Joomla load module on extra place? - joomla

Question

On my k2 pages I needed module complete on the top area, a module assign is not possible because the pages are dynamicly from the DB selected. So I installed a module like "loadmodule", the difference is simple I can get module with specific id.
For example: {loadmodulefromarticle|97} if I use it in the extra fields or in the content area then it works, but as written I need it in the top area of my page, so I have an if request and try load k2 content on the top. I get content and that's ok. But I see here only plain text and the module is not loaded. My question is, what is to insert here so that I get the module loaded? I think it can be something around to $result;
<?php
$menuID = JSite::getMenu()->getActive()->id ;
if ($menuID == '713') {
$db = JFactory::getDbo();
$query = $db->getQuery(true);
$query->select('introtext');
$query->from('#__k2_items');
$query->where('id = ' . JRequest::getInt('id'));
$db->setQuery($query);
$result = $db->loadResult();
?>
<div id="gkHeaderMod">
<div><?php echo $result; ?></div>
</div>
<?php
}
?>

You could do something like the following. It uses Joomla coding standards to get the menu ID and renderModule to display the module.
<?php
$app = JFactory::getApplication();
$menuID = $app->getMenu()->getActive()->id;
if ( $menuID == '713' ) {
$db = JFactory::getDbo();
$query = $db->getQuery(true)
->select('introtext')
->from('#__k2_items')
->where('id = ' . JRequest::getInt('id'));
$db->setQuery($query);
$result = $db->loadResult();
echo '<div id="gkHeaderMod">';
$module = JModuleHelper::getModule( 'mod_example', 'Module Title' );
echo JModuleHelper::renderModule( $module );
echo '</div>';
}
?>
Note that you will have to change mod_example and Module Title to whatever you require
