Next / Previous functionality [#1413834]

Hi,

I understand this is not a references issue, which is why I flagged it "Misc". However, I was hoping to find some guidance here.

I am using node references to bind several chapters into a book. I do this by creating a node reference field on the book node-type and then listing the chapters in the order I desire. The question is how to generate a "previous" and "next" link when viewing a chapter-node. Is there an easy solution to this? Maybe with views? Or will I have to do an SQL query by hand to solve this?

Please note that with "book node-type" I do not refer to the book module but rather a custom node type I created through the interface.

Thanks,

Felix

Why do you not just use the core "book" module, which does just that ? books contain pages, which you can organize in chapters: just create a specific node type for chapter pages if you do not want them to be materialized and have these display as a redirect to the first child page: no need for more.
