I'm currently trying to use Drupal to generate the XML needed to be fed into a Flash frontend.
I'm new to the world of CMS and Drupal seemed to have everything in order, save for this one small task. In fact, Drupal has been so impressive thus far that I'm sure my problem is something that I'm overlooking...
What I will have
---------------
*I have a number of images, that will eventually be displayed in Flash in groups ("projects"). Each project has a small bit of associated blurb.
*There are two purely textual parts of the finished site that will be editable (though this bit doesn't present much of a problem).
Given Drupal's flexibility, there seem to be a number of ways in which I can organize my data. This is where things me well get a bit curious.
I have assigned the drupal image module a vocabulary and have structured my "projects" by adding terms to this vocabulary. When I want to upload a group of images belonging to a particular project I go "create content/images" then I associate the image with a particular term using the drop down menu.
I'm not sure if this is even close to how my data should be structured to achieve my desired result. Sorry to be somewhat verbose in my explanation, heaven forbid that I should leave anything out. Anyway...
This enabled me to use the RSS feed for each termin which I put a group of pictures. So half the job done...
