The routines here dispatch control to the appropriate handler, which then prints the appropriate page. In the default form, the addresses are like http://localhost/?q=user/1/help If you cannot find and fix the syntax error, nothing on your site will
display, because Drupal will try to load your module on every page
request.while in the clean url rewriting mode you can pretend it is http://localhost/user/1/help But the first one is the true address. index.php is a dispatcher to build the page returned to the user based on the value of the q argument. maximum upload size 2M usually for development and back-up recivery purposes set it to 64M /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini When copying the whole source of a drupal project to a new location, you need to re-adjust the settings: $ cd drupal_home_directory/sites/default/ $ rm settings.php $ cp default.settings.php settings.php $ chmod -R o+rw .

The theme system provides this template access to over 30 variables. The main page template, then, isn't responsible for displaying individual nodes, blocks, comments, and so on. Instead, it is responsible for displaying regions. It has access to each region, node.tpl.php Some variables like $title, $content, and $terms (taxonomy) of the node are sent to the template block.tpl.php box.tpl.php $title, $content, and $region. comment.tpl.php a dozen variables, which pertain to the comment, the comment poster, and the context of the posting. if a template is not available, e.g. if box.tpl.php is not available, Drupal will use www/include/theme.inc theme_box() to render the box. page>region>node>block> call theme('<hookname>', $arg1, $arg2,...) instead of directly calling In short, theme() makes use of the full theme system, while calling theme_<hookname>() function directly may cause your application to ignore the current theme configuration and use only the default. Invoking theme('images', $a, $b) causes the theme system to check for a function or template that overrides theme_image() Making additional variables available to your templates in themes/theme_name/template.php <?php function _phptemplate_variables($hook, $vars) { switch($hook) { case 'comment' : $vars['newvar'] = 'new variable'; $vars['title'] = 'new title'; break; } return $vars; } ?> ---------------- you can print contents of the blocks in a region by just <? print ?> to theme a specific module, in the .module file have: /** * Implementation of hook_theme(). */ function philquotes_theme() { return array( 'philquotes_quote' => array( //philquotes_quote is name of the theme 'arguments' => array('text' => NULL, 'origin' => NULL), ), ); } OR //if we wanted a template file (philquotes_quote.tpl.php) other than just theming in this method call 'philquotes_quote' => array( 'template' => 'philquotes_quote', 'arguments' => array( /* parameter info */ ), //pass arguments to the theme! ), ------- /** ------------------* Theme function for theming quotes. * * @param $text * The quote content as a string. * @param $origin * The original source of the quote, as a string. * @return * An HTML themed string. */ function theme_philquotes_quote($text, $origin) { //the same as parameters $output = '<div id="philquotes-text">'. t($text) .'</div><div id="philquotes-origin">'. t($origin) .'</div>'; return $output; } Installdownload drupal 6 from the web site. unzip it, copy all the content of the main directory created plain in the www directory of the apache.Drupal needs permission to modify /var/www/ create a database for the new drupal mysql needs access to create a database $ sudo chmod o+rw -R /var/lib/mysql Enable Clean URLs Ubuntu 1)enable rewrite module on apache.

Database Access Table names in Drupal database queries are always enclosed in curly braces, such as {node}. This is necessary so that your module will support database table name prefixes. Normally, all queries on nodes should employ the db_rewrite_sql() function, which makes sure the user viewing the page has permission to see each node that is returned.db_query()Ajax.module file: /** * Implementaiton of hook_menu() */ function philquotes_menu() { $items['philquotes.json'] = array( //registered address to be called at client 'title' => 'Philquotes AJAX Gateway', // title to be used at the menu 'page callback' => 'philquotes_item', // call back method, called when the client sends a request to the address registered above 'access arguments' => array('access content'), // you can use permission roles declared at hook_perm() access content permission.
