Marko Žmak	Thursday 28 January 2010 4:11:54 am I have an object (object A) embeded in OE field of another object (object B), and I have a template override for this embeded object A. How can I detect in this template what is the the object_id of the object B? -- Nothing is impossible. Not if you can imagine it! Hubert Farnsworth
