Drupal Modules

Weblinks Block or Views?

I'm using the great weblinks module, having switched from the links package.
I've set-up the weblink blocks, but there are two ways in which it's not as good as a view:
1) I can't add the group description to the block
2) The title doesn't link to the weblink page
Is there a way to do the second of these, in particular?
Of course, I could just use a view, but it's kinda reinventing the wheel and comes with its own limitations as well.

video solutions/dynamic playlist/flashvars

I am attempting to provide a video solution (video player, dynamic playlist) for a website using Drupal 6.x using the flashnode module. The solution I am implementing is an Actionscript 3 player as provided by http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/video_playlist.html
I installed the directory in "/sites/default/files/" and the finally dir structure is "/sites/default/files/VideoPlaylist/" I then created a flash node and uploaded the VideoPlaylist.swf and added "/sites/default/files/VideoPlaylist/" to the 'Base' option in 'Advanced flash node options'
The result can be found at http://thegumbofamily.com/content/flash-test
As you can see, the basic structure of the player is loading - the tilelist, thumbnails and the player - but the movies won't play.
Since the xml file seems to load correctly, I don't think it is a path problem.
I also then installed swftools module, because I had read somewhere that flashnode can't handle flv files - but I haven't done anything with swftools. And the flvs still won't play. (btw- does flashnode support mp4??)
My hunch is that I need to add something to the 'Flashvars' or 'Parameters' options in the 'Advanced flash node options'
Although I am familiar with Actionscript 3 and can make sense of the adobe solution, I am at a loss re: Flashvars and Parameter settings as required by Drupal.

create custom menu in custom block using a module

Hi everybody,
I've studied various documents and some examples but I can't figure how to create a menu with submenus in my custom block.
Here is what I want to do.
I've created a module (lets call it "mymodule") that creates pages to connect to a database. I've already create a block with the mymodule_block() hook. Now I want to add a menu and submenus to this block.
I already used the mymodule_menu() hook to link drupal paths to my page-creating routines. But how do I create a menu to fire the routines by clicking on the menu entries. How do I tell the mymodule_menu() hook to create the menu in the block I've created.

Porting module from one CMS to Drupal

For the last 4 months I have been developing my website and of course throughout this period I have gone through a number of changes. In the beginning I started with a static HTML design but later changed it to dynamic and just use the initial design much as an outline.
After making the switch to dynamic, I then started the big debate of Joomla or Drupal. On one side of the table we have a large support community with fairly consistent documentation (Joomla) whereas on the other side as far as I can see we have plenty of documentation but almost no support. All over the place I see people asking for help, only to have their questions blown off or completely ignored as if Drupal was a protected CMS that would require you to pay $100/mo for any support.

RSS merge

Is there a module that will enable me to merge multiple RSS feeds into one? I want to make a page that combines news from different RSS sources on to just one page.

Links Package clashing with Taxonomy?

I've only just installed the Links package, so it's possible that I'm using it incorrectly. However, at the moment it seems to be clashing with taxonomy.
I've set Links so that the node titles go direct to the link, rather than going to the node page itself. However, if I then give the weblink a taxonomy term, the link - on the taxonomy page - won't work. So, it's trying to link to addresses like:
http://....co.uk/taxonomy/term/links/goto/26/15/links_weblink - which is a page not found, rather than:

Set default value of comments (other module) in my own content type

Hi,
I've been looking around but I haven't found answer to my problem. I'm creating simple module which handles news on the website. The items of news are special content types giving editors some extra abilities and automation.
The problem is that when I install the module, it defines default value for comments to "enabled write/read" but I would rather like it to be "disabled".
Please help me, how can I handle this simple problem?
Thanks

Navigation menu & permissions

Hello,
I would like to let appear options in my navigation menu only in accordance to the permission level of the user.
For example:
-For logged in user with permission level 2, the navigation menu will include 10 options and provide access to most part of the site.
-For logged in user with permission level 1, the navigation menu will include only 2 options and provide only restricted access to the site.
How can I do that? Is there an easy way or do I need to write a module for it?
Thanks.

creating simple forms in drupal

Hi All,
How do I create a simple form in Drupal 5 that can do a submit using GET ( not POST )? I have a view that is used to search for nodes but I want to create multiple forms ( with a different set of parameters to search this view ). I could use the filter from the View as one form using the views filter block (http://drupal.org/project/views_filterblock).
I could create the form in HTML and store the code in a block but would like to utilize Drupal form generation and validation capabilities for this if possible.
I believe this will help while theming the website also.

check_markup -- remove ALL markup?

How can I remove ALL markup (including a', b's, em's, etc)? check_markup uses filter_xss, passing in a list of cosure tags -- but I can't specify that list myself using check_markup.
other words, I have <em><a href='x'>Whatever</a></em>, and I want the output to juts be Whatever; however, using check_markup($str,FILTER_HTML_STRIP) still yields the original. There a diff. function I should be using?
