Hi Nicolai

Can you provide us with your XSLT-code that you use to render the content?

I think you are pretty close.

Try this approach:

<xsl:value-of select="$fileId/data[@alias='umbracoFile']" />

From what I can see, you have got the XML content of the media-item in the $fileId-variable, but I'm just guessing from the details you provided above :)

<xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>

<xsl:param name="currentPage"/>

<xsl:template match="/">

<xsl:variable name="fileId" select="/macro/FileId"/>
<xsl:variable name="fileURL" select="/macro/FileURL"/>
<xsl:variable name="fwidth" select="/macro/FWidth"/>
<xsl:variable name="fheight" select="/macro/FHeight"/>
<xsl:variable name="cssId" select="/macro/CssId"/>
<xsl:variable name="urlParameters" select="/macro/UrlParameters"/>

<xsl:if test="$fileId != '' or $fileURL != ''">
  <xsl:variable name="trueFileURL">
    <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="$fileId != ''">
      <xsl:value-of select="$fileId/node/data[@alias = 'umbracoFile']"/>
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise>
      <xsl:value-of select="$fileURL"/>
    </xsl:otherwise>
    </xsl:choose>
  </xsl:variable>

Tried removing "node" but nothing happened

Are you using the new or the old XML schema?

And what does your $fileId contain? Only the choosen id from the media picker?

If $fileId contais a media id you shopuld be able to get the path to the media this way if you are using the old schema:

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

And this way if you are using the new schema:

<xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:GetMedia($fileId,0)/umbracoFile" />

I'm not sure what you mean, but this is the macro

<umbraco:Macro FileId="1081" FileURL="" FWidth="960" FHeight="250" CssId="" UrlParameters="" Alias="InsertFlash" runat="server"></umbraco:Macro>

In the macro FileId then becomes "demo/media/103/top.swfswf533359", guessing from mediaCurrent processing it.

I have tried both your examples and on the mainpage it writes "error in the macro file"

Ty so much Matthias.

Just tested it and the did the trick.

is working on a reply...
