In this article I will explain how to bypass the table restriction that was made for CONTENT objects. This restriction is made for security reasons, however I wonder how useful it is since it's so easy to bypass.

If you're not aware of the capabilities of TypoScript, you would start looking in the repository for something usable. I immedeatly remember using something simular for getting a content element from a different page, and displaying it. Combining this with a COA_INT, to prevent caching of the element, I was able to do this in under 5 minutes with only 15 lines of TypoScript code (including marker assignment).
