Today I tried to embed the HTML from a View in a page layout following this guide. Apparently, in Drupal 6 the views_build_view function has been replaced by views_embed_view. Here's a code snippet that lets you to embed a view:

<?php
$viewName
= 'MYVIEWNAME';
print
views_embed_view($viewName);
?>

The views_embed_view has 2 default arguments. The second argument allows you to enter the display_id of the view (example: default, page, block, etc). Any additional argument you specify will be passed to the views argument handler. For instance, if you wanted to embed the block view and pass it a list of nodeIDs as an argument...

<?php
$viewName
= 'MYVIEWNAME';
$display_id = 'block';
$myNodes = array(1, 2, 3);
print
views_embed_view($viewName, $display_id, $myNodes);
?>
