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

how do you change the search button image, & add other stuff up there

Its very boring looking as I'm trying to make my site very exciting & well, different in an attractive way. Where is this image located so I can change it to an image I want. & can the button be larger then the current one?

I would also LOVE to add other buttons up there. Eg. an image of a dog reading, that links to my forum. An image of a dog playing a game to link to my game url, etc.

Thanks in advanced guys!

secure and writable folders

Hello-

A couple of days ago I was having trouble with hackers on my drupal installation. The reason for the trouble was that my /public_html/files folder permissions was set to 777. I know, stupid. I set them to 755, but the file became unwritable by Drupal.

Looking this up here, I don't see an adequate answer to this problem.

I changed the ftp settings to disallow anonymous ftp and switch the permissions on /files back to 777 so that my users could write to it. I switched back and forth between permissions when I could, but that is impracticle.

Intermittent illegal choice error with user registration

Sometimes users can register, and other times a registration attempt gets an error,
"You have made an illegal choice in ."

I had a user register just fine, then just a few minutes later got an email (from another person who tried to register) about the error. Sure enough, when I logged out and tried to create a new user account, I got the same error.

Problem submitting content

When I tried to submit a long post I got the following error message.

Not Acceptable
An appropriate representation of the requested resource / could not be found on this server.

Apache/1.3.34 Server at www.myfqdn.com Port 80

Solution:
Add "SecFilterEngine Off" to the .htaccess file. This is probably a configuration problem with mod_security.

Simple php question...

I guess this will be a simple ? for most here, but well beyond my knowledge...

I have this code to implement a book menu (courtesy of coreyp_1 at this thread http://drupal.org/node/44325 ):


<?php
$book_top_page = 6;
$levels_deep = 2;
$emulate_book_block = true;
global $_book_children;
if (!isset($_book_children)) {
$_book_children = array();
}
if (!function_exists('book_struct_recurse')){
function book_struct_recurse($nid, $levels_deep, $children, $current_lineage = array(), $emulate_book_block = true, $first = true) {
$struct = '';
if ($children[$nid] && ($levels_deep > 0 || ($emulate_book_block && in_array($nid, $current_lineage)))) {
$struct = '

    ';
    foreach ($children[$nid] as $key => $node) {
    $id = ($first ? ' id="book_menu_first"' : '');
    $first = false;
    if ($tree = book_struct_recurse($node->nid, $levels_deep - 1, $children, $current_lineage, $emulate_book_block, false)) {
    $struct .= '
  • ';
    $struct .= l($node->title, 'node/'. $node->nid);
    $struct .= '
      '. $tree .'

    ';
    $struct .= '

  • ';
    }
    else {
    if ($children[$node->nid]){
    $struct .= '

  • '. l($node->title, 'node/'. $node->nid) .'
  • ';
    }
    else {
    $struct .= '

  • '. l($node->title, 'node/'. $node->nid) .'
  • ';

RSS feed on frontpage

Is it possible to show my feeds in the center of my frontpage as a node instead of on a block in my sidebar?
