Hi !

I wondered whether it was possible or not, and if yes, how, to have a link in a menu which loads 2 nodes, in 2 different areas of the page (pages or modules, fro ex.).

Let me explain : in the website I'm trying to develop, there's a "content" area, and a "content top" area. When you click on a menu link, it loads a module, for ex. FAQ or news in the "content" area.

Now I would like to have an image loaded in the "content top" area at the same time. I really would like to avoid having code like :

$block['content_top']="<img blabla />";

in every module code because I want the final user to be able to change the image, without changing the module code. The best would be to have the image in a normal content page, so the users can change it, using TinyMCE for ex.

Therefore, when you click on a menu item, let's say "FAQ", you would have the "FAQ" module loaded in content, and let's say, the "FAQ header" page loaded in the top.

Hope this is clear (not to sure about that :-) ).
If there's a Drupal guru around who knows the answer, that would be awesome.

cheers,

Denis

Is my question stupid, or nobody knows ? :-(

You're probably looking for a view or a panel. That way you can have your menu item point to this view or panel page which then displays any node you'd like.

While not available for Drupal 6 you might want to check out the Logo Tool module which I think would serve your purpose. (You could try contacting the maintainer to see if they have plans for Drupal 6 version)
