Deprecated - Drupal core

From Slashdot; http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/01/08/0439231

Hello all,

Their is something that I would like to do with Drupal, and I'm sure there is something in the handbook about it, but I just can't find it at the moment. So I was wondering if someone could explain to me a general idea, or point me to a document to help me understand.

I need an If statement that will test if the user is an admin.

Thanks

last week i have downloaded some modules from this website. but when i installed them i found many errors on the module and some of them does not work properly.the errors are mostly related to database and php codings.As iam working in a project at present, please help me to solve this problem.I dont remember the exact name of the modules.

i hav translated the drupal template available on the site and succuesfully imported those to the drupal but i dont know wat is the problem that some of teh strings (tarnslated ones) are not working, i hav translated drupal to urdu ,and hav translated all files but wen i import all teh files it still shows that only 80 % of the strings are translated and some of the fstrings are still being shown in english instead of urdu
wat shud i do any idea, plzzz help i need help urgently:(

I have been thinking and looking around for registration/enrollment module. I started off looking at the survey module. It had a lot of what I needed but did not allow users to edit their answers. Then I looked at the forms module (required by survey). I could build on it to make new forms, then I ran into WebForm. This one kind of looks like forms+survey, and allows a bit more (like limiting the number of replies), but still not editing an answer (patch on the work). Then there is the signup module, that is a sort of enrollment module. It allows forms to be added to it by other modules.

Apparently CVS access will not be granted for creating a similar module (but Form+Survey is very similar to WebForm). I suddenly was looking at two very similar modules, none of which had all the functionality I wanted and thinking that maybe some of the redundancy could be eliminated by having a core “form building module”. Both modules have the same idea, allow user to create forms for the Form API via web. Both have some sort of validation. Both modules store data on tables, and the generate reports.
