Module development and code questions

Hi,

I have a problem with creating forms. My code (just relevant parts, as I think):

function user_gallery_menu($may_cache) {
	$items[] = array(
			'path' 		=> 	'usergallery/admin',
			'title'		=>	t('adminarea images'),
			'callback' 	=> 	'_user_gallery_admin',
			'access' 	=> 	true,
			'type' 		=> 	MENU_NORMAL_ITEM
	);	
	return $items;
}

function _user_gallery_admin() {
        $themeingstring=theme(...);
	return drupal_get_form('user_gallery_frm').$themingstring;
}

function user_gallery_frm() {
	$form=array();
	$form['#attributes'] = array("enctype" => "multipart/form-data");
	$form['image'] = array('#type' => 'file', '#title' => t('Image'), '#weight' => -3);
	$form['submit']=array('#type'=> 'submit', '#value'=>'Hochladen');
	return $form;
}

function user_gallery_frm_validate($form_id, $form_values) {
//validation
}

function user_gallery_frm_submit($form_id, $form_values) {
    drupal_set_message('submitted');
   cache_clear_all();
}

After submitting the form the first time, the message "submitted" appears as I wanted. After submitting the same form again (where I have been redirected to), no message appears. And it seems, neither the validation nor the submit-function are called. So I entertained suspicion, that the page was cached. But when I turned off caching, it is still not submiting.

I've written a reinstall script for Drupal. It is not a module and should be placed on the top directory. THIS SHOULD ONLY BE USED FOR DEVELOPMENT PURPOSES. It clears your DB and then runs the install script.

Hi,

I have 2 questions about using email though an Drupal site installed and working.
1: how can i simply send an email to an external adresse (i mean not to an authenticated users)? Is there any module that could give me a simple interface for sending mail using drupal?
2: Is there any functionable webmail module working with pop/imap/smtp protocol without needing to integrate 3rd part program like roundcubemail?

Thanks for your answer

Hi,

Please note ...I am learning to program in Drupal/PHP....and have tried getting help from posts in the forum....not much luck...

I am exploring the use of the javascript popup calendar (jscalendar) in a custom node module. I am creating a very basic module to test this. Also, I've used the readme file provided by the author of jscalendar for help.

the main functions of the module is listed below.

here's a brief description

I am able to use the pop calendar attached to the field, fromdate to select a date. It is entered in the table, exam as : 2007-07-17 13:28:06.

fieldtype of fromdate in table exam is varchar2(20).

When I view the node, I see the value of fromdate.

When I go to edit the node, the text field fromdate in the form is blank. If I use this popup calendar in a CCK nodetype, the value does appear in the textfield when the node is viewed in edit mode.

I would like the value to appear in the textfield ,fromdate when the node (that is, from my custom module)is viewed in edit mode.

I suspect it is my exam_load that may be the problem....or do I have to use exam_prepare function to set the date display format. I've tried this..not getting it to work...I'm not understanding this properly.

Any ideas on what I am doing incorrectly or not doing at all....or need to do ?

Hello Everyone,

I just started developing with Drupal last week and I'm on a project where I need to set up heirarchical taxonomy terms in this level (root to base) Country, State/Providince, City (if that tree doesn't exist) whenever a user adds a new special node that we call practitioners to the system.
