when I need this kind of integration is I do develop a small custom module that
goes with me theme to provide the hooks that I need. Then, if I need infromation
passed to the theme, I call those functions int he theme variables hook in
template.php within the theme. You can get some pretty slick integegrationi
between the module and theme layers going that way. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

It really only takes making an .info file (with a few lines) and a single
.module file with just the one hook_form_alter function in it. There's
nothing else required. </FONT></SPAN></DIV><BR>
