Inline Block Within a Block?

Permalink
Is it possible to have an "inline" block that can be inserted by the user into the content of another block? For instance, let's say I've created a block that generates a special hyperlink "on the fly" based upon some data. I'd like the user to be able to insert that "block" (an anchor tag really) anywhere within the content of a page, such as via the rich editor or the HTML block.

Is it possible? Can anyone point me to some info or sample code?

Thanks,

no, that's not possible unfortunately. are you just wanting to split up the page into a more complete layout or something? (in that case check out the area splitter block in the marketplace)

Thanks for the reply, Tony. Perhaps I'm going about it the wrong way. I mean, my block is working fine, but having a hyperlink just sitting there by itself in a block isn't flexible enough for my needs. Maybe I should be looking at extending the content block. Hmm...
