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

Can't See pictures after creating a new page

This is probably a simple setup issue, but:

When creating a new page in TinyMCE, I can insert pictures with no trouble. When I view the pages on the site, no pictures appear. I have several stock themes I'm trying to make work, and no picture will show up on a page under any theme.

Anyone have an idea?

thanks,

Taxonomy and custom PHP to output multi-tiered menu split over different divs

Hi,

I'm trying to create a complex hierarchy for a website and although I think I 'get' taxonomy, I need to use it to output a multi-tiered menu split over different divs as I've tried to illustrate in:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v76/pinkspaidaa/drupal/taxonomyhelp.jpg

- In #header, I need links to the main sections.
- In #navbar, I need links to the second layer of sections.
- I need the links to the first and second children only of the second-layer sections to be displayed in #navcontainer within a block divided into #navcontainer and #navtitle, with the title of the block outputted as text in #navtitle. (This may not be a block in the Drupal sense, just a div so I can space the resulting squares down the page.)

- In #main, I need the title of the currently selected page and beneath the title, I need the next layer of children to be listed as links, with the breadcrumb reflecting the change.
- eg. if I had just clicked on the second child of a main section, I would expect to see only the third children. If I clicked on one of those links, I would expect to see only the fourth children and so on.

- Beneath the title and links, I would sometimes want all the content filed under that page to be displayed, and sometimes not.

- As you can see from the picture, I want a multiple hierarchy with related terms (so, for example, I could view by Regions to display both the Staff and Projects in Northern Ireland, with links to related items like Staff in England etc.)

i18n module - can't see translations tab

I've installed the i18n module, and I can set the language of a current page node to English. But when I preview or save and re-edit the page, I still don't have a translations tab. From what I've read I need to update my database, but I don't understand enough yet to know what I have to do.

Help would be appreciated!

Cron job only ran once

I'm a newbie with Drupal and haven't got a lot of UNIX experience either. However I managed to configure cron jobs via the shell:
45****/usr/bin/wget -0 - -q http://www.mysite.com/Drupal/cron.php
Unfortunately whenever I check the cron job settings it says something like this:
"Cron is running. The last cron job ran 1 week 5 days ago"
Now, is cron running or not? Shouldn't it run every hour according to my code or did it just run once? Any ideas what went wrong?

Listing by Taxonomy

I have run into a problem with taxonomy. What I want is to list certain blog postings by their category. What I experience is denied access to anonymous/unregistered users.

Is there a better technique for displaying posts? Perhaps by node type? I have found a php snippet for displaying by node type, but it only lists titles and I want to display multiple nodes on a single page.

Uploaded Files not Attaching

I am trying to set up my new production server. Porting over a working dev version from another box. Dumped the MySQL tables, imported on new server, and copied over all the files. I can log into Drupal fine, all my old data is there, etc. The problem is when I try to create a new post, be it a page or story. I can create the post, but the attachment fails. I can see the attached file in the temp directory on the server, so I know its made it that far, hoever there is no entry in the files table, nor does the file get copied over to the drupal files directory.
