Drupal 6.x

I'm messing around with CSS-only themeing in drupal 6. It seems like a neat idea, but I'm having trouble getting the footer to go to the bottom of the page without messing with any of the HTML that drupal puts out. I think it is more complicated because I'm working with a 2 column layout. Seems like it should be possible, others are doing it right? The only themes I could find to look at as an example massaged the HTML output before they styled it.

Thanks!

I've been having trouble with 504s (inaccessible website) for a couple of weeks, and have been watching my trackbacks and watchdog tables. I have disabled trackbacks after the spam count climbed to a million, but my watchdog is still getting hammered by dozens of requests a minute. I was running 5.x until a few minutes ago, and have upgraded to 6.1, and am still seeing hundreds of trackback requests in my watchdog, such that that table is rapidly filling up.

I'm using drupal 6 with Image 6.x-1.x-dev (2008-Mar-02) module installed. I've searched high and low and tested several times. I used to be able to restrict access to image galleries, but that was back on drupal 5 using the taxonomy access I believe. It was a term access control that could be configured, and was perfect.

Am I just over looking it? Or perhaps is there an alternative method?

If not, I suppose I'll just wait it out until a version 6.x of taxonomy access

I received this post and want to know how to change the configuration settings the manual wasn't clear to me...

register_globals is enabled. Drupal requires this configuration directive to be disabled. Your site may not be secure when register_globals is enabled. The PHP manual has instructions for how to change configuration settings.

I have installed Drupal 6.1, as I would like to use the latest version, but I now have the problem that this snippet, which worked perfectly in v5 does not work for me at all in v6.

Hi all. I need to have some specific functionality to my Drupal 6.1 driven teaching/lessons website, I am developing.

I know basic PHP (I'm actively learning daily). I am reasonably versed in HTML/CSS/MySQL, oh and I have spent 6 weeks playing with Drupal and so I now understand the relationships between page, theme, block, module etc.

I just need to know, before I start allocating large chunks of time to learning how to code modules etc and the Drupal API, can I add my own MySQL tables to the database with relationships to the Drupal core tables, to extend functionality?
