hi. i am a rookie drupaller. since last week i am trying to learn drupal. i've read many articles on this site. but i couldn't understand how to modify content area.
i want to divide content area. last story as headline and the others as normal links. and some other content. something like this: http://quommunication.com/demo/news/ .
i've read almost all articles on newspaper groups (new york observer vs.) but i couldn't understand it. i've installed too many components but i can't manage them. can somebody help me.

1- which components i need?
2- how can i use them
3- or is there any articles which i've to read

note: i thougt Drupal Markup Engine is the right solution for my problem but i couldn't managed it and found no articles about this component. maybe somebody knows how tu use it

(sorry for bad english, i was in germany from years until two months ago, i've forgot to speak english :) )

use "regions" as a search term and you will find a plethora of information on this type of topic.

I can't give any specifics, because you've neglected to either mention the version of Drupal in use or tag your thread appropriatley with the version in use.

If you are using Drupal 5 the panels 2 module can be used to divide up the content area. The views module is useful for producing lists (can be a list of 1) of content in a variety of ways. You can find them both in the modules download area. Documentation for panels 2 can be found at http://drupal.org/node/201914, documentation for views at http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/views
