General discussion

It’s long back when people stopped thinking why they are in this world. What are they doing? Are they doing what they are suppose to do?

Hi all,

I´m interested in centralized the system logs of several machines using nsyslogd.

So, I would like to know if the watchDog module can be configure to view all centralized logs or if it only supports configuring for viewing web logs or if it´s not configurable at all working only as a web log analyzer.

Thanks,

Dear drupal support , I am a MAC user and I try to run a java webcam on my website.

I have a few questions before I migrate my site over to drupal...
My site would be a graphic/games website. I would offer downloads,tutorials (In multiple categories),flash games, interviews,and reviews...
The layout would be a 3 column layout with a header and 2 static columns on the left and right and an expanding middle column...

Would it be easy to create a tutorials section with categories?
What about a breadcrumb trail? Is that an easy feature to add? (Home>Tutorials>Photoshop>Make a Fish)

I browsed the module directory and couldn't find a related stories module. Is there a module out there that does related stories?

Hi,

I'm am almost ready with a module that should generate some pdf labels. For now i was using a free pdf class (because i was used to it) from http://www.ros.co.nz/pdf/ . Now before comitting this module i want to rewrite it so that i only use pdf function calls from the API (see drupaldocs).

To my disappointment, this means that a pdf extension ala clibpdf must be installed on your system. This is not standard in a php distribution.
Therefor i would like to suggest that the two or so classes from the site i mentioned should be included into drupal. That way, every developper could use it. (I'm thinking about pdfview module, e.g, or handbook). The code is free, so it is no problem to include it.

If there is a way to include the classes as modules, that would do also, but i don't see how that can happen, as of course there are no hooks implemented.

I would like to not need the classes included in my module, as those are much to generic and useful for others.

Any suggestions are welcome. which way should we go?

In some other node i found a discussion concerning the fonts. There was a 'quick' hack from Steven on fpdf (IIRC) to support UTF8. But no further work seems to be done on that part. Wouldn't it be useful to have one of the free pdf classes available to modules, even if the encoding support is not really there yet?

thx for your input...
