How to show a module with a content item in full view?

I want to show a module only when my content item is in full view (I don't want it to show up in the blog style page). How to do this?

Sorry but my english is not very well. You do this in Mambo administartion page: Modules->site modules - propeties of module (you want show only when content item is in full view) and in right table select position of menu you want see the module (ex: startpage).

Thanks for you reply, but I already tried this. With the site module options you can choose the page(s) where a module shows up. When this page is a blog, the module shows up on the blog page (with "read on" links), and on the full view pages (the pages where you go when you hit a "read on" link).

But, what I like to do is this: I want to show a module only on this full view page (and not on the blog page with "read on" links). Can't figure out how to do this...

Try this: administration->menu->mainmenu - and edit menu item Blog. In detalist you have option: "section". In this options you have choose not "All sections" but only that where not exist your content's you want see only on start page. You must add new section of content and not choose this in Blog parameters. OK ???

This is the workaround I found: I made a hidden menu, with a blogstyle menu item, showing only the section/category of my article (I created a special section/category for this article).

Now I can choose this hidden menu in the site module manager. When you click the "read on" link in the blog, the module shows up with the article in full view.
