function book_export

book_export($type, $nid)

Menu callback; Generates representations of a book page and its children.

The function delegates the generation of output to helper functions. The function name is derived by prepending 'book_export_' to the given output type. So, e.g., a type of 'html' results in a call to the function book_export_html().

Parameters

$type: A string encoding the type of output requested. The following types are currently supported in book module:

• html: Printer-friendly HTML.

Other types may be supported in contributed modules.

$nid: An integer representing the node id (nid) of the node to export

Return value

A string representing the node and its children in the book hierarchy in a format determined by the $type parameter.
