Module development and code questions

Hello,

I'm trying to alter the profile.module to spit out appropriate fields based on a profile category. In this case, i will be using the new audio.module to include a mp3 player into profiles of the category "band". I need to establish the category during registration, and I am stuck on one portion of the user.module code that I don't quite understand.

How can i put the title of a node in the meta description?

I know that i can wrote the title in the teaser part but this isnt a good solution because there is already a headline. The title should displayed in the meta description. Any ideas where i can do this? In the theme or in the module (which line?!) ?

I am using drupal 4.62 and the latest nodwordsmodule.

Thank you very much

I am making a module using hook_nodeapi.
When I try to echo debug info for operations "update" or "insert", nothing outputs for any node type. So I wonder whether this hook is being properly called upon update & insert of a node. I can echo debug info properly for other operations ("settings", "validate" printing OK). Code:

HI, I am fairly new to Drupal but have installed several dozen sites, and just recently have come up with the need to bulk import entries to a flexinode. I remember reading that there are some problems with directly entering posts to the MySQL database. Is this possible to do.

I tried using the Node_Import module but have not be able to get it to work. I point it to the CSV file and click Import, the page refreshes but no data is imported. Perhaps I have missed some setting for it.

Hi,

I have problem with Drupal 4.6.2 (Linux system : Ubuntu 5.04).

I can't write any content on my drupal website, neither login nor logout fron the drupal. I can't see any content or do anything.

I've got this message :

Fatal error: Can't open file: 'variable.MYI'. (errno: 145) query: SELECT * FROM variable in
/var/www/drupal462/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 66

I was working on my drupal website (on local), suddently everything is blocked. I stopped the system by using the power button. I couldn't restart the system. Then, I try again and the system asked me to do this :

mount -n -o remount, rw /

then, the system asked me to lauch fsck to clear problem on i_blocks and inode. I said yes to valide.

Some inodes and blocks are deleted. After that I restart the system and that works.

I launched the drupal website and this message appears :

user error: Can't open file: 'variable.MYI'. (errno: 145)
query: SELECT * FROM variable WHERE name like 'event_nodeapi_%' in /var/www/drupal462/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 66.

I can't create content and anything else on my website. This message appears :

Fatal error: Can't open file: 'variable.MYI'. (errno: 145) query: SELECT * FROM variable in /var/www/drupal462/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 66

Hi,

I'm having some problem with AJAX form_autocomplete functionality from the CVS build.

When I navigate to my page with the form_autocomplete it works fine! But when I navigate to another page and again to the one with the form_automplete it doen't work anymore... The form_autocomplete field keeps loading and loading. Looks like a infinitive loop.

I've put in the code I'm using.
The form_autocomplete functionality is great but it doesn't look stable. Any help welcome.

Regards,
Marcel
