Module development and code questions

I would like to change the database table for "nodewords" in the upcoming release. What is the standard way of doing this? I need to:

• alter the table defnition (add a column or two)
• migrate the current content into a new format

Do I just need to put the steps to do in the README.txt or INSTALL.txt, or is there a more automatic way?

Thx,
Robrecht

I installed the webform module and as you can see here http://jlproperties.manacan.ca/?q=node/79 I have a basic webform. My problem is that when the page is viewed in Internet Explorer the menu at the right of the page gets pushed down to the bottom however this does not happen when view in Firefox. I was wondering why, I don't have this problem with any other text areas on the site.

What could be causing this and how could I fix it.

Thank you

I kind of got a pop3 DA module working that would work for a pop3 for one domain. but has an issue...

IF anyone is allowed to create an account w/o approval or if user.module is hacked,
the following Distributed Authentication module works... so long as the good username/passoword,
and no syntax error in imap_open function.
However if the imap_open fails, even if I have php display_errors OFF, it still opens the header with stream error message that shows the folder and messes up drupal page by putting

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: drupal_get_path() in /usr/share/drupal/modules/img_assist/img_assist.module on line 177

Hello,
I tried to install banner module in my current drupal system (4.5.2). I found a lot of problems, most of them reported by the webmaster of kerneltrap.org.
I wonder if there is someone working in releasing a stable version for Drupal 4.5.X.

Thank you.

Regards,

Paco

If you think you have seen this title before, you are correct. But, the topic needs a kick in the pants to get it going again, so let's start again.

Flexinode is configured to use ImageMagick. The question was, how do you configure it to use GD in the hopes of creating flexinode thumbnails for those poor souls who don't have imagemagick.

araujo.guntin made mention of modifying field_image.inc, but he has gone forum AWOL.

Any ideas how this can be done?
