Post installation

I have three accounts under /var/www;

/var/www/site1
/var/www/site2
/var/www/site3

I was having an issue with editviews resolving, it seems to loop. Then I had an issue with the importhtml module. The I had some system() faults in cck. So in the better interest of not posting myself crazy, I upgraded my php from 5.0.5 to 5.1.2.

After upgrading everything smoothed out. All issues revolved except ONE . . .

Tables Don't Display Properly

1) I create a new page
2) For input format I select full htmls
3) I insert a table
4) But when the table displays, the width seems to "expand" to fit the page (despite the html code)

Hi all,

I´m preparing my site to update to drupal 5 final when available but I´m encountering some troubles. Primarily I´m unnable to find the module settings page of the next drupal 5 modules:

pathauto
live discussions
views

Anyone could tell me where are that settings page? I´ve tried through the "By Module" page. The modules appear, but no one form of configuration.

Thanks in advance, Simon.

What's the best way to integrate pure html pages into a drupal site?

There are some things that i'd like to do that are just easier (editing large tables etc) to do outside of drupal as pure html pages but that i still want to "live" under my drupal site.

I imagine i could just tie a menu item to point to an "actual directory path" somewhere underneath my drupal main directory.. but then modrewrite would have to be modified for that directory to break the default rewrite rules (i think?).

High all)
Asking for a small piece of advice here.
I have a site which presents goods separated into hierarched categories. For instance:

Paper goods
- Napkins
- Toilet paper
Plastic goods
- Cups
- Spoons
...
etc.

The vocabulary for these categories is "Goods groups".
Element type is manual Flexinode (pic + several text areas).
So now I want to make the goods available for view in tabular view.

I built a dynamic left-bar menu of categories, items of which are linked to "taxonomy/term/NN" -
thus leading to list of goods on a dedicated page - Drupal-style - like posts, newest on top -
themed by appropriate node-flexinode-1.tpl.php.

But it has certain disadvantages - just a standard output of posts with no ability
to add headers of table listing the goods, etc. So now I decided it's better for menu
to be linked to "node/XX" - a page which is in the same category (now vocabulary includes both
flexinode-1 and page types) and just manually lists the goods from wanted category. One page per one category.
Is it reasonable? or people do it other way usually? (Maybe Views module could manage?)

If my way is OK, please let me knoe how to create such page on creation of category by user.
For instance when user adds "Forks" to "Plastic goods", the menu attains element "Forks"
which leads to node/1234 - which is a single page with PHP getting goods of this category from DB

Hello,

As a holiday present, I am helping a friend convert her website to Drupal. She already has her own site structure which I really need to preserve, and I would like your advice in setting this up in Drupal. She is setting up an instructional site. She has 4 menus, one is for main navigation (simple Drupal menu).

Two switch off depending on what page you are on. If you are on any non-instructional page (such as front page) the 2nd menu just lists all the tutorials on the site, where the names link to the main overview of that tutorial. If you are on a tutorial page then this menu lists all the other tutorials on the site. So, same list as before minus the tutorial you are viewing.

The last menu only appears when you are on a tutorial page and it is an table of contents of the tutorial. On the bottom of each tutorial page is a next and previous link where next and previous are actually the name of the next and previous page, not the words next and previous.

How would you suggest I construct this site? What content types and/or modules should I use? I would love for the links on this site to be as dynamic as possible. So really all she would have to do is add a new tutorial, add it to her menu structure and the rest would be done for her. What would you suggest for the multi-page structure? How can I execute the menus explained above.

Thank you all in advance for the advice. I look forward to all your suggestions.
