View at taxonomy/term/% to display descendant taxonomy terms as well as nodes tagged
Hi, My requirement is that given a hierarchy like: Furniture Chairs Desk Chairs Dining Chairs Tables etc. If I go to taxonomy/term/74 (where 74 is term ID for Chairs) then I want to see a list of nodes tagged with Chairs and show links to "Desk Chairs" and "Dining Chairs", preferably with their taxonomy image and their description. The first bit of this is easily solved in views using either the default taxonomy replacement view or by creating a clone of it, but not sure of the most "Drupalish" way to do the second. I thought I might be able to do it with an attachment in the view and grouping on term but I don't think this will work for me. Other ideas are either change the template manually, so at least the nodes are handled by views (what I'm leaning towards atm) or to have another totally different view that is a term view, rather than a node view, as a block and setting the block up to get the arguments from the URL. Does anyone have a better idea or is this the way to go? Ta, Malks.

Actually looking at it a bit more, I don't think that taxonomy_list will do what I want as I need the block to have some sense of the context. Seems like overkill for panels (especially as there doesn't seem an easy way to get a view of taxonomy terms to show child terms, which might have ameliorated this) so will just roll my own code.

My bad, forgot to mention D6. Have just found one of your modules Nancy (http://drupal.org/project/taxonomy_list) that will do what I want I think without writing code.
