Hi All I am quite new to AHAH, strugling to find how it works. I referred documentation and poll module. I want 3 fields in a fieldset, *Company, Start-Date, End-Date*. I have a button "*Add More Company*", if clicked, it should add a new row having *Company, Start-Date, End-Date *dynamically. How many times user clicks, those many rows needs to be added. To get the above mentioned form, I have put the code as below. However, on button click, new rows are not adding up. Please help me to find whats the error with code.

use multi site or not?
by Pooya 11 Mar '11

11 Mar '11

Hey guys I've done a few sites using drupal but never a multi. I got this new customer who wants me to make a huge portal website for manchester united team. It's a multi language site, which contains 2 sub-sites: Manchester United and England national football team(default is manchester). after lots of talking over content and features, I found out that they need all galleries, news, menus, front-page and other features to be different for each team. This needs 2 different themes at least(each with two language rtl and ltr). here's a shot: http://016.img98.net/out.php/i75495_1.png To be honest I prefer a framework like CI for such a thing and if using drupal avoid multi-sites cause I don't have enough experience with. My question here is *what if I don't want to use multi-sites* and share some tables. Drupal's a good choice? Have you ever tried to do such a thing? any strategy? anything would help me hear rly. PS. I want to use drupal because of real good community, and the ability which makes me do this real fast(I want to end this project in less than 2month max). Also developing's much easier, they may ask for more features in like a year after site's done. I have lots of trouble these days adding features to old projects. -- Pooya Sanooei Twitter <http://twitter.com/sourcesoft> - Facebook<http://facebook.com/pooya.sanooei>- Website <http://www.javabgoo.com>

Continued Services woes
by jeff＠ayendesigns.com 07 Mar '11

07 Mar '11

After hours of searching, scouring, absorbing it was determined that there was little hope of (currently) getting past Services 2.4 and REST returning a 404 error, so I switched to xmlrpc. I have a simple script to hit my service from outside the site, fine-tuned a couple dozen times based on various recommendations, to currently be: $url = "http://localhost/mydomain/services/xmlrpc"; $ch = curl_init(); $data = 'method=my.method&id=12345&text=hello'; curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url); $response = curl_exec($ch); with $data as a string like above, I continuously receive: faultCode -32700 faultString Parse error. Request not well formed. If I change the postfields to be an array('method'=>'my.method','id'=>12345... I instead continuously receive a message that xmlrpc will only handle Post transactions. -- /I am a non sequitur.

Drupal resources (the short list) http://drupal.org/start http://acquia.com/resources http://www.lullabot.com/ http://www.lynda.com/search?q=drupal Do you want to focus on developing or theming? I recommend you pick one to start at least. It's taken me many years to be able to do both. For front end theming you need to know CSS and jQuery, and a bit of PHP and HTML. For back end developing you need to know PHP and MySQL and HTML, and a bit of CSS and jQuery. Some people think theming is easier but I know from experience they both are complex in different ways. Good tutorials for HTML CSS JavaScript jQuery PHP MySQL and more at http://w3schools.com Also, I think you should just focus on learning Drupal 7. By the time you are ready, D6 will just be used on legacy sites.
