[Typo3-dev] Is it possible to display content elements referenced by uid in frontend plugin php code?

[Yevgen Lirnyk]

Hi,

I have following problem:

Customer wants to diplay some content elements in two columns. I.e page 
may include simple text elements, images and so on, and among these 
could be larger chunks of text, being split into two columns.

My first idea was to look into repository of existing extensions. I have 
found couple extensions (like fdfx_2cols), but these are not completely 
suit my needs.

Ok, I tried to make my own extension. Idea was to create content 
elements for left & right columns separately and put it into "invisible" 
columns on the same page, then reference these elements in two m:m 
database relations fields. Everything was fine till doing rendering in 
front end... When php script in pi being called I have uids of all 
referenced content elements, but I have no idea what to do further.

I have spent almost two days digging documentation, but still have no 
clue how to read content from database and render it into page...
Is it feasible at all ?
