Drupal: Reuse the node edit form in a page

If you ever need to duplicate the functionality of the path of "/node/%node/edit", you can simply copy the following to and edit so it matches what you need.

In your menu hook, add this menu item:

view sourceprint?

1.$items['something/edit/%node'] = array(   

2.  'page callback' => 'something_edit_page',    

3.  'page arguments' => array(2),    

4.  'type' => MENU_CALLBACK,    

5.  'access callback' => 'node_access',    

6.  'access arguments' => array('update', 1),    

7.);

And then create the corresponding callback function to handle the request:

view sourceprint?

1.function something_edit_page($node) {   

2.  require_once(drupal_get_path('module', 'node') . '/node.pages.inc');    

3.  return node_page_edit($node);    

4.}

So when you visit "/something/edit/%node", it will display the same things as it would on the normal edit node page (except the "View" and "Edit" tabs).
