Passing an Argument from the URL to view block

I am not sure if this is an appropriate discussion topic to post here. If not, my apologies. I saw how others had posted views arguments solutions here and thought if I could get this resolved, it would make a nice addition to the dojo.

I just created a forum help request on D.O at http://drupal.org/node/544884 and was wondering if anyone was familiar with the challenge of passing a URL argument to a view block.

I look forward to any advice you can share.

Thanks

This has been resolved. See http://drupal.org/node/544884 for resolution.

I am going to write this up and share, just not right now. Gotta get back on schedule. The key points are:

  1. Remember to distinguish between the URL and the alias URL
  2. Remember to set views argument to the type of variable you are passing (I had tax:term versus tax:ID set for the argument - dah)
