

Re: url of article image

Thanks Bloke, you’re great!
The cheating method works, the other one doesn’t because I’m using multiple article images per article.
Luckily I’m using TXP 4.3.0, the new image-tags in 4.3.0 are very welcome. :-)
