Full Version: String manipulation in skin xml
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Is there a way to do string manipulation in skins xml files ? Reason I am asking is that I want to show a picture in the ui when browsing files, problem is that almoust all my files are rar files so the path is something like:
rar://smb:// bla bla

so when loading a picture with $INFO[] it will just still try to process it as something inside a rar and fail to load the picture. What I need is something to skip the first 6 characters in a path.
not possible i'm afraid.
