[support] Block visibility quandry

[Shai Gluskin]

Hi Neil,

I don't know if the UI for the block module settings will allow regular
expressions. I doubt it, but give it a try and report back.

However, what will surely work is putting in your own php. Have you noticed
that radio for adding PHP to return "TRUE" to make block visible? That's
your answer.

Here's a code snippet that should get you started:
http://drupal.org/node/64135#page-visibility

Here is one that is a little more sophisticated which was designed for the
Google Analytics module... when to include the tracking code on a page --
totally analogous to block visibility:
http://drupal.org/node/261997

Good luck. And please add your snippet to the handbook page.
