Is there a function to get the caption for an image in wordpress

Question

I\'m trying to get the captions from images in Wordpress but I can\'t find an easy function to grab this bit of information.

Anyone know a way to get this?

Answer 1

Turns out captions are stored as post excerpts. So,

post_excerpt; ?>

will print out the caption if you are on the attachment image page (image.php in your theme) and inside the Loop.
