Post installation

I am interested on including source code on some nodes, but I haver some problems with special HTML charset. I tried to use "code" tag, but it doesn't change the special chars inside by the HTML code.

And other question... ¿can I create an special tags installing a handler to do something without code a drupal module?

Here is just a test of code tag... this cant be readed: "<hello>"

I'm playing about trying to find the right theme for my site, and the best way to arrange it, and I like the look of the Gworks theme a lots, especially the possibilities it gives me for organising the front page.

Say I have paths like this:

limassol
limassol_hotels
limassol_hotels_amathus

I want to create expression for block which will contain something like: show on all nodes starting from "limassol".

Thanks

Hi,

I've been playing with Drupal for the past week or so. I'm very impressed. Before my site goes live, I need to find a way of allowing Drupal to elegantly handle the mysql server being offline (the mysql server will not be on localhost, but is atm for testing). Right now, if a visitor visits the site whilst the mysql server is not responding, the user is greeted with a rather cryptic;

Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)

Is there a way of replaceing this with a page? Even a simple html file would suffice.

All,

So, having lived with the limitations of Php-Nuke for too long for my personal site (http://www.warrenernst.com/) I'm checking out Drupal. So far, the migration goes well.

I'd like to have a "Gallery"-like set photo albums that the public can see without logging in. I have installed image.module and I can add an image node, and thumbnailing and linking works fine.

How to use filter in block? Is it possible?
I've tried but no effect.

Thanks
