Answer 1

You can have multiple terms when you change to

$node = node_load(arg(1));
if ($node) {
    $ret = array();
    foreach ($node->taxonomy as $term) {
        $ret[] =  $term->tid;
    }   
    return implode('+', $ret);
}
return '';

The '+' in implode is OR. If you want AND, than use ',' instead

Answer 2

Take a look at the RelatedContent module. Links to the module and a couple of tutorials below:

• http://drupal.org/project/relatedcontent
• http://drupaleasy.com/blogs/ryanprice/2008/06/using-views-2-drupal-6-create-a-related-pages-block
• http://www.hankpalan.com/blog/drupal/related-content-views-2-drupal

You say you're having trouble with the display. In that casea, make the view from the above instructions a block, and have it display in a region that's below the node content, though that assumes there's a region in your theme directly below your content.

Answer 3

Override your node view with panels. And create a view block with 'taxonomy id argument', you need to choose default argument options as PHP Code and place this code.

$node = node_load(arg(1));
if($node) {
    foreach($node->taxonomy as $term) {
        $term = $term->tid;
        return $term;
    }   
}

I just launched a site using panels + views magic. http://sgigulf.org/culture/synopsis-of-performers-showcased-by-sgi-gulf
