Hi,
This is probably obvious for everyone.....
How can I display a CCK field from the content type 'uprofile' for a specific user?

In the file node-uprofile.tpl.php I can display the CCK filed from 'uprofile': 'field_full_name' with this code:
$node->content['field_full_name']['#value']
That is because we are at the node which contain the info of a specific user.

But how can I get the full name of a specific user anywhere else on the site? For example if I want to display the full name of user with uid=10. Then I want to get the 'field_full_name' that user uid=10 has saved in the content type 'uprofile'.

Thanks!
Tim

So, to display the first name of a buddy in a user's buddylist, I tried putting:

<?php
$account = node_load(array('type'=>'uprofile', 'uid'=>$object->uid));
$firstname = $account->field_first_name[0]['value'];
?>

at the bottom of the "views-list-buddylist_of_uid.tpl.php" file.
this didn't work unfortunately
where am i going wrong?
