Module development and code questions

hi,
i've managed to make afew changes to the image module [i'm using 4.6] using a combination of patches posted here, but there's still afew things i'd like to do and i was wondering if anyone out there could help.

1. Change the image uploads folder on a regular basis but allow the previously uploaded images to stay where they are. so basically allow me to start new folders when the current images folder is becoming full up. i think that makes sense??

Been searching for hours... how in the heck do I display 3 select boxes all on the same line???
Here's my code:

$form1 .= form_select(t('AM#1'), 'am1', $ams->amid1, $options, null, 0, false, false); 
$form1 .= form_select(t('AM#2'), 'am2', $ams->amid2, $options, null, 0, false, false);
$form1 .= form_select(t('AM#3'), 'am3', $ams->amid3, $options, null, 0, false, false);

Before you say

I have some very long node titles and as such when using a book menu block to display the links, the block has to be ridiculously wide if i want to avoid wrapping text over 2 or 3 lines

If i wanted to add the option of a node link text (instead of using the actual node title for the link text), would i need a custom module for this?

so eg:

every node edit page form would have the following fields:

node title
node path alias
node menu link text
.
.
body
.
etc..

Hi folks,

I apologize in advance if this question has been asked, but I can't seem to find a 4.7 version of TinyMCE, although the module page refers to 4.7 features.

Please advise.

Thanks!

I am currently trying to write a module to let me add great big polylines to google maps. I have a module I am calling the route module and when you choose Add New Route from the content menu it has a google map in the add node form which allows you to add waypoints to define your route.

Is there a way to keep tinymce from stripping away HTML tags that i want as default code embedded in a page. In flexinodes that i have created that have default html such as pay pal buttons or links to other pages the tinymce editor strips away all the tags.

I checked the tinymce documentation and i see that there are ways to set the configuration but i don't know where in the tinymce drupal module to set the configuration options.
