preview vs. views_embed_view

By rt on 9 Mar 2010 at 15:18 UTC

what i do when no node are ready for my view :)

first example to include any response output from a view :


  $view = views_get_view('archive');
 
  /* access
  if (!$view || !$view->access($display_id)) {
    return;
  }
  */

  if (!empty($view)) {
  	$puffer .= '<h2> Name of View : ' . $view->name . '</h2><hr>';
 	// display_id = default;
	$puffer .= $view->preview($display_id, $args);
  }
  
  return $puffer;

is there another possibility for a implementation ???
