<div>Thanks Nancy.</div>
<div>I wanted to design/implement similar to monester, where I can handle large number of users. </div>
<div>But can I have those many users or not, not sure as of now, however it is good to have a scalable design as a starting point.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Last few months, I have been looking at Drupal, have gone through number of books.</div>
<div>I am comfortable with Drupal to some extent. Now I want to learn and implement how to store and retreive data, and what is the best efficient way when we need to deal with large amount of data.</div>
<div><br>I just created pages using webform and CCK. </div>
<div>With CCK I see</div>
<div> </div>
<div>1. Number of extra field are shown up (like Title, menu settings, input format etc) and I do not want these fields. <font color="#ff6600">Please let me know how can I stop these fields appearing.</font></div>
<div> </div>
<div>2. I wanted to have a field for resume upload, could not find the FILE field using CCK. </div>
<div>Then I enabled fileupload module, with this I can see a file upload field in page. Probably I can look at installing file field.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>3. There is a fieldset field in webform to group similar fields under one group. <font color="#ff6600">I am not aware of module which can do this if using CCK. Appreciate if you can suggest how to keep similar fields in one group.</font></div>
<div> </div>
<div>If I can overcome these issues I am pro for CCK. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Assuming I am going to use CCK, as you mentioned skillset can be indexed (using custom module), can you kindly provide more information how it can be done atleast from logic perspective.</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Regards</div>
<div>Austin.<br></div>

<div>Does even Monster have a resume for 1 out of every five people in the US? I doubt it seriously. I'm guessing that you would have to service every country in the world to get that many, and then translation would to be your biggest problem.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>If you use CCK, I believe you can get the skillset indexed for search (at the very least in a custom module). I don't know why Webform would be preferable here.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>A custom module could probably invoke PHP's zipping functions to zip going into the database and unzip it coming back out.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I see this over and over: A newbie thinks their first Drupal project should be the next Monster. I am sorry to tell you, but you won't get there. Go and focus on some smaller projects to learn Drupal. If it has to be done now, you need to hire a team, and that's big bucks.<br>
