Hello all,

I`ve got problems with connecting via my own module with other than core database of drupal? When I connect with that database (other than core) I`ve got problems with getting back to core database of drupal.

Have anybody any solution for that problem?

Content of generated PDF file in other then english languages just don't show correctly. Any ideas?

Why is there still no slideshow module?
????
Can someone at least give me a hint as to how to filter out files with thumbnail in their name so that i can get the following script working for the mean time?

works but also shows the thumbnails....
could this serve as a start for a drupal module?

thanks
