I have been banging my head on the ground trying to figure this out and it was something completely simple and was a simple miss read of the directions. Make sure that you DO NOT have brackets surrounding your code. It will cause it to not work! Thanks again! Great post.

After incorporating your suggestions, I set the block view to show at: exhibitors/exhibit-list exhibitors/exhibit-list/* Under URL aliases, I created 26 aliases (which may grow if we get exhibitors that start with numbers), like this: node/XX exhibitors/exhibit-list/c That works for now, but if there's a better solution, let me know. :) I made a temporary solution that works for what I need but hurts a little.

I have a node located at exhibitors/exhibit-list that has some pdf attachments, copy, etc. (so I can't create a page view here as non-webby people maintain the content) I also have a block view assigned to the same page/path that shows a list of exhibitors, all of them to start. Now, if I enter a URL like: exhibitors/exhibit-list/b I get a page not found, because I'm guessing the path is different now. With some minor adjustments to the code I have everything working fine in the views preview. Arguments are being understood there thanks to your help! Any thoughts on what I might be missing? Do I need to set up something special in pathauto? Thanks for your advise in advance! :D I’m almost ready to post an ‘AWESOME!’ comment, but am not quite there just yet.

Just wanted to add some notes. If pathauto is not there try simple one : $path = explode('/', $_GET['q']); return $path[1]; and also for the folks : when you copy & paste please look for the quotes, they might be rendered in differant way for i18n. Rest is fine work! I checked it on Drupal 6 & basic view. Hey, Great man, you helped me out!!!

Hasn't anybody else hit this problem? Right now I just have the block display on every page, so even on the 404 page I see that it's accepting the arguments. How should I implement this method without getting 404 pages?
