Including a node on a static html/php page?

Is there a way through PHP code or HTML to include a node or path (taxonomy/term/2) in an HTML/PHP page? I would like to create a page with some static information but also have the contents updated dynamically.

I know 'include()' works with the entire URL but that includes the whole page. I just want the node, not the header and blocks and all. Can you get 'include()' to work without the php extension?

User administration hierarchy

Using 4.6.3. I've seen a couple other related posts about managing user roles and a granular control system, but neither seems to address my issue here.

Watchlist capability instead of emailing users. Homepage with watched forums, blogs, etc.

I need to have the capability to watch a certain forum and be able to have a page as my homepage that reports all the comments and stuff, just like the normal homepage, but filtered by my forums. it would be nice to also have the new comments and recent posts, etc. filtered by this "my watchlist" list. anything like that available? i have tried subscription and subscriptions, but i don't have it set how i want yet. any ideas?

How Can I Use Taxonomy Terms as Search Keys

I have a site that uses taxonomy terms as metadata for nodes. For example, a Country vocabulary would be used to specify the country of origin for a node. I want to be able to do a search for, say, Canada, and return all nodes where the Country=Canada. It appears that this feature does not yet exist. Am I wrong? How do I enable it?

If it doesn't exist, I am willing to build (and contribute) a module or patch to provide the feature.

MacJournal on Drupal?

Would MacJournal work with Drupal 4.6?

It works with LiveJournal, Blogger, Movable Type, WordPress, ATOM and .Mac. Would any of these format work with the BlogAPI.module?

File Upload for Forms

Hello, we are using Drupal to setup several websites here at school. So far so good. Installed and running with no problems.

I am having a problem with the webform module. Maybe it's not a problem with it, but I have being forced to deal with an extreme limitation.

Basically I have created a bunch of webforms that faculty will use to submit/modify their biographical data.

This also includes pictures or other files.

There is no way to allow a user to upload a file through the webform.

Not only that, but I haven't seen any plugin that will allow for this simple thing. We don't want to send them to a whole different module such as an image module for one simple task. And it wouldn't make sense sending them to two different places to update their biographical information anyways.

Can someone help me to understand what I need to do? Do I have to create a custom module and forgo using the webforms at all? I have like 15 forms to create and would hate having to do a custom module for each form.

Is there a way to include file upload functionality into the exsisting web forms? Is there a patch out there for this that I am unaware of?

I can't be the first person who has wanted file upload capability through the webform module can I? I have researced as much as I could in the support areas of Drupal and haven't found the answer I need. or any answer at all related to this. Granted I only went like 20 pages deep in the search, but still.
