paul bolger	Wednesday 01 June 2011 5:52:45 am I need to pull an image in the short_description field in a folder. If I use $child.object.data_map.short_description.object.embedded_contentobject_array.0.current.data_map.image I seem to get all the embedded objects for the object rather than just the ones in short_description - and in no particular order. How do I call just one field? Paul Bolger
Peter Keung	Wednesday 01 June 2011 7:28:43 am Try using the related_objects fetch and specifying an attribute: http://doc.ez.no/eZ-Publish/Technical-manual/4.x/Reference/Modules/content/Fetch-functions/related_objects http://www.mugo.ca Mugo Web, eZ Partner in Vancouver, Canada
paul bolger	Thursday 02 June 2011 6:46:58 pm Thanks Peter, I'll give that a try. Seems a bit crazy that you can't directly get the embedded objects out of a particular xml field. Has this changed since 3.x? I used the line above in a project a few years ago (3.8) and it seemed to work ok then. Paul Bolger
