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

Is there a way to print the developer documentation?

Is there a way to print the developer documentation? There were print-friendly pages for the regular documentation pages but it doesn't look like there is an easy way to print the API documentation and other stuff that I would like to have on paper.

Text Area only 1 col. wide in Admin pages

I have Drupal 4.5.5 installed on Ubuntu, running fine. One wierd problem is with the TextArea on the admin pages - such as blocks, the site settings page etc.
What happens is that the width attribute for the textarea comes up as &quot 70 &quot instead of "70" when I do a "view source". I checked common.inc, and did not see anything out of place there either.
Everywhere else, the textarea comes up as required (for user pages). Any help will be appreciated. I also tried hacking it by modifying the drupal.css file, without any luck.

Does the users.data database field require any initial value?

I'm writing a migration script from Mambo to Drupal. The mos-users (Mambo) to users (Drupal) table translation is pretty straightforward.

The Drupal user table, however, has a field called "data" and formats something like this:

a:1:{s:5:"roles";a:1:{i:0;s:1:"2";}}

I notice that it also stores private message module flags when that's in service.

Will I need to initialize that field to anything when I dub the data to the Drupal database, or can I just leave it blank?

max_user_connections error

I've been getting this error on my site:

Warning: mysql_connect(): User peter_n_drupaluser has already more than 'max_user_connections' active connections in /home/peter_n/public_html/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 31
User peter_n_drupaluser has already more than 'max_user_connections' active connections

I have searched the forums, but not found any answers. The site does not seem overloaded (far from it) and a suggestion to check the mysql settings with phpinfo look reasonable to me:

Directive			Local Value	Master Value
mysql.allow_persistent		Off		Off
mysql.connect_timeout		60		60
mysql.max_links			100		100
mysql.max_persistent		10		10
mysql.trace_mode		Off		Off

This could well be a shared hosting issue, so I've logged a support ticket (I will report back on that).

One thought I had was that running cron.php was taking up connections, but that doesn't seem likely as I run it once an hour.

Any suggestions would be gratefully received.

Shortcuts module - links missing in stories?

So, I've started using the Shortcuts module which I love (and it brings taxonomy to life)... I select a menu option, it displays the menu and I choose a submenu... it displays the one story that has that taxonomy term. The story that's displayed is authored with links at the bottom of it - everything down to the links get displayed but the links don't show up! Why not?!?
