"Webform form body" contains entire node object instead of just the form

Well, poo. The views option worked just great, except that the "Webform form body" is apparently the entire node body complete with the node title and fields, in addition to the webform itself. Why is that? Is there not a field accessible via views that is JUST the webform form?

I'll probably go ahead and do it this way, and hide the duplicate content via CSS, because that still seems less janky to me than hardcoding in PHP to a custom pane.

Is there something I'm missing? Is there a way just to load the form data and not the rest of the node?

Oh, and attached is the view I created that works (in a sense) in case anyone else wants to do it this way.

As this is on Drupal 6 this is Views 2, obviously. Note the node validation checks (about half-way through) various node types, which probably are different (likely many fewer) on your system.

That's a relief! It did seem odd that that would be intentional.

Do you need more information to look into this? Happy to test patches and whatnot.

Here's a screenshot. This was done on a fresh Drupal 6 install, with only webform and views installed.

This is a view displaying the node title, the node body, and then "webform form body" which you can see is the complete node object. This is displaying the built-in webform content type, but for the record, it does the same thing if you allow other content types such as pages to be webform-enabled.

Let me know if there's anything else I can do to assist. I'm changing the issue title for the purpose of addressing this bug.

Looking at webform_handler_field_form_body.inc inside webform's views folder, indeed it does look like it's grabbing the fully rendered node object (lines 28-39):

function render($values) {
    $node = node_load($values->{$this->aliases['nid']});

    if (node_access('view', $node)) {
      $form_body = node_view($node, FALSE, FALSE);
    }
    else {
      return;
    }

    return $form_body;
  }

node_load gets the node from the NID, and node_view renders the node, with teaser and page-view both set to false. "Webform form body" is thus set to the fully rendered node object.

Figuring out how to render only part of the node object is definitely outside of my grasp, but that file definitely seems to be where the issue is.

Cool. I tried a few things based on that info but none of them seemed to work, but I'm not very knowledgeable in this area.

Substituting webform_node_view() for node_view in that file resulted in no content being returned (no webform content and no node content) but maybe it requires other changes to work. Substituting $node->content['webform'] for $node in node_view returns an empty node (wrapping divs, but no node content) but I probably just don't understand how to properly call that. Like I said...not my strong suit.

Will keep checking back and test any patches on this.
