Hi all,

I'm setting up a website with the brilliant Dataobject Manager (but I don't think the question is specific to that). To get only the first (second, third) entry I use this template syntax:

<% control MediaAssets %>
	<% if Pos=1 %>
		$displayMediaAsset
	<% end_if %>
<% end_control %>

Is there any better way to get just a specific entry than this method without the <% if %> block?

I tried $displayMediaAsset.1 , $displayMediaAsset(1) , control MediaAssets(1) , control MediaAssets.1 but all of that doesn't work.

It's OK if I use the conditional if but I'm hoping there's a shorter solution.

Cheers!

Yep - ".First":

<% control MediaAssets.First %> 
	$displayMediaAsset 
<% end_control %>

Hi Hamish,

thank you for the reply. Yes, that works for the first Dataobject. What I'm looking for is something like

<% control MediaAssets.Pos(1) %>
	$displayMediaAsset
<% end_control %>

So the Position could be Pos(1), or Pos(2) or Pos(3) etc. But the code above doesn't do anything. What's the best way to write this?

Cheers!
Anatol
