Hi Dennis

Ok, done. And there's no work-around until it's solved?

Hi Bruno,

I haven´t heard of any work-around, how to solve this, and sometimes the work-arounds, will be placed on the case in the issue tracker.

But you could vote for it and make a comment on the issue, so the HQ is aware that there are other that experience the same with the GetMedia on Umbraco 7.1.9

Hi Bruno

There is no workaround if you want to use XSLT. Otherwise you could try to use Razor instead. As long as macroes are kept seperate you can easily use XSLT and Razor macroes in the same project. However it can be a bit confusing to keep track of the different technologies being used though.

But using Razor might be the way forward if you need to get something finished and ready for deploy quickly since there is no official timestamp for a fixed version.

In the documentation for the image cropper you can see some Razor examples showing how to fetch images as well http://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Using-Umbraco/Backoffice-Overview/Property-Editors/Built-in-Property-Editors-v7/Image-Cropper

Hope this helps.

Hi Jan

I'll try to have a look at Razor, although my previous experience with it tells me it will take me a million hours to make a simple script work :) Maybe I can get things working faster using .net c# :)

Hi Bruno

Well I'm not a big Razor wizard and I prefer XSLT as well. But the Razor implementation has got a lot better in v7 than it was in earlier releases. 6 was fine too.

And since Razor is a subset of c# I'm sure you'll figure it out pretty quickly :)

Ok, I threw something together that works as a temporary work-around. It's not pretty, but it'll do until a fix has been made.

I made some .net implemented as a usercontrol, here's the codebehind:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.Mail;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.Profile;
using System.Xml;
using System.Xml.XPath;
using umbraco.BusinessLogic;
using umbraco.cms.businesslogic.media;
using umbraco.cms.businesslogic.member;
using umbraco.cms.businesslogic.web;
using Umbraco.Web;
using System.Web.Security;
using umbraco.presentation.nodeFactory;
using System.Runtime.Remoting;
using System.Web.Script.Serialization;


namespace WebApplication2.Usercontrols
{
    public partial class MediaGet : System.Web.UI.UserControl
    {


        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Page.Validate();
            if (Page.IsValid)
            {
                int mediaId = Convert.ToInt32(Request.QueryString["id"]);
                Media file = new Media(mediaId);
                string url = file.getProperty("umbracoFile").Value.ToString();

                Response.Write("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>");
                Response.Write("<nodes>");
                Response.Write("<url>");
                Response.Write(url);
                Response.Write("</url>");
                Response.Write("</nodes>");

            }
         }


    }
}

I then just call the page /mediaget/

Then I made an XSLT-makro, like this:

<xsl:variable name="getimgurl">http://www.domain.dk/mediaget/?id=<xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:GetXmlNodeById(1050)/baggrundsbillede" /></xsl:variable>

<xsl:variable name="imgurl" select="umbraco.library:GetXmlDocumentByUrl($getimgurl)" />

<xsl:copy-of select="$imgurl" />

The copy-of is just to show me that it works :)

Hope this can assist others while waiting for an actual fix :)

Hi Bruno,

There have been made a pull request now for fixing the issue with the GetMedia in XSLT.

See this https://github.com/umbraco/Umbraco-CMS/pull/587 and http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-5925
