Post installation

This appears to be one of those days when I'm completely blind when it comes to searching the API.

Drupal appears to have a library function that can convert a unix timestamp to this relative statement of "x days ago" or "has been a member for x weeks". I assume that this can be used by modules as well.

What's the name of this function?

This is the second time I install drupal. First time was a battle and a half with 4.7.4 and I have been grateful that I didn't have to make changes to the mySQL to create all the tables this time.

OS Windows XP
Hosted Locally
Apache 2.3.x
PHP 5.2
mySQL 5.0
Drupal 4.7.5

The problem I'm having is say I submit information in a form, any form, after pressing submit the page loads blank. I'm not certain why.

Any ideas?

This is a pretty straightforward question and there is probably already a module to do this but I can't find it anywhere.

I don't want anonymous users to see anything but the teasers. Another way to say it is I only want registered users to see the full article or story.

How do I accomplish this?

Thanks in advance

Well I just installed drupal's forum module and the forum looks very basic as compared to drupal's forum. I want to make my site's forum http://www.coders2020.com/forum looks like same as drupal's forum in terms of looks and functionality. What should I do ? also I want to make the url's from /node/2 to /best-operatingsystem (search engine friendly). What should I do ?

Thanks

I'm using drupal 5.x and having problems getting a simple calendar block. I searched and know that the archives calendar nolonger is available with drupal 5.x and the events module is not availabe yet for 5.x.

Now there is the calendar module but it doesnt' seem to work in blocks or am I missing something?

Can anyone help. I wanted to create a simple calendar and maybe get it to display a certain users posts. Can this be done currently or do I have to wait for the new modules to come out?

Thanks for any info.

Is there a way scrollable memos can be added to views? This will make it easy to browse memos.
I added a memo field to a view and the display was messed up completely.
