Mahna Mahna (Do doo be-do-do)

The taxonomy module automatically generates a page for each taxonomy term that lists all the nodes tagged with that term. The URLs of these pages are in the format of http://example.com/taxonomy/term/.

By default, this page only shows the term name as the title and the teaser view of each node.

Passing an argument to a view is straightforward if the view is a page or if it is a displaying as a view field. If the view is a page, you can pass arguments through the URL. If the view is displaying as a view field, the view field module has an argument field. However, it is very difficult to pass an argument to a block view.

Initially, I wanted to use views to generate the Work Order reports Ken requested. It seemed straight forward. I would use the date format vs. unix timestamps combined with the date browser. Ken would be able to move forward and back through months and years. This worked - but Ken wanted a report similar to the Excel spreadsheet he had Bob already creating.
