The mediaLinkId variable is set correctly but the problem comes when I try and use the variable with the GetMedia call, it throws a parsing error. Should this not work?
Ah, I'm an idiot, that's the explanation! This code was in a loop and some of the elements will not have a media link id set, hence it was breaking! D'oh!
umbraco.Library:GetMedia() Problem
Can someone tell me why this doesn't work:
<xsl:variable name="mediaLinkId" select="data [@alias = 'media']"/>
<xsl:variable name="mediaUrl" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia($mediaLinkId, 1)/data" />
The mediaLinkId variable is set correctly but the problem comes when I try and use the variable with the GetMedia call, it throws a parsing error. Should this not work?
Any help would be appreciated!
Cheers,
Robert
Try wrapping a check around it

Yep, that seems to have worked, great thanks!
What's the explanation for the solution?

Cheers for your quick reply!
Haha....I had this exact same problem.... and couldn't figure it out.
Shows you should always check a value of a field in code before you use it.
This drove me nuts!
