im desperately trying to get node reference to work with views but am having a very frustrating problem.
i have a content type called 'item_page', which uses taxonomy to determine what section in the site it should be linked to (ie news, events, etc)
i then have another content type, called 'news_frontpage', which contains a nodereference field for specifically the news item_page taxonomy type. i have achieved this by making a simple view, called 'news_view', which has 2 filters, node type: item_page, and taxonomy term: news.
i have then applied 'news_view' to the 'news_frontpage' nodereference field by choosing it in 'Advanced - Nodes that can be referenced (View)'.
however when i go to create a 'news_frontpage' the nodereference dropdowns are populated with the correct amount of nodes but with blank spaces instead of the news item_page titles. (see attached image)
the most confusing part of this is that it works perfectly fine on my local testing server, but when i installed the EXACT same site and database to my online server it doesnt work!!! could this mean its actually a mysql or phpmyadmin problem?
please help as this is utterly perplexing!

Anonymous (not verified) CreditAttribution: Anonymous commentedI have a very similar problem here. There are only two differences: I'm using a select list instead of a drop down box and I'm using CCK 6.x-2.5.
I did not make any changes to my database, but I moved the files on the server into a different directory.
The view itself displays all titles correctly, as well as the node reference module, when not using the 'Advanced' option.
