General discussion

I've been building websites for a long time.... the hard way. *Almost* every page is a physical page somewhere, and if I want to build a user system, I build it from scratch. I use libraries, template engines etc.. But my sites never get any easier to build. I'm wondering what is possible with Drupal? Here is an example site I did a while ago (not the design) and I'm rebuilding the code now. The link: Art-Care

Is it possible for a site like that to take advantage of what Drupal can do?

Thanks for any replies,

Hi all!

Is there any tool available for drupal that can import LaTeX documents as a Book for Drupal?

I can't propose to develop, but I can offer what might be a realistic wishlist for a great system. So here is my "fantasy Drupal 4.5.0":

Heres the deal,
Within each module type, I want users to be able to define if the data within that module is accessibly to anyone else. For instance:
In the blog, they could set it to "public" or "private". If it's private, they would have the option to "invite" someone to see their blog, OR a Single post of their blog.

I have a RSS feed that requires a username and password. If I enter the feed as: http://user:pass@site.com, I still receive a 401 error. Is there a modification required to the url parser in common.inc to pass the username and password values?

Could someone please point me to a web site that uses the Events module?

Just want to see an example of what it looks like.

Thank you,
Saeb
