Preface:
Create a views2 block that displays all fields of nodes of specific type dynamically for that specific taxonomy.

Content Type: Review
Field: field_photo
Taxonomy: Term ID: Dynamic depending on term

In Laymen's Terms
Couldn't get this to work using the taxonomy term id as the argument. No matter what taxonomy page I navigate to it displays all photos, no matter whether they are tagged with that term or not. If I write a review tagged as "bob's restaurant" on the bob's restaurant page I'd only want to see those photos, if I navigate to "Diane's Diner", than only those photos. ...you get the point.

Should be pretty straight-forward and have worked with arguments before, but seemed to have went brain-dead on this one. Additionally, tried to use the default taxonomy_terms view as a model to achieve this, but it does not allow you to select which fields to display.

Thanks,

When using a block view with arguments you must also specify a default argument-- blocks don't understand arguments without this.

Thanks, that did it. As soon as I set "Action to take if argument is not present:" provide default argument as

return arg(2);

It worked fine. Thanks again.
