Re: [development] associate dates to nodes

even after you create your 'rooms' content type and 'reservation' content type you will need custom code to validate that no reservations conflict and probably some custom Views for displaying listings of available rooms, today's reservations, and so on. Victor Kane wrote:

The short answer is that you want to create special content types (reservation), and then, using the content construction kit module (cck: http://drupal.org/project/cck) add the appropriate fields, including the date field, supported by the date field module ( http://drupal.org/project/date).

Read as much of the documentation as you can to get started, this opens up a whole new world, and is what sets drupal apart as a CMS.
