[drupal-support] Secondary submit form
by Kobus Myburgh 29 Sep '05

29 Sep '05

Hi, I am busy writing a module to do the following: 1. Administrator creates a topic that invites entries on the topic, e.g. 'Name your most embarrassing moment'. He then sets the closing date for the topic to some date in the future. 2. If the closing date is still not reached, a link is placed underneath the node (in this case called topic). This is working correctly depending on the value of 'topicopen'. 3. If the visitor clicks on 'submit entry' link, it must open up a form that accepts this visitor's 'most embarrassing moment' and associates it with the topic by means of $node->nid. 4. While this topic is open, the visitor can go back and edit his entry over and over if he likes. Any other visitor can do the same to his own individual topic, but may not see another visitor's reply. I am at a loss at how to do this - do I need two modules? Can I do it in one module? I assume this would be similar to comment.module, but it is way too advanced for my Drupal coding skills, so I am unsure of how to proceed. I like to learn new things myself, and I tried this, but I couldn't get this working. I believe the link should be something like: submission/x/y, where x has to be the $node->nid for association, and y the $user->uid, to ensure that the correct user ID can add/edit/view only his own entry. If this is indeed the correct approach, how do I go about implementing this? Anybody care to give me a sample code snippet or some more info? Any help would be greatly appreciated. TIA, Kobus

Second paragraph here: http://drupal.org/node/27367 There are several forum posts about this subject, some very heated :) Blue Marine and PushButton validate and they are core theme's. Presentation of data is largly seperated form the theme. Where there are a few cases left and some contrib modules that muck it up, active work is going to on to continue getting presentaiton out of Drupal itself and relagating it to the theme only -sp > -----Original Message----- > From: drupal-support-bounces(a)drupal.org > [mailto:drupal-support-bounces@drupal.org] On Behalf Of Martin > Sent: Tuesday, September 27, 2005 9:49 PM > To: drupal-support(a)drupal.org > Subject: [drupal-support] http://drupal.org/ - > failshttp://validator.w3.org/ validation > > Hello. > > I'm looking for a CMS. > > I was surprised that the drupal web site failed w3c.org > validation with 9 errors. > > Easily fixed ??? > > -- > [ Drupal support list | http://lists.drupal.org/ ] > >

[drupal-support] REPOST: Error in DB during cron run
by Peter Apockotos 26 Sep '05

26 Sep '05

Any ideas why I am suddenly getting this error in the db? You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '1 AND uid != 0' at line 1 query: SELECT * FROM user WHERE uid IN 1 AND uid != 0 in /home/apockot/public_html/includes/ database.mysql.inc on line 66. Missing argument 2 for variable_get() in /home/apockot/public_html/ includes/bootstrap.inc on line 152. This error has since disappeared. Any ideas what may have caused it? -- [ Drupal support list | http://lists.drupal.org/ ]

[drupal-support] Firefox display problem in BlueMarine Theme
by Skip Taylor 25 Sep '05

25 Sep '05

I'm using the xtemplate based bluemarine theme on Drupal 4.6.3 and have a problem displaying a node and its comments. On the site all navigation is at the right hand edge of the screen. Only in Firefox does the right hand edge of the screen (navigation menus) move off screen requiring the use of scroll bars. This doesn't happen in IE, Opera or IE derivative browsers. The page is at http://www.speechcomputing.com/node/390 for anyone to look at. Why just Firefox? I've noticed this anytime the number of comments grows large. Ideas how to fix it?

[drupal-support] favicon appearas adress bar but not in tab?
by Erik Steffl 24 Sep '05

24 Sep '05

website in question: http://kamaze.zasran.com/ I have placed a custom favicon.ico into the root of the web site directory and it is properly displayed when I go to the website (tested with firefox). However if I open more tabs the tabs do not have favicon (other website have favicons in tabs, tried google, slashdot). If I switch between tabs and get back to http://kamaze.zasran.com/ the favicon is gone, I have to reload the page for favicon to appear again. I looked at the source of the main page and the head element does not mention favicon. Any ideas? (I searched the drupal site, googled, searched the all the installed drupal files for 'favicon' but found nothing relevant) my system: debian unstable drupal 4.5.5, default blue marine theme mysql 4.0.24 php 4.4.0 TIA erik
