If we want to roll a release candidate in two weeks (as per the discussion at DrupalCON) we need the following stuff to hit core _next_ week (I'd like to have at least one week of /internal/ testing): 1. Upgrade system changes. 2. Forms API legacy path. 3. Node revision upgrades. -- Dries Buytaert :: http://www.buytaert.net/

[drupal-devel] Is there a semantic module project on the way ?
by Sebastien Arbogast 21 Oct '05

21 Oct '05

Hi, I'm part of a French-speaking collaborative initiative to gather people and resources around the "Web 2.0" called "Projet Phénix" ( http://phenix.netbios.fr) We have begun to use Drupal as a community platform but we've come to need a customized module to create RDF semantic networks. So right now, our idea is to develop a Drupal module to do that : to create RDF vocabularies (models) and RDF instances inside Drupal. Before we start, we'd just like to make sure there's not already a similar project on its way, to which we could collaborate instead of reinventing the wheel. Hence my question : has anyone heard of a RDF structure building module for Drupal ? Thx in advance for your answers. -- Sébastien Arbogast Blog : http://www.sebastien-arbogast.com The Epseelon Project : http://www.epseelon.org Projet Phénix : http://phenix.netbios.fr

[drupal-devel] Restricting webform submissions to the authoring user?
by Aaron Stewart 20 Oct '05

20 Oct '05

Hi all, I'm trying to setup a site that is fairly form-centric using the webform module. I'd like to accomplish having seperate users fill out form data, and be able to see what they have filled out, but currently, it seems as if users can either see all submissions, or no submissions. Is it possible to set access for users to see what they have submitted , but 1 master user being able to access all the data using webforms? Thanks in advance, Aaron

[drupal-devel] List of currently maintained modules
by Joe Murray 20 Oct '05

20 Oct '05

It would be quite useful to us newbies to know in some systematic way, like on the Modules download page or details page for each module, which ones are actively maintained and which abandoned. Where can one find the dated list of patches affecting each module?

[drupal-devel] AJAX selects, with images--and documentation
by Nedjo Rogers 20 Oct '05

20 Oct '05

I'm working on a module that need AJAX-populated selects with images. An example might be: user selects from a list of his/her posts. A second select is then populated with a list of users who have commented on that post, including their images. Anyone working on this sort of functionality? Existing examples? More generally, in core we've got a great start and some good examples to work from. It would be great to pull this together so we've got tutorials on how to leverage and expand on the AJAX approaches. Is there documentation on implementing AJAX in Drupal modules? If not, any volunteers? Thanks, Nedjo

A nicer solution would imo be: /** * Return a themed list of items. * * @param $items * An array of items to be displayed in the list. * @param $title * The (optional) title of the list. * @return * A string containing the list output. */ function theme_item_list($items = array(), $title = NULL, $type = 'unordered list') { $class = str_replace('-', ' ', $type); if (isset($items)) { switch($type) { case 'unordered list': $list .= '<ul>'; foreach ($items as $item) { $list .= '<li>'. $item .'</li>'; } $list .= '</ul>'; case 'ordered list': $list .= '<ol>'; foreach ($items as $item) { $list .= '<li>'. $item .'</li>'; } $list .= '</ol>'; case 'definition list': $list .= '<dl>'; foreach ($items as $item) { $list .= '<dt>'. $item .'</dt>'; } $list .= '</dl>'; } if (isset($title)) { $output .= '<h3>'. $title .'</h3>'; } $output .= '<div class="'. $class .'">'. $list .'</div>'; return $output; } Isn't something like this nicer? And, easier to use? Steef --- Stefan Nagtegaal Drupal-Devel(a)iStyledThis.nl Drupal Development Mailinglist
