I've updated the example module to use the hook_form_alter() instead of
hook_nodeapi(). 


Comments?

type is not set always in the form -- form_alter is called for all
forms.

chx, i thought the comment made it clear that it was only set on forms
that dealt with nodes... or are you saying that i'll throw
warning/notices because that value isn't set?

yes you will see core form_alters for more

chx, I'm sorry I don't understand what your saying. What exactly is the
problem with the given code and what should be changed?

open menu.module and check menu_form_alter

set. comments?

+1? 


See, I don't know if this works or not. Trying to learn, a task made
far more difficult when official documentation that is presented as
current is out-of-date.
