so my immediate requirement... I want to collect together a group of images - and then retrieve them and turn the output into XML for use with SlideShowPro.
In my old CMS i'd create a page, relate some images to it and then when i need the xml i'd know the pageid i'd need to get the related images from and go from there. At the moment (Farcry 4) I've created a node under my images branch called rotations and uploaded the images into there. I've been digging around the dmNavigation and tree libraries but can't figure out a way to get the objects beneath the branch... or maybe i could do it similar to my current way and create a page in the site, relate the images to that and go from there...but then all i see is objectIDs when i dump the page so how do i only retrieve image objects related to a page? i think the main difficulty I've got is likening scenarios between the two products... cheers, john.
