Hello to everybody, I am new to Drupal.

I had to take over someone else's project and did not have the opportunity to learn from scratch. I had dealt with many issues so far. Instead of asking specific questions, I would like to ask if someone can help me understand how Drupal Itself works.

For example, first this file is loaded, then it calls this other one, collects information form this other one (e.g. .css)...etc.

In my specific case I am working with a customized them, which was based in Zen theme.

Do I make myself clear?

Thank you in advance for any feedback.

Long live (and prosper) to Drupalers!!!!!

Read the handbooks, especially the theme developer's guide. Drupal supports several theme engines. Zen uses phptemplate, so pay attention to that portion of the guide.

For module development, the API is documented at api.drupal.org.
