Hello everybody,

Deco CSS - add a margin

Hi all,
I am working with the deco theme in drupal 6, and i have managed to style it so that it looks how i want, bar one little thing which is driving me mad. I want to add a margin to every page, like most sites have.
I have managed to resize the content and sidebars so that the space has been created, and now the margin exists, but it is white. I want to make it black but have no idea how to as the space in question is just extra padding for the content section, and not an actual div. I am using the triple sidebar layout also.

Zen Sub Theme - Adding New Region Fails

Hey,
I am adding a new region to a zen sub theme. This theme has 'first and second sidebar' but they are not a true 'left' sidebar (which doesn't exist in this theme).
I edited the sub theme's .info file and added 'left sidebar'. I notice it appear on the 'blocks admin page' but when I add a block to that region, it doesn't load. I even added the css code to the theme's (sub theme) css file AND
I cleared cache and I added code in the node.story template page (the page that I need to load the left sidebar as it displays stories and we need an ad to display there).

Setup iCal?

I enabled the iCal module that came with Calendar. The little iCal calendar icon appears underneath my mini-calendar. When I click on it, I get a pop up asking me to either open or save calendar.ics. I chose to open it with Microsoft Outlook and when I did, the calendar is empty even though I have a bunch of events on the calendar on my website. How does iCal work? Do I have to do more than enable the module?

How to make XML output from views in Drupal 7?

I need to output view in XML format. I'm able to format all the fields and such so i get the whole XML in $page['content'].
Just can't figure out how to remove everything what is before and after it (HTML head, body tag and such).

Course management in Drupal?

Is there a Drupal module for managing courses? My org. need to find a way to manage courses and participants - from sign up, billing, and emailing students - and perferably a way to analyze their course preferences (profile them)?

multiple language site question

I have been asked to look into the possibility of creating a website for my company that is in both English and Spanish. I have looked into various ways to do this and I think Drupal might be the best route. After looking at the Internationalization module I have a few questions.
1. I do not speak or write Spanish does this module auto translate or is there a way to auto translate, or do I have to find someone to translate the entire site to Spanish?

Failed attempt to upgrade from Drupal 5.* (or 4.*) web-site

Dear Drupal users,
Firstly, thank you for the wonderful product and services. [1]
(The following has a possible relation to "Really struggling with updating an old D5 website" of 25 Jan 2012 by Bunzer at http://drupal.org/node/1416552 )
I have reached a total roadblock in my attempts to set up a live-testbed [2] on my own Ubuntu/Xfce desk-top computer.
What I have attempted to do, is:

Auto Installation of Module/Theme from URL in Drupal 7.10

Most of the Drupal user will notice a change in Drupal 7.10 upgrade that the option to install Module and theme from URL will disappear. This option is still available but in different place.
This option is moved to
Admin > Reports > Available Updates
and you can see a combined link to install theme or module via URL in drupal 7.10.
This is very useful option for quick Theme and Module Installation

Really struggling with updating an old D5 website

4 years ago, I built a small website using Drupal 5.7. I added Image, and Image Assist modules, as well as the TinyMCE editor (and CAPTCHA), so the main content could be updated like a blog. It's been working fine ever since, but I have never done any code updates.
I've recently transferred this website to my shared server, and I am increasingly concerned about its update status (i.e. it may be vulnerable). So, after a long break from Drupal, I looked into updating the code.
