I am not much of a SQL person, I can create a database, optimize it, drop and ad tables. But my boss would like me to spit out a list of all the images on our site and the corresponding urls. I am sure this can be done with a query string but I have no idea how.
What kind of data would you be searching? Is there an actual DB table where you store the images or the image names/directories, or what?

I am searching for all the images within a given section "products" and their URLs to the images in the folder on the ftp. I just need a list. They are in one large database that is controlled by MODX. I have almost all the pages under a products folder, in modx.
I'm not sure there's a way to do it purely in SQL. I might create a PHP script to query the appropriate DB column(s) I don't know MODX, so don't know which table(s)/column(s) have the data), then use PHP's preg_match_all() function to locate the image info.
