Hey Jonathan, I would first use the Extended Search query to obtain a list of pages based on a specific content class...

A pain in the butt - because firstly, you need to obtain a list of all placeholders within the page in order to determine the guid of the placeholder you want to query - before you can actually retrieve the value! Johns RustyLogic wrapper will save you loads of time doing this!!!!!!!!!!
