Deprecated - Drupal core

I just would like to create a topic to discuss this feature request.

Looking at the latest version of drupal 4.7b3, there are two relationships among terms: relatedness and synonymy. Since 4.7 appears to support tags and possibly user-defined keywords, I think the notions of relatedness and synonymy should be analyzed very carefully.

First on relatedness, I think this feature is currently implemented "correctly". That term A is related to terms B and C implies terms B and C are related to A. But B is not assumed to be related to C.

On synonymy, I think this notion must be rectified by Drupal before it can be applied effectively to a loosely (user-) defined folksonomy or tagging application. Currently, synonymy is NOT even symmetric. Term A is set to be synonymous to term B, but Drupal can not derive that term B is symmetrically synonymous to term A.

I suggest that synonymy be implemented as follows:

+ Assosciated to each term is a set of senses. In each sense, a term can be caterogized to be synonymous to any number of terms in the vocab.

+ All terms synonymous in a sense must be mutually synomyous to one another.

For example, in the creation of a new term "chair", I can define two senses for this term. In the first sense, I define that the following 4 terms are synonymous to it:

# S: president, chairman, chairwoman, chairperson

Greetings:) My appologies if this topic has been discussed before, but I couldn't find it anywhere, so I think it's new.

Hi,
I'm not sure if this topic has been raised. But ... since from 4.7 tags are more visible and supported at least visually (in the way that are selected, which is different from regular vocabs), as far as i know.

Sorry to put this in the development forum, but I have no idea who else might know what's going on. I have a site in development using front page module that has recently manifested something very very strange: An empty node on the node page, dated 5:00 pm, Wed 31 Dec 1969 (which I believe would translate to Jan 1 1970 at midnight GMT, or "0" unix time), credited as by anonymous, with no title. The permalink is "node" itself.

Has anyone seen anything like this? What night be causing this? AFAIK, there is no loop in my front_page php codes.

Dear all,
the bug fix party is happening right now.

has the bugs we are working on

I am trying to figure out how it would be possible to dynamically update the contents of select boxes (the drop down menus). Basically what I want to do is change the items available in one select box based on what is selected in another. For example say I had two select box, one for country and one for state. To start the country list is populated and the state list is empty and based on what the user chooses from the country list, the state one is filled accordingly. I am trying to figure out how to do this using Drupal 4.7.0 beta 3.
