Fair enough - maybe share the plugin?

Pre-referencing cannot be done on content elements that are in the same content class. Had to write a little plugin that automatically reference image element to another element of the same page upon page creation. -Jian On Tuesday, August 7, 2012 7:14:42 AM UTC-4, Richard Hauer (5 Limes) wrote: Or... 2 image tags, one set to "URL only" where one references the other? You can preassign the reference I believe.

By that description, I think I am stuck. I need access to the placeholder both ways on the same page level. Even if I forced the editor to add this image on a lower page as a list item or dynamic anchor item, I still can't read the placeholder two ways on the same page using just RedDot placeholders. I am considering light compromises to get a solution. Perhaps the editor could have a more cluncky interface or series of steps. Use RQL (oh no!). Or some other less elegant solution. I don't want the editor to need to enter the image twice. Is there a way our content editors could refresh this cache after an image change? If not, could our developers do it? How? When is the cache problem encountered? For just GetElement() method? All methods accessing only Content Elements? Only Structural Elements? Sounds like GetElement is rather useless. Is there another way to access this image HTML you know of for me to parse out the URL? I doubt I can use VBScript within PreExecute on the image placehlder HTML. The way it is processed, it will cause an error. PHP could do it but it is not available to me on this project.
