Converting to Drupal

The title basically says it all.. I got a content type that randomly displays 3 photos on the homepage, by using Views. The problem is that after a couple of refreshes, the content type is cached, and so are the photos. That results in that the photos arent loaded anymore, except for the 3 that are cached.

How I can stop caching of a certain content type? The view is not cached, but when the normal site caching is switched on, the problem returns.

Thanks for any help!

This is one of the strangest things I've seen, and I'm having trouble articulating it perfectly, so please bear with me.

I'm preparing one of my sites to go live and am noticing that one of my blocks is displaying oddly. It is a view displayed as a block which renders as a table. I've used CSS to align the table cells, and it looked and worked perfectly on my testing server.

When I moved it to my production host, several of the cells/rows display out of alignment, which I assumed was an issue with my CSS. But here are some odd things:

I am migrating a very basic D5 site to a complex D6 site (e.g. from using Pages/Stories to multiple CCK types and rich taxonomy).
I am using pathauto to generate nice names for nodes, which creates a 301 redirect.
Due to the migration, I am changing most of the URLs, using the Path Redirect module, which is gong to mean yet another 301.

Is it possible that these multiple 301s (for most of my about 250 pages) will affect my position in the SERPs?

Please excuse the long post. I really don't know what I'm doing so I am trying to explain everything that I did.

I'm a volunteer for a charity in London that works with Middle Eastern women facing violence in the family (www.ikwro.org.uk). For some time we've been running a campaign site on the issue of so-called 'honour' killings (www.stophonourkillings.com). I set this up in 2004 using Dragonfly CMS because at the time I felt this was the only solution to the high level of multilingual support I needed, with being UTF-8. I became more and more dissatisfied with DF particularly since the site was hacked over the summer and once the kids were back in school I resolved to move to Drupal.

Hi

I started developing a site in Drupal 6 in server www.000webhost.com. Now I want to move it om my hard drive and finish it. After download and installing Apache2triad I Import my database and changed fallowing setting in settings.php:

$db_url = 'mysql://a3572056:mypasword@magdamaz.comlu.com/a3572056_data';

to:

$db_url = 'mysql://root:mypasword@localhost/a3572056_data';

And when i tried to enter my site i get something like this:

Hi,

I'm trying to get an extremely hierarchical site into Drupal with several custom content types. I was wondering if primary links were the best way to impose a hierarchy _and_ retrieve hierarchical data (the path to a particular node or view, for instance) without forcing everything to be a Book page? Or is there a better way?
