Hey Jeff, I'm knee deep and a little lost on what you're trying to do, but phpEd plays really well on Windows. Plus, you can just place a debugBreak(); where ever you want the code to start stepping. Then you can walk through it. -Don- On 5/2/2011 8:34 PM, jeff@ayendesigns.com wrote:

A D6 site using panels. A view producing a block. The panel page loads the block and overrides its path (well...technically not, but that's what the setting says) to be domain.com/music

Have a module that implements pre-process, as well as registering a callback. The path in the callback is /music-xml. The pre-process implementation checks for arg(0) containing music-xml. The module registers its templates directory, which contains a template for page-music-xml.tpl.php. When invoking /music, the result is the callback or music-xml fires, arg(0) contains music-xml, and the template fires. The browser path, meanwhile, still says /music

The problem is that I need to change the content type used in the view from music to something else, at which point it all breaks...arg(0) shows up just as music then, not music-xml.

I've grepped the code, exported and grepped the db, clicked all the clickables (I think) in panels, check path aliases, strongarm ... I can't figure out how it's being done.

Can you get rid of the '-' in music-xml? I think it might be interfering, just a guess.

The 'override path' really means to change the "view path" so that when you click on something in the view (such as an exposed filter or a more link) it goes to the path you specify. It doesn't change anything in arg(0) or $_GET['q'].

Have a module that implements pre-process, as well as registering a callback. The path in the callback is /music-xml. The pre-process implementation checks for arg(0) containing music-xml.

I can't either. The thing to check is aliases, since aliases are the biggest source of confusion about path. But if it's aliases I can't see how changing the view would affect it in the slightest. arg(0) looks directly in $_GET['q'] -- I can't imagine anything that's actually going to change $_GET['q'] to look like music-xml when the path is in fact music. So there's got to be something custom, somewhere, that's doing it.
