Drupal is up and running but how do I ...?

Ecommerce Integration

Hi everyone

I have decided to go with osCommerce for my ecommerce solution as the current modules don't suite my needs.

I am wanting to know how I can get my shopping cart to appear inside my drupal pages. Currently it acts as a stand alone cart operating beside drupal. I am attempting to get some consistency with look and feel.

Many thanks in advance for any comments.

Regards

Language text links, not flags in localisation module

I have a multilingual site. I have finally gotten the translation working, but now I can't seem to be able to get text-only language links like I've seen on many Drupal-sites.

Question1: I agree with the people here http://drupal.org/node/67817
that textlinks are much better than language flags. BUT, how do I get it working (IE not show the flags)?

Can't add categories to CCK nodes

All:

I seem to have lost the ability to associate taxonomy categories with node created with the CCK module. The Categories section just doesn't appear in edit mode.

I thought the taxoomy_access module might be the culprit, so I disabled it. No change.

I thought I might have messed things up copying my database from postgres to mysql (sigh) so I created a brand new content type for experimentation. I can create and view the custom nodes fine, but still no way to add categories.

Any ideas?

Crontab command help

Up to this point, my site has been read-only for visitors, so it hasn't been a burden to just point my browser to http://www.mysite.com/cron.php after posting the weekly update. But starting next week visitors will have write privileges, so I'd like to automate the cron function.

I understand the M H Dm M Dw settings of a cron job, but need help with the command.

where is the base_url in 5.0 stored?

So, I have been experimenting with 5.0. What's always difficult is when attempts are made to simplify something for some and actually ends up complicating them for others. The base_url is such a point. I always knew it was in settings.php...I had control over it. In 5.0, Drupal does it for me, however, I have NO IDEA where this information is stored.

Create generic link to users blogs with username variable?

How do I create a link so that it goes to the logged in user's blog?
For example, I would like to create a block that says "Click here to start your blog." Then when the user clicks on that it takes him to /blog/username where username is the user's username.
Is there a username variable that will do this?
