Call Module direct from Theme without Block?

Hi,
is there a possibility to call a module directly from the theme and not from a block?

I'd like to create a theme, where some modules are static on every page and are not within the left/right block area..

for example the module xlanguage should display its flags below the page along with copyright notes etc..

thanks for helping out,
naabster

Hi, I have the same requirement.

I'd like to put the language selection flag not in a block, but in the header or the foot on the theme.

I'm not a php programmer but i can see the following sentences in the xlanguage/blocks/xlanguage_blocks.php file
$list .= "?".$QUERY_STRING_new.XLANGUAGE_LANG_TAG."=".$lang['name']."">";
$list .= "/modules/xlanguage/images/".$lang['image']."" alt="".$lang['desc'].""
            style="MozOpacity: .8;opacity: .8;filter:Alpha(opacity=80);"/>";
$list .= "";

There is any way to write in html this code in order to put in the theme?

I've been testing diferent ways and no success. I think the problem is comming on how to manage the PHPSESSIONID on html

thanks in advance

I solved this by playing tricks with the columns & weights. I have a theme that is 2-column, so I placed blocks I wanted in non-standard locations in the right-most column and then assigned weights to the particular blocks that went in certain places. For example, I have a search block up in the header. To place this block I put the search block in the right column and assign it a weight of 1. Then in my theme I have:

<{foreach item=block from=$xoops_rblocks}>
   <{if $block.weight == 1}>
      <div id="search"><{$block.content}>div>
   <{/if}>
<{/foreach}>


Note if you have a lot of blocks on the right this will be very slow looping through them all!
