Module development and code questions

Hi there

I'm essentially a newbie to drupal and cms's in general. I've been developing a small website for our local church and wanted to upload some mp3 files that had been recorded.

All the main text files and images are uploading just fine, but when I try to upload an mp3 I'm getting database errors as listed below:

• user warning: Table 'cmsdb.bsjaudio_metadata' doesn't exist query: SELECT DISTINCT a.value FROM bsjaudio_metadata a WHERE a.tag = 'artist' AND LOWER(a.value) LIKE LOWER('test%') ORDER BY a.value LIMIT 0, 10 in /home/md93/public_html/bsj/drupal-5.1/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 172.
• The selected file could not be copied, because no file by that name exists. Please check that you supplied the correct filename.
• user warning: Table 'cmsdb.bsjaudio_file' doesn't exist query: INSERT INTO bsjaudio_file (vid, origname, filename, filepath, filemime, filesize) VALUES (46, '13gaelic blessing.mp3', '13gaelic blessing_1.mp3', 'files/audio/13gaelic blessing_1.mp3', 'audio/mpeg', 1494121) in /home/md93/public_html/bsj/drupal-5.1/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 172.

Hi there,
I am trying to figure out how to personalise the taxonomy_browser form, and specifically hot to get checkboxes instead of select lists for some categories (not all of them).
Any hint is much appreciated.

Hi,
I am new to module development .I am building a module which has a form in the block. i need that form values (data in the form elements ) for further processing how can i get that data ? i tried to use $_GET as in php but no use please can anyone help me
thanks in advance .

I notice that a lot of modules add their own "administer" permission setting - to name just two examples of this, creativecommons and dhtml_menu both have a permission titled "administer [module] configuration", which allows access to their admin pages.

Is there a good reason for this approach, rather than sticking with the core "administer site configuration", which allows access to the whole rest of the admin panel?

A specific administration setting is essential for some things, especially content management or settings that will require periodic maintenance - allowing you to delegate these tasks to moderators - but I'm finding it hard to imagine that any admin would be specifically enabled to change the highly specific settings of a certain module, which likely need to be changed only once or twice for the whole site anyway.

hi drupal community,

i have convert the registerprofile module to 5.1.
i am using cck to create the field. i have used
"group" option to "Display in group:"

but while i register for new user than, the data are inserted to only those field which are not defined in the group.

i.e. content-type:article-blogger
field:
article-title - no group
article-img - articledetailgroup
article-information - articledetailgroup

hi drupal-community

i am using drupal5.1
i am developing an application.
in this application there is a req. for the "user role selection".

so the solution is req for "user can select only few role".

i.e.
there are 4 roles
role1,role2,role3,role4

there is and admin who can give a user role.
now if user is type of role1, than he can select another role-2 from his, myaccount/profile page.

so role1 user have access to change/select the few roles(not all).

provide the suggestion for these.

thank you
