Drupal 6.x

In a system where users will be able to make their own appointments, I would like an email address to be emailed any time a change, addition or entry is deleted.

I would also like the content to be present in the email.

Is there a module out there that would help

I'm looking for a shopping cart solution. In particular, I need,
1. A solution can sell both product and membership.
2. A solution as a shopping mall that different merchants can put up their own stores. When sales happen, the mall charges a commission.

Does ecommerce or ubercart do what I need?

Does anyone have a good/native php solution for parsing user agent strings?

My themer module currently places classes onto the body tag based on roles, path, locale, etc. I wanted to add a simple browser class as well which would simply just be something like

The problem

Drupal lacks a generalized facility to generate feeds.

Discussion

As it stands Drupal only creates RSS feeds. This is not a problem in of itself but it does set the tone for contributed modules. For example pathauto.module automagically creates url aliases as well as feed aliases but it only understand that it is aliasing the RSS feed. While it is possible to generate other feeds through the addition of modules such as atom.module there is no interaction between modules.

Solutions

Drupal needs a core module that handles generating feeds. This module needs to be able to let other modules know which types of feeds it generates in order to allow modules like pathauto.module to generate aliases for all available feeds.

My preference is to have a feed.module that houses sub-modules such as atom, rss, and others. This would allow for structures such as /feed/rss and /feed/atom as well a future feed types.

There are other benefits to a more modular feed facility, one of the other benefits is that it would allow for custom feed types to be installed and created easily. One other benefit would be to make it easier to upgrade a feed type outside of the Drupal cycle.

I'm building a news site with Drupal. I want to write a cron that picks up the news stories from XML files and inserts them into the Drupal database. Is there a way to replicate the functionality of the "Create Story" page at "/node/add/story"? Methods available via the API perhaps? Or, if there is any documentation that describes exactly what tables are updated when a new story is added?

Hello!

While researching for my own website I stumbled upon this page from the W3C:
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-media-types/#application-xhtml-xml (Also take a look at 3.5 Summary)

As you can see, Drupal 6 should use the media type "application/xhtml+xml" instead of "text/html", because the drupals doctype say it's XHTML.
