Module development and code questions

i want to create links in pages that when clicked on will result in a complete response (http header and body) sent to the client.

specifically, i want to send an extended m3u format playlist that will be generated dynamically (not stored on disc).

rather than hack it and create an external script that does it, i'd like to learn how this would be done drupal style.

i'm assumming i'd be writing a hook_* callback that would perform the task, but not sure which/how etc...

Hi all :)
Sorry if i make some mystake but i'm french so my english is not ( really not ) perfect ^^.
I'm looking for someone who can help me in develloping a module ( or something else ) who can allow someone who have a blog ( someone other than the admin ) to set his own logo ... Of course, all people are accepted, english or french :)
Thx,

Hi,

I'm having trouble trying to figure out how to set up the menu for my custom module. What I'm doing is basically a contact directory with the info coming from our department ldap server. What I want it to do, menu wise, is have two distinct types of pages. First is a listing page, for the paths:

/people - lists a welcome page
/people/all - lists everyone
/people/faculty - lists only faculty
/people/staff - lists staff
/people/ta - lists grads/ta

No problems here, this all works fine, the above are all local tasks to appear as tabs. The problem is that I also want to do the following paths:

/people/uid/view - views information for the user with given uid
/people/uid/edit - edit information for the user with given uid

I want these to be tabs as well. The problem I'm running into here is that when I do this, the view & edit tabs show up on the other list pages, and it seems the actions for view/edit don't actually get called because the menu system doesn't seem to match the action anyway.

Here is my trial menu code...

<?php
$items[] = array(
'path' => 'people',
'callback' => 'contact_list',
'title' => 'People',
'access' => user_access('view people'),
);
$items[] = array(
'path' => 'people/' . arg(1) . '/view',
'callback' => 'person_display',
'access' => user_access('view people'),

I tried the two modules

- mail
- simplenews (latest 4.6-Branch)

which both use activeMailLib for delivering mails. Unfortunately both dont work for me, whereas the standard drupal mail delivery works flawlessly. Does anybody made the same experience? Until now I couldnt find the reason in my log files ... :/

Btw. Im wondering why both modules dont use the drupal API for delivering mails ... Does anybody know why? Doesnt it make things more complicated?

Not sure if this is an installation problem, an upgrade problem or a module problem . . .

Is there a simple way to implement a registration forms to the events? In contrast to RSVPs I'd like not to invite people to my event, but, first, let them find my event and by filling in the registration form, which would collect additional to user's profile data, apply for the invitation to the event. Then I, based on their submitted data, could send them RSVP.
