Module development and code questions

Over at http://www.reblog.org they have a wonderful aggregator called refeed that is being used as a reblogger tool. There is a reblog plugin for a few popular blogging tools like Wordpress, Movable Type, etc.

Hi,
search module works good, but when I try to find some text with slash (for example: 30/05/2005) it will make error:

Not Found
The requested URL /gauranga/search/node/30/05/05 was not found on this server.

I tryed to search also here on drupal.org but it is same error.
It is possible to repair this error in .htaccess file or I must change code in search module?

Hi,

I've built a node module and i was wondering if there is a way to pass parameters to the module before the form is shown.
e.g. is it possible to do something like: http://example.com/node/add/mynodetype/23/56 so that 23 and 56 are 2 parameter values that can be used in the form (e.g. as hidden fields)

greets,

Hi guys,

I'm struggling with this problem for over a week now, so I think it's the time to ask some help.

I created a form with an upload field in it. Therefor I used the function form_file(t('Archive'), 'archive', 70, '', TRUE); which displays the field I expected nicely. Now the problem is, when I browse to a local file on my computer and try uploading it to the server using the submit button, nothing happens. More specific I can't find the file anywhere on the server. So the question is, how do you handle such an upload after the submit button was hit?

I know the external links have been discussed many times, but it always comes down to administator/designer choice what is best for users. Yes, (the experienced one) can open the link in a new window/tab. Still, I believe it would be a great feature to have a block with a checkbox "Open external links in a new window". Unfortunately I don't have the skills to do it myself.

I am developing a module (using drupal 4.6) to track schedules and results for baseball games. I plan to create a new table that has one record for each game with all schedule and scoring information. I thought that perhaps there would be a hook_firstrun or hook_setup or something, but only found hook_init, which isn't related to what I'm doing.
