    How can I access parent node value in template of child node?

    Hello All,

    Thanks for your replies till now.

    I have question and I really stuck here.

    What my question is that how can I access parent node value in template of child node?

    Lets say News is having a property called News publish date, so in news template I can use it this way.

    <umbraco:Item field="PublishDate"
 runat="server"></umbraco:Item>,

    At the same time I have news item lets say News1 and on that I want to print value of NewsPublish date that derives from parent node [E.g News].

    Please let me know how can I do that?

    Regards

    Jigar

    Add recursive="true" to the property, or use xslt

    <umbraco:Item field="PublishDate" recursive="true" runat="server"></umbraco:Item>

    or

    <xsl:value-of select="$currentPage/../data [@alias='publishDate'] />

    Thansk mate.. This is works fine.

     

    Now what is want is that i want to use this property in <asp-form> tag.

    Let me explain in detail.

    Normally when we want to pass any value to user control we write some thing like

    <ASPNET_FORM>
                <umbraco:Macro Alias="SendMail" runat="server" EmailBody="[#EmailBody]" >   </umbraco:Macro>
    </ASPNET_FORM>

    and  the above code will find "EmailBody" property from the content and send it to User control. This works fine.

     

    Now what i want is that the EmailBody is there in parent node and i want to send it user control. than how can i do that?

    Please reply.

    Regards

    Jigar

    Perhaps inline xslt is your friend in this case? ->  http://umbraco.org/documentation/books/inline-xslt
