How to create a full ajax Drupal website

Hello there,

I came from Wordpress theming and now I'm discovering the powerful world of Drupal.
One thing that was trivial for me to develop was making ajaxed websites...

Wordpress is really easy to hack, so I could create full ajax websites requesting nodes url with a GET variable (like ajax=1) to hide site header and footer and just returning the content.

I know Drupal has an entirely different architecture. What are the basic steps, modules, tutorials and concepts you know about creating full ajax websites?

Thankyou!

Online services Site

Guys,
My aplogies if I'm repeating anything that someone asked before, but I searched for the answer to my question and was not successful.

I want to set up a site where ppl would pay for various services (e.g. developing software etc...)

Is there any module that would address this. For instance a customer requests a service done, and then right on the site they can go and keep in communication with the service provider until the service is completed after which payment is made..

Can anyone help with this

How much css tweaking is "acceptable"?

Hi guys,

this is more of a general question but i'm sure it involves themeing. I've started doing some themeing and noticed I can achieve pretty much what I want with some css scripting for basic Drupal sites. I've fallen in love with Views, CCK and panels so sometimes I overwrite the theme with a panel then use css from there on. I wanting to know if this is a good coding standard?

Much of the css classes are generated by drupal and contrib modules. Using some tweaks i'm able to be very specific and theme different things the way I want.

mysql query to db_select

this is the full query

    SELECT t.* 
    FROM
      table AS t
    JOIN
    ( SELECT title, MAX(last_sent) AS maxts
      FROM table
      GROUP BY title
    ) AS grp
    ON grp.title = t.title
    AND grp.maxts = t.last_sent
    LEFT OUTER JOIN table_l list ON t.title = list.title

I try to convert it to db_select since i need to use pager and order by on my table.

i want to do something like this:

[Philosophical] People asking for a free Drupal site because they have an "idea"

I want to have a "philosophical" discussion about something that frustrates me.

Why do so many people post on Drupal.org, asking for "us developers" to build them a website because they have an "idea", but no budget or any other advantage to bring to the table. I think it is a disease of our modern society where people think like "I have a great idea, but no money, please build me a free site and I'll give you a good reference IF the work is done right." Absurd, as if developers never have good site ideas and "idea people" should make millions of free/cheap developer labor.

Something is wrong here. Let's call it the "Winklevoss-mentality" after the Winklevoss brothers who sued Facebook's Zuckerberg for stealing "their idea". This is a kind of mentality that actually inhibits innovation.

There's a few ways to to innovate:

- you have an idea -> learn the skills an d build it yourself;
- you have an idea -> hire a well-paid developer team;

In contrast to the Winklevoss mentality:

- we have an idea, then someone else built it-> go to court

To my honest opinion "ideas" have zero value. All ideas should be "open source".

To categorize uploaded images

I am working on a drupal project and i need to categorize uploaded images in folder. By default images is uploaded in public or private folder but rather this I want to upload images in folders like: [public]/year/month/[image name]. I need to do one more thing in this that images should be renamed as year_month_ID.jpg.

Please provide me some code to do this.

Thanks in advance
