Drupal 6.x

Hi All,

Just wondering on off line manual such as chm, html or pdf. Do anyone have done converting the Drupal handbook to off line manual?

I'm hoping someone might be able to give me some insight on how I might achieve something like the following scenario. I'm pretty new at Drupal so bear with me, I appreciate any help!

Scenario:
Have a website that has basic Home/About/Portfolio/Blog/Contact pages.

Web designer needed to implement a new version of Creative Network Designs website (www.creativenetworkdesign.com)using Drupal CMS. This project is not from scratch – we already have a website and we have a very concrete idea and illustration of what we want for the websites second iteration. The top-level architecture and contents for page types are already specified and wire-frame mock-ups with ideas for rough layouts of each page type have been created. There are approximately 9 unique page styles.

Download the architecture and wire-frame mock-ups here:

PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO LOOK AT THIS AND THE EXISTING WEBSITE OR YOUR OFFER WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED.

All text, product shot, logos company/branding content will be supplied. So mainly color, navigation styles, content layout and more subtle design elements will be needed.

IMPORTANT: We are technically oriented, we have designed basic websites ourselves, and we will need the ability to do basic editing of the site, add new content to template pages, and modify both the navigation menu and sub-menu-items and sidebar items by ourselves, on the fly, as needed. This should be specifically addressed in the proposal.

Skills required:

Hi,

As a newbie, I made the mistake of installing 6.x thinking "newer is always better". Since most of the modules available are compatible with 5.x, I want to downgrade to 6.x.--Is this possible?

If this is not a feasible option, I was thinking of just installing 5.x. Would you advise this? Also, I'm assuming I could just go through the normal installation process and not have to do anything different than what I did when I installed 6.x. For example, I don't have to remove the database I made for 6.x, right?

I've been looking through some module code in advance of working on updating a few modules to 6.x. Developers don't seem to be using php exceptions within module code, but I can't find anything in the developer docs that specifically suggests against it. Have I missed something about this? If I haven't missed anything, does anyone with some experience have an opinion about using php exceptions within module code?

hi
i was not sure where to post this.
i see this issue on several drupal installations.

Most of the sites do not put an empty index.html to their /sites directory
or let say directories under /site like

/sites/all/modules
/sites/all/themes
etc...

especially sites operate on windows machines or do not use apache or .htaccess effectively for
folder read permissions.

Without an empty index.html their theme names or modules or any other folders
used, can be seen from internet browsers.
