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

exporting CSV file

I'm try to make certain data download as a CSV file. I can get the page to download, but it contains all the HTML code in addition to my data.

I grab my posted info and do this in the content portion of my page:

  header("Content-type: application/octet-stream");
  header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$FileName");
  header("Pragma: no-cache");
  header("Expires: 0");
   print $CSVData;

Is there something I can do to make it just give me my data?

iso help for taxonomy design

howdy -- i'm new to drupal and it's the taxonomy which drew me to it. i'm designing a new website for my theater company and would like some advice on how to set up the taxonomy(ies).

i've so far identified these major site functions:
1. archival of past shows (14 years worth), tagged* and searchable with a variety of terms
2. roster of members, both past and present, tagged** and searchable
3. additional functionality for current members but still allowing anyone to register

Security: allow html posts creates security issue via stolen cookies, is that right?

I was planning to let users use html format.

I'm reading wikipeda about security
According to this article
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_cookie

it seems that lettings users post content in html format creates a problem: cookies can be stolen and used to log in. encryption does not help. the only way to address this is by disabling html format.

Aggregation of Movabletype Account - 403 forbidden error

Hello,

I am trying to aggregate some blogs using aggregator module in drupal 4.7. There is some issue with my Movabletype accounts. I've got a feed here:
http://kidslit.menashalibrary.org/atom.xml

I've added that link into the aggregator module, but when I click on Update Items, I get this error message:
The RSS-feed from Kidslit seems to be broken, because of error "403 Forbidden".

semi-clean URL's...

Is it possible to strip just "index.php" from the URL so that they appear as http://localhost/?q=xxx instead of http://localhost/index.php?q=xxx?
My site is running on an IIS server, so I can't (cleanly / reliably) use a rewrite module to do "real" clean URL's. I'd rather not blantently reveal what scripting language the server is using.

Taxonomy Terms dependence

Simple question. How I can achive the behaviour of the drupal bug report site when giving to the node terms?

For example, in first pulldown menu I choose primary term (name of the module) and this change the second pulldown menu which show the versions of the module. Moreover in bug report system there is a case when the second menu is not displayed before the choice in the first is done. Is is some standard behaviour, modulle or I need to make my own patch/modulle?

Thanks ... that's enough questions for today
