Hello. the things are simple.
We are using already the Drupal system and there is already a module named tablemanager wich covers 99% of our needs. downloadable on http://drupal.org/project/tablemanager at "view all releases" - version 6**** dev
Please image urself this situation:
Client X demands in our website that an action to be made by us (for example call 6 people) for that we will have a table with rows of such demands, managed with the tablemanager module.
Columns that we need are:
1. id (automatically added, autoincrement) - to implement its display
2. client (a userlist dropdown from a specific drupal group ex id 5)
3. demand (a simple text box where he demands what he needs)
4. assigned person (a userlist dropdown from a specific drupal group ex id6-staff)
5. procent progress of the task.
6. extra details (simple text)
7. added-by (author of the row)
almoust everything that you see here is managed already by that module. BUT it does manage atm only 7 field types: numbers,email,url,text,choices(dropdown) and the graphic bar procent)
what we need to do is: to add 2 more types of validations. 1. the userlist dropdown and 2. the username who created the row data
the userlist dropdown In drupal is simple api call for a specific group. also for the username to display, it is already stored in tablemanager_data at collumd uid ( $user->uid ) .. we need his $user->name)
there is just few lines of codes, for someone who knows drupal's basic api should be very easy to do it. and i am ok for having the results of this work public on the tablemanager project page.
thank you for a fast replay with ur price. Ciprian Oancia
Btw, there is a similar amazing module wich i am curently forced to use, its named dynamicdata and it can be found on xaraya cms. it can browse any db and create a form or display any sql in order to update it, to add more collumns and also a much more advanced user type fields and user data source.
I would be happly give a donation to someone who could port it to Drupal, it will boost drupal a lot.
thx

Done - actually took four
Done - actually took four whole minutes ;o)
As its dev you won't see the updated package on Drupal.org until tomorrow morning I'd have thought? The packaging script doesn't run very often for development branches.

testing tablemanager
it is amazing what you can actually do with such module as tablemanager. any idea how can i format the 'selection choices' personal links when you create a new row inside a table so the dropdownmenu displays the links their right format or at least plain text? it displays well at table-display :)
thank you!!!

Sorry I've not been available
Sorry I've not been available for the last few days, please could you elaborate on this? I don't use the selection boxes myself and so am not aware of any issues?
Thanks,
Pobster
