General discussion

No idea how this has happend but /admin/system/modules now gives me this:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare menus_perm() (previously declared in /usr/www/users/knickerl/ivana.dk/modules/menus.module:71) in /usr/www/users/knickerl/ivana.dk/modules/menu.module on line 70

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Much thanks...

Hi,

The more I enjoy Drupal CMS, the more I try to get involved, the less I'm sure about Drupal developement coordination.

I come to Drupal forum to get the latest info, as well as to give some ideas/ coding back and ask some questions (both, general and technical). Then, I wait, but I get no response at all. Ok, for sure my comments may not be very interesting, nor very clear. But then I read posts offering, for instance, polish translation for Drupal and asking how to get involved and... no answers at all either.

I have an idea and I want to know if anyone knows how to realize it with drupal.

I want to put some content to the node but I want to have several posibilities how to render that node. Imagine: same content, but first(default) view is full xhtml view, second is html for old browsers, third one is html for pda (drupal menus and images are cut off), forth can be xml/rss etc. I don't want simple CSS styling of the node, I want completely different look (theme?).

If I create a new page in my drupal system with mostly php code in it, can I and how I use the global $user variable to retrieve the username (field "name" in the users table) ?
The very username of the person connected (so it's in the session or something ?) so when he goes on that page i'll be able to show him a list of clients he's in charge of , this list coming from an external DB that can link his username with it (actually an oracle view).

and what would be the most efficient/elegant way to have this other external oracle DB connection in my drupal page.

I'm just about to look into how to transform my site (http://100777.com) into a static nice little collection of folders and .html files that could be put on a cdrom for instance. Before that I've decided to see if anyone's already done something like this? Didn't find any threads on this yet, perhaps I'll google around in a while.

How difficult is adding the recent entries of Blogs, weblinks, events and such to the main section of your site like in the following URL?

Does it involve hacking so many things, or simpler than it looks?

Can you guys pls point me in the right direction?
