    Display media item contents using template.

    Hi there,

    I have written an extension that uploads a number of text files as media items and I would like to be able to display the contents of the file using some code in the template and I am unsure where to start.

    I have had a look around the forum and did a goolge search but was unable to find anything that I could use.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Steven

    I found a solution using razor;

          @if(Model.HasProperty("file") && !String.IsNullOrEmpty(Model.GetProperty("file").Value)){

            string filePath = Server.MapPath(@Model.MediaById(Model.file).umbracoFile);
            if (File.Exists(filePath))
            {
              @File.ReadAllText(filePath);
            }
          }

    If there are any cleaner solutions feel free to let me know :-)
