[support] Copying HTML to drupal

[Jorge Biquez]

Hello all.

Still working on my test environment and trying to do the best with 
version 7 as is and now studying the modules available.
I have to confess that if you are new to Drupal, without previous 
experience in V6 or before, it is kind of hard to understand what do 
you need..... at least that has been my experience.

Thanks to all for all the time, I am learning a lot reading the 
comments and the experience you are sharing.

Have a great day.
