Images and files - what is REALLY going on deep inside there?

I want to understand what is going on with Drupal files - images in particular.

Case in point: IMCE with filefield_sources will NOT list images that were not uploaded using the upload button on an image field. Supposedly such images are "not usable" by image fields. My first question: Why? Why is one jpeg usable and another isn't?

Installing modules in 7: best practice?

I think the new installation facility in Drupal 7 for modules is fantastic.

However... is this the 'best' way to install modules for 7? I've just been auditing a site, and I see plenty of temporary files from the installs in the temp directory on the host server. Are there other things that could go wrong here, rather than uploading the modules via FTP?

Scheduled emails

Hi all,

I'm trying to create something that can send emails on a specific time interval. ie I want to send emails with data from a web service daily before a specific time or send emails monthly.

Is there a specific module that can help me, or do I need to create something on my own. If i need to write something on my own, can someone suggest how to start.

If you need more information please ask.

Thanks for your help,
Rik

content in columns?

Hiya, I am a newbie with CMS, and installed drupal. Everything went fine, and I made some content and buttons. Very nice.

Javascript window on top of the page

Hi,
I'm trying to create a little transparent slide-message style window on top of (nearly) every page and since I've spent already 2 days trying to figure this out, I thought I'll ask you, guys.
This should be done via custom module.

Question 1: What is the best hook to use to attach such a message to the node (node?). Still need to filter out some though.

Question 2: If anyone knows of any javascript tutorial related to this topic it would be very much appreciated.

Many thanks for help - should you need any more info - just ask.

Views: how to achieve the following?

Hello,

I'd like to achieve the following using views. I'd appreciate if someone can give me some hints.

I have a taxonomy term assigned to hundreds of nodes. The term is displayed in each node. I want to do the following: when I click the link of the term, it goes to the taxonomy term page, but it goes to the page that contains the node that it is clicked from. Say, a node is in page 5 of the taxonomy term page. When I click the term at the node, I go to page 5 directly, which a pager at the bottom navigating to other pages.
