A few questions on ecommerce module

I'm trying to set up a shopping cart on a Drupal site, and I'm having a few difficulties. I'm quite familiar with e-commerce in general, having used osCommerce, ZenCart, Xcart, and others quite extensively, but I'm not wrapping my head around this one for some reason. I'm also a Drupal newbie, but not a CMS newbie.

Anyway...

1. I'd like to customize the /product page layout. I think I need to create a .tpl file in my theme for this, correct? How do I get the proper variables, and how do I tell it where to look for such a thing?

2. It seems to not automatically go to SSL during checkout, which seems odd to me. I'm not sure how to do this - I tried the securepages module, but as soon as I turned it on, the /admin site broke completely until I removed the module file.

3. Does anyone have any guidance on creating a payment module? I have the exact code that I use elsewhere to post a donation transaction from a form to our processor's website, but I'd like to integrate this into the Drupal structure properly. I tried using eway as a baseline, but when I do that all I get is a line in the checkout that says "Credit Card", but no place to enter one. Not that I'd want to anyway, without SSL, but...

default category autoresponder

Hi,

I've tried to change the selected index of the categories in the autoresponder block without success. I can alter which option is selected by default with '#default_value' but this causes auto responder to send emails without content.

Does anyone have an idea how I can choose which category is selected by default?

thanks in advance

Problem: breadcrumb linking to /node

I just noticed on some of my sites that the "Home" link in the breadcrumbs links to /node...

For example, the breadcrumb on this page: http://www.teachenglishinasia.net/blog doesn't link to the home page, it links to /node.

I've set up 301 redirects to to home page to prevent duplicate content, -- e.g., http://www.teachenglishinasia.net/ -- but how do I remove the /node links in the breadcrumbs?

Unwanted HTML Tags in Comment form

Hi,

Why are these tags appearing in the Comment field of the comment form?:

Thanks!

way to give author access to his/her moderated content?

Hi,

I've created a simple content type called 'entry.' All authenticated users have the ability to create an 'entry.' All entries when submitted are held in moderation and are not published until approved; some content does not get approved. I have given all authenticated users access control to edit own entries. I am using modr8 module and have set up workflow/actions that allow special users to post comment on an entry which sends automated message to author with a node link to original 'entry' and comment.

"Page Not Found" - caching problems?

I have notice that sometimes my drupal installation (5.1) has some "strange behaviour".
Simptoms: every page shows drupal "Page Not Found" msg, without navigation at all, and I can't login too.
After deleting all rows form MySQL tables "cache_menu" and "cache" everything work fine.

Also, one of my drupal 4.7.6 installations has similar problem, but there just primary links sometimes "disapear".

Notice: drupal caching is disabled in both cases.

Any ideas?
