Module development and code questions

I have just been told that I need to add a product catalog to a site. They don't want to sell anything, just search and display products based on certain classifications, i.e. manufacturer, industry, product category/sub-category, etc. Drupal would appear to be ideal for this but, I have searched all over and I can't seem to find a module or an example of this being done before. Is there an established catalog module, or has anyone done anything like this before?

Hi Drupalers,

I am brand new to Drupal and have a couple of questions regarding the event module.

Basically what I want to accomplish is to have a small calendar on the home page that indicates events that registered users have added. Users can click on the day and then see a detailed view of the event.

As I understood I needed the event and views modules to accomplish this.
Do I also need a calendar module to display the events in that calendar or how does this work?

How/where does Drupal convert special characters (umlauts, accents, etc..) that come with Spanish text into something useable and storable in the db? From what I can see, it happens before the node is saved, but where I do not know.

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Hello

I'd like to be able to add another tab to a node - so that it is "view", "edit", "track", "new tab".

However, I only need it for one specific node type. When I create a hook_menu() function, it applies it to all nodes, regardless of type.

Presently, my hook_menu reads:

I have a site which has disallowed the modification of certain user account fields and the "user readonly" module was quite useful in that regard:

"The module allows an administrator to disallow modification of user account/profile fields. The administrator can select which fields will be disallowed, or which fields will be allowed."

Can anyone recommend an option to replace the "user readonly" module in Drupal 5?

I have installed webform.module and it's working fine except for one item: it won't allow me to create a field for submitting attachments via the webform.

I can click the "add/file" option and go through the steps, but when I click "Done" the browser (both IE and Firefox) behaves as though it cannot connect. Eventually it generates a blank screen and nothing is changed when I navigate back to the webform.

I have no problem adding other fields to the same webform. Please let me know how I can correct this.

FYI:

Drupal 4.7.x

Thanks.
