    Using XLT with Upload function in page content

    This may seem like an easy/fundamental question, but I'm new to umbraco and XSLT and Macros, so please humor me here :)

    I am utilizing a Jquery slideshow and want to make it easy for Content Editors to update the images. So I've set up a tab on my Document type as an uploader and want that to be able to update the images displayed (there will be three)

    How do I set and XSLT/Macro so that when the Editor uses the upload property it will update this, what's the connection?

     

    Thanks for your help.

    Sean,

    Here's the syntax to return the url for a media property:

     

    <xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:GetMedia($currentPage/data[@alias='propertyname'], 0)/data [@alias = 'umbracoFile']"/>

      You can place this in a link or image tag (depending on how you query functions).  Just replace 'propertyname' with the name of your property.  repeat three times for all three images.

    -Chris

    Thanks Chris,

    Yeah I was wondering what the connection was for connecting the Macro to the Document Type property. I got it to work! Thanks!
