http://drupal.org/project/views<BR><BR>Awesome module. It lets you
custom-build a list of nodes according to a wide <BR>range of configurable
parameters. <BR><BR>CCK: http://drupal.org/project/cck<BR><BR>Drupal 5+
includes the ability to create new "basic" node types through the <BR>admin. A
basic node type has a title and a body (body is disableable.) CCK <BR>lets you
add additional fields to any given node type. Those fields are <BR>provided by
separate, dedicated modules. The CCK package includes several <BR>(textfield,
number, nodereference, etc.), and there's a huge number of others
<BR>available in contrib. <BR><BR>The usually best way to map out the site is
to first decide what your node <BR>types look like, conceptually. Then figure
out the fields they need. Then <BR>set those up using CCK. Then determine what
lists of nodes you'll want, and <BR>build those using Views. At least that's
the usual method I use. :-)<BR><BR>On Wednesday 30 May 2007, Bruce Whealton
