Post installation

Hi,

I'm trying to create a form within a static page, using type=php. Now I found out that this is no problem at all, when the Node link tags are disabled, but when enabling them, the form output is rendered in a wrong way:

$form = form_textfield( t("Name"), "name", "$name", 50, 64 );

is rendered as:

<input type="text" maxlength="64" class="form-text" name="edit<a href="/?=name" >name</a>" size="50" value="" />

I am using Drupal 4.3.2, don't know if this is fixed in the cvs version. Hope someone can help me out ...

Hi. I opened the option to fill in MSN, ICQ no. etc. in the user profile. This raises the issue that (unless I did soemthing wrong), ano. users (and spambots) get access to the e-mails address, (MSN id.) of my users (through the 'new users' block, and potentially other entries). How do I get around this? There is no way to handle 'new users' block in the admin section, right? I considered to disallow 'access content' and then allow the content, I want ano. users to see, but not all content can be allowed individually?

I have an installation where Drupal is in a directory below the document root (apache 1.3?- freebsd) How do I get past the standard index.html of apache to "redirect" to /drupal/index.php? All the while being able to link to and use other subdirectories on this site from within drupal.[I tried simply changing the apache document root but it had problems going to other ap directories.] Also need robots to follow.

Thanks,
Joe

Lets consider if a drupal user wants to move web hosts, and during this transisitonal period, the user didn't want to allow new users because their db backup was already made, and they didn't want users who registered during this transitional period to not be in the db at the new host. How can I disable account creation?

Though avatars are uploaded correctly, and displayed in the user settings, they do not seem to be displayed on generated webpages, in comments and the like. I am using the xtemplate theme. Is this simply not supported in this theme, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Frodo

can i create seperate sections within drupal as a whole? i'd like to setup a newspaper style site... say a FRONT PAGE - with its own syndicated news... then within the navagation menu i'd like to have links to other sections - like a sports section, and a local news section? with each section possessing the ability for users to publish 'stories' to this sections FRONT PAGE?
