Module development and code questions

One thing I miss in Drupal is a staging/testing function, to check new versions, modules, templates etc before putting it on the live server. So I'll try to write a module for this.

[First question: is someone already working on this?]

I'll give a outline of my plans here, hoping to get weak parts critizised and some questions answered.

Functionality of the module will be inspired by the method described in http://drupal.org/creating-drupal-test-sites

I want to be able to not only upload one image but multiple images with the same post.

Hi,

As far as i can understand about the menu iteam's visibility to a particular user, when user has permission to visit that page and it is enabled by admin, then only it is showed in menu iteam unless otherwise it is not.
But what about if i want certain menu iteams to show only to authenticated users and not to anonymous users, evenif both has permission to see the page which that menu iteam crosspond to. And to generalise this problem, what about making menu iteam visibility based on "roles".

hello, I'm trying to create a new module for drupal, but I can't find in the handbooks how drupal works.

My project isn't a simple new node type, I need the hability to insert diferents types of information, and, process it in a certain moment.

I can't understand how the functions in the module file are called, or what happens when, for example, the settings form of my module (created by the settings hook) is sent. Who cares about the information? This is applicable to any form... ok, I can create my form.... but... what happens when click the "submit" button?

Hi, and sorry if this is a FAQ, but I have not found the answer.

I want that all people can submit weblink, and this is not a problem. It works.

But I need that administrators moderate it before that the weblink is visible.

Is this possible ?

Tnx.

Hi everybody
I'm pretty new here but I installed drupal 4.7 beta last friday. I think it is a great product and I got a lot of modules working. The image module only doesn't seem to work. I can upload images (they are in my files\temp directory) but the image won't display. Is see a small "broken link image" with a red cross in it.
