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

simplenews stylesheet

I'm experimenting with simplenews module, which I like very much.

The stylesheet enclosed with the module seems to refer to the styles working within the simplenews site pages - do any of them govern the formatting used for the actual email newsletter? Or does it use something like the print.css - it appears to have the same formatting as that?

Inserting PHP Includes within the body of a page

Hello,

One of many reasons I love Drupal is that you can put php snippets into the body of a page.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get it to work. What I need to do is to have a php include file inserted directly into the body of a page. When typing up the article, I input the php code and checked the "use php code" at the bottom. However, when I publish it, instead of the contents of the php include file showing up (which is stored on a .txt file in a seperate directory I created), all of the php code I inserted shows up instead.

How do I alias files, modules, etc for multiple sites located outside of drupal base tree

I have located domain outside of the "base" drupal tree and aliased the sites/aliasedDomain with a symlink. Everything works great except for trying to load files to the aliased domain location such as when changing the default logo in administer -> templates -> Upload Logo.

The files get uploaded to the drupal /files directory and not the aliased.domain.com/files directory. I have worked with aliasing in the Apache httpd.conf file and tried symlinks in the baseDrupal.com directory for the files directory. All to no avail.

strange site5 image poblem

I'm working on moving a domain to a site5 multisite account. I'm trying to get everything working on the new host before I transfer my domain over. This means that I'm working with

http://66.29.79.66/~albertag/

Now for all my images that use relative paths the browser (both IE & FF1.5) seems to be tossing away everything after the ~ in the base URL. This means it's looking for images in

http://66.29.79.66/files/images/

Does anyone know a diff that works on sql?

I am trying to set up a reference site and create an "sql patch" file so that I can just put the sql file into the installer and have it update the database accordingly.

I saved the database after installation, and after I had gone in and fixed some of the inappropriate defaults (eg. friendly paths, path aliases on, certain modules active by default, site name set to $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']) saved again.

I tried windiff but that only produces a useless patch file that has the minimal changes to go from one sql file to the other.

Breadcrumb not showing up

I am using Page type node for creating non content type pages (e.g about us, contact, term of service etc.) and they do not belong to any taxonmy. I don't see any breadcrumb for other pages except the home page. I am using a modified phptemplate based theme. And I have this in page.tpl.php
print $breadcrumb but it does not show breadcrumb when I go to, e.g About Us page. It should shoe Home >> About Us. But it does not show the breadcrumb.
