Featued Items on home page

Dear Tech friends,

I've installed image slider module. I would like to make the image slider content display as a custom view.

Slider shows only one item at a time and rotating the items. I'm trying to get the block content individually to hide the title, poster, date etc and only image need to show with link to node.

It seems I've to write an override for

node_view(node_load($node->nid), 1)

Complete functions for slider is as follows:

function outbody_of_block($content_type,$delta)
{
 $output_body = '';
    $sql  = " SELECT n.nid, teaser FROM {node} n INNER JOIN {node_revisions} r ON n.nid=r.nid "." WHERE n.status=1 AND n.type='".$content_type."' ORDER BY n.changed DESC LIMIT 5";
    $results     = db_query($sql);

    $output_body .= '<div id="slider'.$delta.'" class="sliderwrapper">'."\n";
    while ($data = db_fetch_object($results)) {
      $slider_nid = $data->nid;
      $output_body .= '<div class="contentdiv">'."\n";
      $output_body .= "<a href='".$base_url."/node/".$slider_nid."'>". node_view(node_load($data->nid), 1) ."</a>";
      if ($slider_nid == 1) {
        $output_body .= '<p></p><a href="javascript:featuredcontentslider.jumpTo(\'slider1\', 3)">';
      }
      $output_body .= '</div>';
    }
    $output_body .= '</div>';
    $output_body .= '<div id="paginate-slider'.$delta.'" class="pagination">'."\n";
    $output_body .= '</div>';

    $output_body .= '<script type="text/javascript">';

    $output_body .= 'featuredcontentslider.init({'."\n";
    $output_body .= 'id: "slider'.$delta.'",//id of main slider DIV'."\n";
    $output_body .= 'contentsource: ["inline", ""],  //Valid values: ["inline", ""] or ["ajax", "path_to_file"]'."\n";
    $output_body .= 'toc: "#increment",  //Valid values: "#increment", "markup", ["label1", "label2", etc]'."\n";
    $output_body .= 'nextprev: ["Previous", "Next"],  //labels for "prev" and "next" links. Set to "" to hide.'."\n";
    $output_body .= 'revealtype: "click", //Behavior of pagination links to reveal the slides: "click" or "mouseover"'."\n";
    $output_body .= 'enablefade: [true, 0.2],  //[true/false, fadedegree]'."\n";
    $output_body .= 'autorotate: [true, 3000],  //[true/false, pausetime]'."\n";
    $output_body .= 'onChange: function(previndex, curindex){  //event handler fired whenever script changes slide'."\n";
    $output_body .= '//previndex holds index of last slide viewed b4 current (1=1st slide, 2nd=2nd etc)'."\n";
    $output_body .= '//curindex holds index of currently shown slide (1=1st slide, 2nd=2nd etc)'."\n";
    $output_body .= '}';
    $output_body .= '})';

    $output_body .= '</script>';
     return  $output_body;

    //$output_body .= '</div>';
}

function content_slider_page_list($i) {
  $content_slider_item = variable_get("content_slider_item", 10);

  $dse_news_total = db_query(" SELECT count(*) AS total FROM {node} n WHERE n.type='slider".$i."' AND n.status=1");
  $row_news       = db_fetch_object($dse_news_total);
  $news_total     = $row_news->total;
  $sql_counts     = "SELECT $news_total";

  $sql = " SELECT n.nid, n.title, r.teaser FROM {node} n INNER JOIN {node_revisions} r ON r.nid = n.nid WHERE n.type = 'slider$i' AND n.status=1 ORDER BY n.created DESC";
  $sql = db_rewrite_sql($sql);

  $results = pager_query($sql, $content_slider_item, 0, $sql_counts);

  $output = "<div id='content_slider$i'>";

  while ($node = db_fetch_object($results)) {
    $output .= node_view(node_load($node->nid), 1);
	 $output .= $content;
  }

  $output .= theme('pager', NULL, $content_slider_item, 0);
  $output .= '</div>';

  return $output;
}

Any suggestion anticipated.

Richard
