Media xml

Hi! :) Is there any way to see the full xml for the media files, just like I can see the full content xml in /data/umbraco.config? And are those image property names (umbracoWidth, umbracoSize, etc.) some special "system" names, or is there any way to change them?

Hi Gert,

When using GetMedia(ID, false()) you get something like this:

<node id="3329" version="5b48a198-8012-411d-a4f0-152b17f34952" parentID="3328" level="3" writerID="2" nodeType="1032" template="0" sortOrder="1" createDate="2010-03-05T16:20:53" updateDate="2010-03-05T16:20:53" nodeName="movie" urlName="movie" writerName="Redaktør" nodeTypeAlias="Image" path="-1,2663,3328,3329">
    <data alias="umbracoFile">/media/31618/movie.flv</data>
    <data alias="umbracoWidth" />
    <data alias="umbracoHeight" />
    <data alias="umbracoBytes">5831547</data>
    <data alias="umbracoExtension">flv</data>
  </node>

Yes, they are reserved system names.

Gert, when you want to see the XML that Chriztian provided, you could do something like this:
```
<xsl:variable name="imgUrl" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia($currentPage/data [@alias = 'mainImage'], 'false')"/>
<textarea>
   <xsl:copy-of select="$imgUrl"/>
</textarea>
```
This would give you the XML in the textarea, and you can the copy the XML from there and into Visual Studio/Notepad etc., to get a better view of the code.

Just a small tip, when you want to view your XMLin the future :)
