Does anyone know a trick (or something I shouldve read, but did not read) about how to get acces to $node objects in hook_filter?
My filters do not alter anything in that object, but the filters /do/ need some parameters in that object.
As far as I can see, _filter only receives a 'stupid' text-chunk, but I cannot beleive that we designed it that stupid and never pass more information to he filters. Its just that I cannot find the wheres, hows and whens.
I tried to get a patch in, which would pass the node along. But filters are not only used for node text. They are used for the site mission, node add page help texts and such. The answer to this question then was that I should use nodeapi view to do node based filtering. This is what I do. Gabor
