Intro text with Image only on List view of blog?

Here is my dilemma.


I would like to display the image that the category listing uses.

"Extract from Main Text" ... BUT... I don't want the image to reappear as the actual image reference in the intro text area.

Can that be done?

So
you want to display the introtext
1. uncut
2. and without stripping HTML

but you only want to strip images out of it?

Yes.

I want to display the intro text. I don't want "read more."

I want to use the category's template blog list display to extract an image from the article text. However, the image will be in the intro text already:

Title of Article

Quick intro description
<img reference>
============== read more
Full Description
<video>


1) When going into the article do not show intro text. This works.

But this is how I want to show up as a listing:

Next the Blog listing:

Title of Article 1
<img reference from cat blog template> Short Intro description
categories:a,b,c tags: t1,t2

...

Title of Article X
<img reference from cat blog template> Short Intro description
categories:a,b,c tags: t2,t3

Disable strip and cut in blog template parameters
(duplicate blog template before modifying)
and in file category_items.php of the duplicated blog template:

Replace:
echo $items[$i]->fields->display;
with
$descr_noimg = preg_replace("/<img[^>]+\>/i", " ", $items[$i]->fields->display);
echo $descr_noimg;

For more information about the replacement google it ...

Regards

That worked and now I get all my images in.

that solved ?
