displaying all attachments

    Which WordPress function displays or returns all post IDs of all media attachments within a certain blog? Or if there isn’t one, can anyone help me find a combination of functions which would do these? Ideally I want to retrieve all media attachments for a specific blog, so I’d want my argument/parameter to be the blog id and the return to be an array/object of the details of the attachment or at least the attachment/post id.

    Any piece of advice would be highly appreciated, thanks!

    Regarding the return, I meant an array of arrays/objects or attachment/post ids

    I seemed to have found it, it returns an array of attachment objects. Here it is for anyone whoever needs it as well:

    Here is the function I created:

    global $wpdb;
		if(!is_numeric($blog_id)) {
			$blog_id = web_get_blog_id($blog_id);
		}
		$wpdb->set_blog_id($blog_id, 1);

		$args = array(
			'post_type' => 'attachment',
			'post_mime_tyupe' => 'image'
		);

		if( !$attachments = get_children($args) ) {
			return false;
		} else {
			return $attachments;
		}

    Thanks for sharing – I’ve tried your function. What is the function web_get_blog_id()? WordPress complains it doesn’t exist.
