block_list

Versions
4.6: block_list($region, $regions = array('left' => 0, 'right' => 1, 'all' => '0, 1'))
4.7 – 7: block_list($region)

Return all blocks in the specied region for the current user. You may
- use this function to implement variable block regions. The default
- regions are 'left', 'right' and 'all', where 'all' means both left and
- right.
* *

Parameters

$region

This is a string which describes in a human readable form which region
you need.

@param $regions
This is an optional array and contains map(s) from the string $region to
the numerical region value(s) in the blocks table. See default value for
examples.

@return
An array of block objects, indexed with module_delta.
If you are displaying your blocks in one or two sidebars, you may check
whether this array is empty to see how many columns are going to be
displayed.

@todo
Add a proper primary key (bid) to the blocks table so we don't have
to mess around with this module_delta construct.
Currently, the blocks table has no primary key defined!
