How to add link to book/print pages

I know that the module is locate at /modules/book.module , but all I see is

$links[] = l(t('add child page'), "node/add/book/parent/$node->nid");
}
$links[] = l(t('printer-friendly version'), 'book/print/'. $node->nid, array('title$
}
}
return $links;

Is it possible to add a link back to the home page?

Taxonomy URLs with symbolic names?

This is probably a FAQ but I couldn't find an answer anywhere. Is there a way to have a taxonomy URL be more symbolic? That is, right now if I have a category term like "General information", the URL is http://follen.org/?q=taxonomy/term/2. Is there some way I could get that to be a more user-friendly URL like http://follen.org/?q=taxonomy/term/GeneralInformation or somethnig like that?

Thanks...

How do I use a dropdown list based on multiple nodes data that will display a list?

Yep that is a pretty long question. So let break it down for you (and I).

How do I use a dropdown list based on multiple nodes data that will display a list?

I have used flexinode to create custom nodes and it is working great. The node goes like this:

School
-Logo
-Teachers
-Description
-Web site
-Location
-Etc

I would like to create a page that has a dropdown list witch contain all "location" possibilities. When I use one of the location, all school teaser in this place (or city) will show.

How do I remove the "Welcome to your new Drupal-powered website" bit without adding content?

I have a detailed mission statement which is fine for my front page. I may have news items on the front page from time to time, so I don't want to set the front page to something else. But if there is nothing promoted to the front page, I don't want that "Welcome..." coming up. I just want to leave it empty except for the mission if there are no nodes promoted.

I've searched the site and all I found was someone telling the person to add content, which doesn't help me. :)

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Michelle

Working with Xenu - why all the false broken links?

I recently converted an existing site over to Drupal and thought I'd be smart and use Xenu link sleuth to sniff out any links using the old site's dir structure. What I got back was un-nerving. 1200 plus broken links! After my heart skipped a few beats I looked at a few of the reported links and noted that the URLs it was trying to get access to didn't exist. I looked at the source code of the pages it identified the broken link on and couldn't find the link.

Is there some reason that Xenu and Drupal don't play well together?

Help, something happened - errors

I came home at lunch today and my site which has been working fine for months suddently has these errors:

user error: Can't create/write to file '/tmp/#sql_3aa0_0.MYI' (Errcode: 28)
query: SELECT DISTINCT(p.perm) FROM role r INNER JOIN permission p ON p.rid = r.rid INNER JOIN users_roles ur ON ur.rid = r.rid WHERE ur.uid = 0 in /home/howtobox/public_html/boxing/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 66.

No idea why. See for yourself at http://www.how-to-box.com/boxing/
