views_embed_view()


  Embed a view using a PHP snippet.
  
  This function is meant to be called from PHP snippets, should one wish
  to embed a view in a node or something. It's meant to provide the
  simplest solution and doesn't really offer a lot of options, but
  breaking the function apart is pretty easy, and this provides a
  worthwhile guide to doing so.
