I haven't found a tweak for this for 6.10, and didn't want to mess anything up... How can I make the Next, Up, and Previous links appear at the top of each Book page as well as the bottom?

Thanks!

This has been asked several times, and after trying several approaches, I solved it as follows. I created a new block that is displayed in my theme's content_top region. The block executes this php code:

if (arg(0) == 'node' && is_numeric(arg(1))) {
    $node = node_load(arg(1));
}
  return theme('book_navigation', $node->book);

There is one minor problem with this, though: preprocess_book_navigation() adds link elements into the HTML header which indicate document relationships (prev, next, etc); since this function is now called twice, there are duplicate link elements. Too minor an issue for me to worry about right now...

Was going to add the block; but has the "PHP code" input format gone away in 6.12? I can't seem to get that option to display, although my 6.10 site has it.

I didn't have the PHP filter module enabled...will try again...

Got it to work in the header...which of course didn't look so good; but I can see how it might be tweaked in e.g., the content_top area. FYI, also noticed (new to 6.12?) a "Book Navigation" item in the Blocks list...!
