eDrupal - Indian Drupal

My website is powered by Drupal 5.7. Recently i reworked on its frontpage for better readiblity of data.

I was trying to remove "Read more" links from frontpage. After analyzing, i found that i could change in the module itself - but this will be overridden once i update my module.

I was looking for alternative solution to this - and while searching in Drupal.org forums, i came across
http://drupal.org/node/244182#comment-881076

I used this code to hide links on frontpage.

// Hide links - such as email to friend, mark as spam, etc
.links { display: none }

Hi,

Recently i was working on a project that involved AJAX based form validation. I tried to use an existing module name
AJAX Forms Validation - but this module was not functional.

After many workaround, i finally got it working as per my requirement.

Please read the workaround at http://drupal.org/node/254043

If you are looking for similar solution / ideas - you can check that.

Vinay

One of the hottest subjects in Web technologies, these days, is finding effective ways to exploit Collective Intelligence of masses. Most everybody has heard of the so-called Web 2.0 and hundreds of different definitions of what it is or is not. In simple terms, Web 2.0 is a phenomena characterized by vastly increased direct participation of the user community in content authoring, mostly through blogs and discussions around blogs. Web 2.0 has brought us to a state where more and better content is freely available online than ever before.

There is a great tutorial located at http://www.nicklewis.org/node/845.

Though this article was meant for drupal 4.7 - but you can use it for 5.7 too except few changes, such as
-> Use 'drupal_render' in place of 'form_render'
-> Change (if needed) modules/user/user.css for styling this horizontal login box.

This tutorial covers the installation of Drupal 6.

The video goes through each of the steps needed to properly setup Drupal including downloading, database set up and running the installation script. It also covers some common roadblocks and how to deal with them.
