Hi. I'm searching for a CMS to start using on some sites and Drupal looks really good. Some of the sites won't really be very community based and there are some sections/pages that I need to write some custom functionality that uses forms.

On one page I'll need to have a form that uses javascript. When the form is submitted obviously I'll need a custom action to handle the form. Would something like this be easy to do with Drupal? Would you implement a module for something like this?

Also, is it easy to use Drupal's user authentication functionality in your customized code. For example I might implement a section of a site that takes some info through a form and performs a certain action based on whether or not the user is logged in and what privelidge level the user has. Can I just use Drupal's built-in user handling facilities for this?

Also, can you use more than one template per site?

TIA

Given the general nature of your question, the genral answer is yes. Read the developers handbook and the modules handbook
