    getting a media folder name from id

    How do i get the name of a folder located in the media section from it s ID?

    Example:
    i have a folder called "instruments" with an id of "1262"

    How do i get umbraco to render "instruments" instead of "1262".

    Any help is appreciated. Thanks

    Folder is a media type just like Image or File, so you should be able to use Getmedia to get the xml for the folder.

    thats what i thought, but

    [code]

    [/code]

    renders all the files insdide the folder, and not the folder name...

    Hi,

    new Node(1262).Text or umbraco.library:GetXmlNodeById(id)/@nodeName

    (Not sure which option you've choosen, xslt or user control?)

    Regards,

    Yes that is by design. You have to look for the nodeName attribute:



    Sorry for not being clear enough.

    Thanks again, but

    [code]

    [/code]

    Doesn't return anything.

    But if i swap the id with an id of a content node (1047) it returns the nodename just fine?!?!


    Just to clear things up, im using xslt. NOT usercontrol
