Module development and code questions

Hello All,

Please tell me how can i add the validation to the "first name" field that first letter should not be spaces, should not contain the special char, and much more.

For "Password" field, it should be in form of asterisk, and "password" and "Re-type password" should be same.

Please help.

I have installed the PHP5.x, MySQL 5.X, Drupal 5.x and Apache 2.X

I have just been trying to upgrade URL Replace Filter to version 5.x, but I have run into some trouble, and a few minutes help from an old hand might be able to solve my problem. I have posted my results and my code here: http://drupal.org/node/127952

The module is pretty small, so it shouldn't take too long to check out.

I’ve got a (slightly) improved DAV Module for Drupal working.

Download it here (webdav.zip, 40kB).

This a modified version of the code that used to be found here: http://artisan.karma-lab.net/node/49

What’s new:

I made a module that will enable our employees to submit a daily report. There are two options. To submit and to view a report. Submit report is already done but my view report is not yet. My problem is how can i view the report that is submitted. My module is not a node module.

Thanks for everyone who is willing to help.

I apologize if this isn't in the right place.

Here is my environment: I am running a site with a Drupal 5.2 front end. I chose to supplement it with a MediaWiki install (the Drupal wiki setup did not please me well enough). Separate databases, same server. What I want, is one registration system. I don't mind if they have to log in both places, I just prefer they not have to register twice, and can use the same login both places.

Hi, I'm new to Drupal. What is the best way to include a php file so that all modules have access to its functions? Say that I have a file my_utility.php that contains many utility functions that my modules can use, how to make it so that all my modules can use these functions? One way I figured is to put it in includes/, and change common.inc's bootstrap function to load it. This works fine, but I'm not sure whether that's the best way, although it does have the benefit that I don't need to call require_once is my modules.
