Using the XML field it is possible to place related objects into the field using the <object id='xx' /> tag, and when you display the contents the object tag is automatically processed and replaced according to the embed.tpl Is it possible to us the object tag with a PLAIN TEXT field and to still have eZ translate the <object id='xx' /> to the correct output? I need this functionality as I need to display an item mid text so looping through the nodes related objects will not work. And no I cannot use an XML field fullstop. Any ideas?? PS. Any solutions need to be done without hacking the ez code.
