Module development and code questions

OK in one of my new modules, I am trying to do a "bulk" delete of rows from a table using:

db_query("DELETE FROM sampleTable WHERE keyColumn like 'deleteme%'");
$rowCt = db_affected_rows();

In this example, $rowCt gets set to 144 indicating 144 rows were deleted as expected. But, when I go look at the table ... the number of rows is UNCHANGED!

Hi guys!!

I installed the technorati modulde from http://www.flevour.net/node/124 but I recieved this message:

warning: implode(): Bad arguments. in xx\xx\modules\technorati_tag\technorati_tag.module on line 64.

Any idea how to fix this problem...?

Thanks..

Hi,
i have some Problems with drupal 4.6 and flickr.com and xmlrpc. If i try to upload an picture via flickr(xmlrpc), drupal overides my settings in content where i enable -Promoted to front page-. After an upload it is disabled that means that i have to manually enable it. I can only upload over xmlrpc.php as admin. Every other user starts an error message on flickr. Whats wrong? Flickr? Drupal? Me? :-)

I'm trying to build a site that lists multiple podcasts for people to download. The thing I want to do is add a description to each of the RSS feeds so people can decide if the 'cast is for them before they download it. Is this something that is already available or does anyone know how to do it?

How to override function user_register($edit = array()) in user.module? That it will not be necessary to change user.module.
Is there somethink like this?

function phptemplate_user_register($edit = array()) {
return _phptemplate_user_register('user_register', array('edit'=>$edit) );
}

But for module functions?

Thank You
