Re: [support] using generated url as argument in a view

If I could parse the url, I could extract the "name-of-the-artist" and convert it to a nid, for example.

I think that you can. Try this (i'm have not a Drupal site in my hand now)

Edit your view and "add arguments", chouse Node: nid, chouse "Provide default argument", chouse "PHP Code" (in "Provide default argument options" fieldset). Now if your url is "

/artists/name-of-the-artist/biography" than:

arg(0): artists arg(1): name-of-the-artist arg(2): biografy (and so on...)

Now with your PHP code retrive nid from "name-of-the-artist" arg(1) and put "return $nid" (where $nid is your node nid variable). Example

[CODE] $nid = function_that_retrieve_nid(arg(1)); return $nid; [/CODE]

Try this.
