Hello everybody,

as a newbie to drupal I'd like to integrate a small script of mine into a drupal installation as a custom module.

My very simple script takes some input from user, does some string manipulation to that input and then shows the result into the same page. My script works nice and well as a "standalone" php script but I have no idea how to 'transform' it to a custom drupal module.

Hi, I've been searching a lot of posts in this forum. It seems that lot of people having the same difficulties to access drupal session from outside script.

What I would like to do is to integrate the session from drupal into other script, so user don't need to login to enter that script.

Isn't there any official way to do this? to share session?

I found this is difficult, since drupal stores all session data into database, which is good for security though.

Lets consider on php from which accept event_title and event_description . I want insert this data in my database. But to insert data I have to submit form. Now I have problem that how to submit form and specify action when I created page.

harish.

I'm having a devil of a time coming up with the appropriate paths for two tasks:

1. I need to get the path/URL to the current module. I want to serve an image in the module's directory.
2. I need to find the absolute path to an image being served in a page. Given the page text, I need to figure out where the image is on the file system, so I can find it's dimensions. I could get the base URL and the I have the URL path to the image (e.g. themes/mytheme/myimage.png), but how do I translate this into "/absolute/path/to/drupal/themes/mytheme/myimage.png)
