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

Drupal 4.7, FF displays right, but IE is garbage. CSS problems...

I have a site that I am playing around with and it looks great in FireFox, but IE displays it as complete and total garbage. Take a look at the site and you will see it...it's pretty obvious.

Any ideas of what I can do to correct this so that it displays correctly in both browsers? I'm using the Blue_Bars theme for 4.7 and modified some of the css, but not too much. Any help would be appreciated.

Customizing Pager - please help!

Hi there,

I am looking for a way to change the way that the "next page" links are generated. By defualt, the links are formatted as follows:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 next> last>

What I would like to see is a shorter link of links, like this:

1 2 3 4 next> last>

How large should search_index and search_total grow?

Im looking at my database, the search_index and search_total tables and already the search_index has grown to 231,498 rows. The search_total is at 27,631 rows. The site has a total of about 1,600 nodes, with quite a bit of text in each node.

Is there ever a point where this becomes too large or slows down the site?

Minimum word length to index is set to 3.
Minimum word length to search is set to 3.

All comments are appreciated,
-=Vince

Referrer log polluted with local clicks

My referrers log is polluted with "referrals" from links internal to my site. Do i have something misconfigured? I'm on 4.7.0, but this is the case on my 4.6 sites as well.

Thanks,

Can't log in with Drupal 4.7 and IE

I have a problem logging in with Drupal 4.7 using IE6. User/password is correct but it wont let me log in without requesting a new password. I rest the password, and log out and it wont let me log in again!

FF works.

I've spotted this as being a long-term problem on older threads but the solutions don't appear secure. Can't seem to find it in FAQs...

getting session cookie info

I'm trying to embed the perl functionality of my old site into my new drupal site. I have this working fine:

<?php
global $user;
$function = 'http://mysite.com/AdminFunctions/myfunction.cgi?User=';
$send = $function . $user->name;

include $send;

?>

My problem lies in that I need for access to these files to be limited by access levels/roles within drupal. If I put it behind any other kind of access, drupal can't include it. If I leave it web accessible, it's not limited/secure. If I try this code.

<?php
global $user;
$function = '/full/system/path/AdminFunctions/myfunction.cgi?User=';
$send = $function . $user->name;

include $send;

?>

I get:

warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/html/drupal/includes/common.inc(1816) : eval()'d code on line 6.

warning: Unknown: Failed opening 'full/system/path/AdminFunctions/myfunction.cgi?User=anne.ramey' for inclusion (include_path='.:/php/includes:/usr/share/php:/phpincludes') in /var/www/html/drupal/includes/common.inc(1816) : eval()'d code on line 6.

It appears that this is a php path problem, but is there any way to work around it? My ideal is to have the cgi files in a folder that is not web browsable, then drupal can completely control access to the functionality. I'm sorry if this is an ignorant question. I've done some research and all the php include reference are either for files in the same dir or urls.
