Module development and code questions

This may sound stupid, but I can't figure out a way to have the module output at the top of each node, next to the title or something. Preferrably if it's possible I would like to call a theme_function() there.

I'm sure it's somewhere in the code, but I can't find it.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I have a few heavily modified modules which I want to load first. How do I control the load order?

4.5 had module_load function..which could have been useful but is not there in 4.6. There doesnt seem to be a function that will let me load a specific module first.''

Also, this probably isnt the most efficient way to do it anyway, if I want 3 or 4 modules to be loaded first.

Specifically, a contributed module 'evaluation.module' tries to print a theme even before the taxonomy_theme, taxonomy_menu etc modules are invoked.

Regards,

V

Would someone please look into this issue? Thank you.

I would like to write a routine to browse a directory on the server and return the name of a selected file.

Here is my attempt so far:

Is there some documentation somewhere explaining how to create a new flexinode field type? It's clear that there is a naming convention, e.g., "field_typename.inc", but I haven't been able to find any documentation explaining what all the functions are supposed to do inside the .inc file.

I'm trying to create a settings variable for a module I'm working on... It needs to have specific settings for each day of the week, so I need a serialized multi-dimensional array inserted into the 'variable' table... Here is what I have so far (this excerpt is from inside a 'foreach' loop, where '$value' represents each day of the week):
