Hack Request...

Anybody have any ideas on how I could get a right block to display for a specific static page, much the same way you could for a specific topic?

I've done a bit of PHP coding in the past, so I'm not looking for a turnkey solution - just a bit of brainstorming that may get me on the right track. The site this will be used on is a relatively static site, so I'm not opposed to hard coding the staticpage id's somewhere, either. Smile

TIA!

Use a phpblock and have the block code check the current URL. If it is staticpage/index.php?id=xxx where xxx is the staticpage in question, display the content. Otherwise return an empty string. Empty blocks do not display.
