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

Text sometimes doesn't show until "highlighted"

I've noticed, when surfing Drupal.org, that sometimes sections of text, especially in the ... boxes, that portions of the text will not show properly until I highlight it with my cursor. Maybe only the top 1/2 of the line will display for 5-6 lines, or maybe 4-5 lines will be completely gone, but other portions will show up perfectly. When I highlight the improperly displayed portion by holding the left-mouse button and selectioning the section, the text apperas in the highlighted portion just fine.

HDI display random photos from Acidfree albums in a php snippet?

I would like to randomly display images from Acidfree albums on my homepage in a php snippet.
This is what I've got so far:

This is supposed to load 3 random images.

    $where = "class != 'album' ORDER BY RAND()";
    $query = "SELECT aid FROM {acidfree} WHERE $where LIMIT 3"; 
    $result = db_query($query);
    $nodes = Array();
    while ($row = db_fetch_object($result)) {
        $nodes[] = acidfree_get_node_by_id($row->aid);
    }
    return $nodes;
    foreach ($nodes as $node) {
        $output .= "<div class='random-image'>";
        $output .= theme("acidfree_print_thumb_{$node->class}", $node);
        $output .= "</div>";
    }
    return $output;

What I get is:
This is supposed to load 3 random images.
Array

I'm guessing the key component is {acidfree} in the query line, but I'm not sure. Any ideas how to make this work?

Thanks!

PS. I took the code from this portion of the acidfree.module:
<?php
function acidfree_get_block_nodes($where, $count) {
$query = "SELECT aid FROM {acidfree} WHERE $where LIMIT $count";
$result = db_query($query);
$nodes = Array();
while ($row = db_fetch_object($result)) {
$nodes[] = acidfree_get_node_by_id($row->aid);
}
return $nodes;
}

function acidfree_block_contents($where, $count) {
$nodes = acidfree_get_block_nodes($where, $count);
foreach ($nodes as $node) {

Menu Images - roll-overs

Hello

Is it possible to create a menu with images instead of text links?
And to have roll-over images and have the second image stay active when the user clicks it??

Something similar to this http://www.projectseven.com/tutorials/css/uberlinks/hzlistdemo.htm

thanks

how can I create a block with an unordered list menu using taxonomy_dthml?

The menu that taxonomy_dthml creates in the /taxonomy_dhtml page is an unordered list (using the HTML UL and UI tags) but the one it provides in the block is not.

How do I get the module to create an unordered list in the block it provides?

Multiple wikis

I am trying to combine multiple (non drupal) sites under one domain using drupal so that one login works for everything. My problem is that I have 2 wikis and possibly a third and have no idea how to go about doing this. I have read through the wiki recipies on how to create a wiki and have read that I could use the book section to set the wiki up in but my question is how would I go about doing multiple wikis that are not at all connected.

Polls inside story node...like on dailykos

Has anyone developed a way for polls to be inserted on a story page? Basically, I want users to be able to submit a story...but have the option of including a poll with their story....This is used alot on dailykos...so I'm assuming its a function of Scoop. Anyone know if this is possible with Drupal?
