Module development and code questions

Greetings, all.

I've got a module with some custom user 'profile' information. Using the 'Profile' module, I've set up the site so that users must enter the custom profile information when they register.

After registration, the profile information appears in the 'data' field of the users database, and can thus be accessed with $user->profile_field.

However, if I go into a user's profile and edit the information, it gets moved from the users table into the 'profile_values' table; and no longer appears in the 'data' field. Therefore, I can no longer access it.

Hey all,

I'm about to get started hosting multiple drupal sites on a GoDaddy.com account as well as some custom module development. I'm looking for an IDE (free is preferable) that:

* can sync via ftp to host root
* has PHP support
* has CVS support
* has HTML support

Was thinking Eclipse, but let me know if you have other suggestions. It's been a while but I'm excited to get back into it!

Hopefully this is an easy question. I have a custom module, I would like it to look in the theme folder of whatever theme I'm using for a template that will only be used by that function. The idea being that it would hand data to the template and each theme could render the data differently. I don't want to retheme the whole page (including layout), only the content portion.

Hi!

I want to create Distributed File Download module so each file could be downloaded from different locations. It will be very useful for drupal-based media sites for downloading and especially streaming files.

I'm not sure if this is a Drupal CVS issue or an Eclipse issue, but for my Flashnode project the CVS tag list in Eclipe has started only offering me DRUPAL-5--3-0.

I know there are more tags than this, because I recently released DRUPAL-5--3-1, and there are the previous 5 and 4.7 releases too.

cvs.drupal.org still has the tags and branches, so I thought it might be Eclipse, but the problem is only happening for this one project, so if it is Eclipse it is project specific.

Hi everybody!

I am writing a module that should act similar to PHPTemplate in path/url-processing (you know: node-21.tpl.php).
Where can I find the code-snippets/functions of PHPTemplate that handles these things? I want to inspire myself by these code-snippets ;)

Thanks!
