Drupal 7: How can I get path for node or term in drupal with php code?

Question

I must build a block that retrieves children of a specific term id by selecting it through $node->title of a page. So, I get it with taxonomy_get_termBy_name. With this $term->tid I can get children of it by calling taxonomy_get_children(). Ok, it returns an array of children. For each child I must take name and path in order to build an . How can i retrieve these properties? I am unable to find a module that performs these operations, so I must build my own block.

You can use the l() function to do this.

Example:

$link = l('Link Title', 'node/' . $node_id);
$link = l('Link Title', 'taxonomy/term/' . $term_id);
