 * I could not find anywhere on support/codex:
    Is there a way from the single post
   template to know wich image(s) are attached to the post ?
 * I saw on the attachment subpost, it refers to ‘$post->parent_post’ , but from
   the post, could not find any reference to the attachments…
 * any ideas ?

 * That solution implies I create a custom field for it (no prob if there’s no other
   way), but since you can attach an image/video/whatever to the post with the inline
   upload tool, why would I use another way ?

 * So warn me whenever you get the answer. I spent a couple of hours to find an 
   elegant solution to this problem. There’s also the alternative to grab the image
   tag from the DOM. That’s not elegant either.
