book navigation

[John Callahan]

I am using the core book module and have exactly one book.  I would like
to show a block containing the book navigation (or table of contents)
open to the current page/node I'm on.   The problem is that the default
Book navigation block behaves like I'd want but  shows the book name as
the first entry and first level chapters under that (and collapsed if
using DHTML Menu).  I would much rather have the first level chapters as
the primary entries and I'll use the book title as the block title.

I've used this piece of code as a block; it does the exact same thing as
the default book navigation block.

<?php
$book_top_page=168;
$tree = menu_tree_all_data(book_menu_name($book_top_page));
print menu_tree_output($tree);
?>


The following code below shows exactly what I need but does NOT open to
the current page. (code snippet found on d.o)

Are there any modules or code snippets that can do this?  Any
suggestions how I can modify the code below to open the item/page based
on the current node?  (such as adding active-trail class where
necessary)   Thanks.

<?php
$book_top_page = 168;
$levels_deep = 3;
$emulate_book_block = true;

if (!function_exists('book_struct_recurse')){
function book_struct_recurse($nid, $levels_deep, $children,
$current_lineage = array(), $emulate_book_block = true) {
$struct = '';
if ($children[$nid] && ($levels_deep > 0 || ($emulate_book_block &&
in_array($nid, $current_lineage)))) {
$struct = '<ul>';
      foreach ($children[$nid] as $key => $node) {
      if ($tree = book_struct_recurse($node->nid, $levels_deep - 1,
$children, $current_lineage, $emulate_book_block)) {
      $struct .= '<li>';
      $struct .= l($node->title, 'node/'. $node->nid);
      $struct .= $tree;

      }
      }
      }
      $struct .= '</ul>';
return $struct;
}
}
}

$current_lineage = array();

while ($node = db_fetch_object($result)) {

$children[$node->parent] = array();
}
array_push($children[$node->parent], $node);

/*  This function is broken, and for my purposes, not needed **********

  $current_lineage[] = arg(1);

Figures.  You work on a problem for most of the afternoon with no
success, send a request for help to thousands of people on the support
list, then you solve your own problem 20 minutes later!

http://drupal.org/project/menu_block does the trick.
