It should be possible. Did you concat() the strings (property name and index) and eventually encapsulate the result in a string()-function?

I believe you need the 'MediaCurrent' - property type instead of PropertyTypePicker. How many sidebarImage fields is the maximum? if your intention is to make a solution where the user can choose an indefinite number of sidebar-images, you're probably better off making a datatype for this purpose, but if you just have, say, 4 fields you could just hardcode the property names in your xslt

I don't have the code any more! I tried so many things that I / it got lost :-(

I managed to concat() "SidebarImage" and "1" (or what ever was passed in) but couldn't make use of it.

It isn't something for a user to do / use - it's built into the template / doc type. They have (currently) between 1 and 3 image / link pairs to use - it varies by doc type. In the template, I wanted to insert a macro call (the required number of times) which passed in the index value (1,2 or 3) and for it to produce the and HTML as appropriate (i.e no link if "SidebarLink" is empty) in the appropriate place.

Basically, I think I need to know how to concatenate "SidebarImage" and "1" to get "SidebarImage1" and to then be able to access the page property of that name, which will give me the ID of a media library image. Then I "just" need to get the path to the image and create a tag!

OK, I have the following XSLT which works, but I have to select "Ignore errors" when saving?!

Have I got something wrong, or is there something missing?

This is the error I get -

Hi Gordon,

Error is what it says... Any time you're using variables or parameters, consider adding xsl:if constructs as those var/params have NO actual value until runtime and at saving time, the xslt is checked against the topnode which may or may not exist on that top level node!

Hope this helps.

Yes, it did thank you :-)

I added an xsl:if around the img tag bit and it now saves without error.

is working on a reply...
