Hi, great it works, although indeed there remain some questions.

When i ad an image to a page with Associated Media / image, then when
using the code:

<skin:view objectid="#stobj.SourceImage#" typename="dmImage"
template="displaySourceImage" />

I get:

Element SOURCEIMAGE is undefined in STOBJ.

I assume SOURCEIMAGE would be the relation to the related content
image, so don't understand why it isn't showed.

Any idea's??
