im glad you like it…. and what you say does make sense… it makes it alot more flexible.

dont forget to remove the $row line i said in the other post….

if you dont remove it, it starts to take text from the last image in the article… in my case this is nothing which is why it comes up as blanc. When you remove the line, it takes text from the beggining of the article… It starts with the first letter of the first line.

oh, and thanks for the thanks!

After you do the above, it dosent display any text…. so you need to remove one more line from the helper.php file. Find the line:

$row->introtext = preg_replace( $regex1, ”, $row->introtext );

and remove it… don’t add anything else!

NOW WORKS LIKE A CHARM!</blockquote>

I didn’t remove this. Didn’t see your post until just now. I have text showing? Hmmm. Maybe I will leave this alone for now. No sense fixing it if it aint broke as they say.

Thanks again!

Ok paint me dumb…. I see what you are saying about that other line now. I had text… wrong text. Took the line out… fine now.

changing line 23 in helper.php (just add U behind the existing line) from

$regex = "/<img.+srcs*=s*"([^"]*)"[^>]*>/";

to

$regex = "/<img.+srcs*=s*"([^"]*)"[^>]*>/U";

sets the string to ungreedy. Now it should alway display the first article image.
