    Getting ALL images from media library

    I need to list all images from the media library. I know you think why? But i just need to :)
    Seeing as the media library root node doesnt seem to have an id,im a bit lost
    Im trying to start in a folder, work my way to the root, and then down again by:

    <xsl:for-each select="umbraco.library:GetMedia(1279, 1)/ancestor-or-self::*/descendant-or-self::*/Image" >

    But it only gets me the images from the current folder for some reason...

    Any help appreciated.

    Hi Claus,

    That's actually not possible (as you found out) - the XML you get back does not have the full context, so you need a little help... and uComponents is your friend (as always :-)

    Checkout this extension: GetMediaByXPath()

    I hit the same "wall" in my LatestEditsDashboard package and found that gem - but it requires uComponents of course, which may not be a real problem :-)

    So you should be able to do this:

    <xsl:for-each select="ucomponents.media:GetMediaByXPath('/')//Image" >
  <!-- stuff -->
</xsl:for-each>

    If you need a fallback for when uComponents isn't available, check the source code here for how I do that.
