About object mounting

I have a few question mounting objects

1. An object A is mounted to another object B. When i try to call
A.getTransform();
the returned tranform is always "0 0 0 1 0 0 0".
How can I get the transform of an object that is mounted on another object?

2. Can I get the Position of a node of an object?

Try
B.getmountedobject(0).getTransform();
or
B.getmountnodeobject(0).getTransform();

3. Can an Item be mounted to another object, say, a vehicle? I manage to mount a staticShape object to the vehicle, but when I try to mount an item to the vehicle, the item doesn't appear. What might be the problem?

4. Can I mount an object A to an object B, which is mounted on another object C?
