Hello,

I have a requirement with a new site where I may have multiple nodes associated with a node of a different type. For example, I may have a piece of art (art work content type) which has a couple of photos (custom_image type).

This is not a problem when the photos already exist when a piece of art work is being added, because I can use the node reference cck field to list the photos (based on user ID, or term, etc...).

The desired behavior is to add a new piece of art work, and while going so, have a button available which will add the image(s).

One thought I had was to make a panel where one pane adds the art work, and another "related" pane would allow images to be created or referenced.
To the user, it's all in one place, easy to navigate, but in reality there is 2 things going on.

Anyway, I'm looking for hints, links to how-to's, tutorials, or really any info on how I might approach this.

The site is new, only populated with testing nodes (currently running drupal 6.9 core), so any changes/additions needed can be made.

Let me know if further clarification is needed in order to provide guidance.

Cheers,

Thanks so much for the reply.

This module does work for me, however the popups-6.x-1.2-alpha1 fails when I attach an image file. I found a couple of similar issues, and it seems to be related to the core file attach.

I switched to popups-6.x-2.x-dev, which is working great.

Cheers,
