thanks a lot much
thanks a lot much appreciated. Now if you can point me to modules or tutorials, i would like
1. scan each node for image extensions eg. jpg/gif/png or mp3 or URLs and replace them with custom html tags. i am researching replacement tags but would like basic thumbnails and sounds and urls to be generated on the fly
2. how does attachment work with images?? are images displayed or linked?
in drupal terms, modules
in drupal terms, modules that scan and replace text/tags are called filters-- there's a whole category for them you can browse. One particularly flexible one you might want to look at is called, aptly enough, flexifilter.
specifically for managing image sizes, the best module is http://drupal.org/project/imagecache (much more than a filter).
regarding question 2, attached images (if you mean the core upload module) are displayed as links by default. You can use the http://drupal.org/project/inline for easier inlining of images.
there are many image handling modules you can browse in the media category.
another good place to search for modules is at http://drupalmodules.com (lists the same modules as listed here on d.o., but has a more user friendly search interface).
