Module development and code questions

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to discover whether I can use an existing module as is, modify one, or whether I need to start from scratch. A company I'm doing some work for is using several Drupal sites for their Intranets, documentation, and even trouble tracking. Now, they'd like to unleash one of these sites on a customer [ insert appropriate smiley here ].

Each customer has potentially several hundred vendors. Each vendor, aside from being able to access public documents on the intranet, needs to be able to view a small handful of reports, updated daily. Given that there will be potentially hundreds of vendors on a site, it would be great if these documents could be keyed by the user's Drupal ID. They log in, see a half a dozen links to consistently named nodes (or records), but no one else can, except the 'super-vendor' who can see all of their vendors' records as well.

Like this :

Vendor1 can see vendor1-report1, vendor1-report2, vendor1-report3
Vendor 2 can see vendor2-report2, vendor2-report2, vendor3-report3
. . . you get the idea.
SuperVendor1 can see everything Vendor1 and Vendor2 can see.

Issues I see are as follows.

- The reports would likely have to be inserted into the appropriate node via a command line SQL update (this part pretty much has to happen in the background).
- I'm guessing the reports would have to be stored with the username as part of the key.

I have installed fckedito, in admin when I open a page for edit it work;
if I insert an image or change color at text it work;
but how I exit from edit mode I not see no one formatting;
if I return in edit mode I see the previous formatting (image and color)

I found this entry in my logs (page not found);

http://www.mysite.com/guestbook++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Result:+%E8%F1%EF%EE%EB%FC%E7%F3%E5%EC+%EF%F0%EE%EA%F1%E8+218.

Which when clicked shows a worrying;

Warning: Illegal mix of collations (latin1_swedish_ci,IMPLICIT) and (utf8_general_ci,COERCIBLE) for operation '=' query: SELECT src FROM url_alias WHERE dst = 'guestbook Result: ���������� ������ 218.' in /var/www/localhost/htdocs/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 121

Hi,

I am working on a patch for the single signon module, and i need a way to determine if the page currently served is a feed...

Anyone knows how to do it?

Thanks

Scenario: learning form API. Built myself a nice form with a list of aggregator items, with associated checkboxes. I click some checkboxes, hit submit. Now I want to : do some processing on the checked items (I think I got that right), and then rebuild a form with fields resulting from this processing.

All multiform docs I found were for FAPI 1.0 and 4.7.x. Not sure of how one would do that in 5.x.

Hello,

I have a custom form element that I want to save in an external database table.

function hook_form(&$node) {
  $form['thumbs']['radios'] = array(
    '#type' => 'radios',
    '#options' => array(
   			1 => 'One',
   			2 => 'Two',
   			3 => 'Three'),
    '#default_value' => 1
    );
}

I would like to know which hook I can use to read the custom form data, and the correct syntax for accessing the '$form['thumb']['radios']' value.

Cheers,

Neal
