Hey - just noticed the BUEditor buttons at the top of the text blocks at G&G.
Great addition to the site, thanks.

BUeditor rocks.

For the last week (and then some) I've been struggling with getting an exposed filter working, in Views 2.

Initially when setting an exposed view, I was ticking the "remember" box in the exposed filter setup. But I cannot see that this box has any effect at all... When I go to the path which will call up my view, I can see the exposed filter. No problem so far... except that the filter behaves exactly the same way regardless of whether the "remember" box was ticked or not. It always behaves as though the "remember" box was actually ticked.

D6 site. CCK, CCK date module. Views2 installed.
I have created a content type which has a CCK date field.

I can create a view using the CCK date field as a filter, however as soon as I expose the filter, I get an error "An illegal choice has been detected. Please contact the site administrator". Well, I asked the site administrator (me) and he was no use at all...

Looking through this post on formatting the front page of a site, I was thinking about using the Panels module.

A question for the experienced designers: Assuming one is proficient in CSS and the *.tpl.php architecture... When would you use the Panels module? What are the pros & cons?

One of the great strengths of Drupal is the range of choices you have for implementing stuff. I'd love to hear back from you guys about the pros/cons of using Panels.

Thanks!

Now that CCK is becoming "industrial-strength" for D6, is there still a valid reason to use taxonomy any longer? Perhaps I am missing the point (I frequently do...) but instead of using taxonomy, I can create a CCK field, which is a drop-down text field, and can populate that with the various categories etc. I can then use this field as a component of a view.

Isn't this fundamentally the same sort of thing that taxonomy is used for? When is taxonomy still an essential item?
