Re: Is there a way to get just the file name extension of an Attribute placeholder using render tag

Ravi!

Solution:

<%!! Escape:Text(<%att_med_pdf_filename%>.Substring(Escape:Text(<%att_med_pdf_filename%>).LastIndexOf(.)) !!%>

Currently I'm using PreExecute code with ASP function to get the file extension from an Attribute(Media) placeholder. Pls see the code below

<%=GetFileExtension("<%att_med_pdf_filename%>")%>

I would like to get the same result using render tag, Is that possible with something like the code below?

Context:CurrentPage.Elements.GetElement(att_med_pdf_filename).Value

Thanks,

Ravi

Hi Jian,

Not sure whats going wrong but that did not work. I tried the following code & none of the placeholders (Media or Attribute) worked. They both return nothing.

med_pdf - is the media placeholder

att_pdf - is the attribute placeholder to get the file name out of med_pdf.

 <!-- <%med_pdf%> -->

 <%att_pdf%><br />

ext- <%!! Escape:Text(<%med_pdf%>.Substring(Escape:Text(<%med_pdf%>).LastIndexOf(.)) !!%>

ext- <%!! Escape:Text(<%att_pdf%>.Substring(Escape:Text(<%att_pdf%>).LastIndexOf(.)) !!%>

Thanks,

Ravi

 <%!! Escape:Text(<%med_pdf%>).Substring(Escape:Text(<%med_pdf%>).LastIndexOf(.)) !!%>
