Drupal has a pretty tall learning curve, it's better to know some of the more popular modules out there before jumping in and trying to build a site with it. Check out the lullabot video series (worth every penny) for a good primer. I picked these up and made my money back x10 on my first drupal site. Drupal does require a little pre planning but then again every project / application does, that being said you can add new modules anytime you want and remove them too (little more time required here). You don't need a ton of PHP knowledge almost anything you need to do with drupal already has a module written for it. Yes you can modify any of the existing modules as they're written in PHP, beware this takes a strong PHP knowledge most of the time. Good luck...

Change it how? Change the look of it? Change the text used? You can add your own information to the end of the current breadcrumb by adding a simple php print statement to the end of your breadcrumb print. If you want to change the separators you will have to modify the preprocess function for breadcrumb variable. You can get this information using the theme module.

I don't think you get all three if you want really easy, you can try single template Volusion. Basically you only need to do the markup for the site. Fastest is relative to a lot of different things. If your Drupal / Ubercart setup was slow you probably need to change somethings with your configuration, possibly your hosting. A couple overzealous views in drupal can kill the performance of page loads. I don't think "best" is a quantifiable term.

I like Drupal.

When you click a link that link becomes :active

Be sure to mark your topic as solved.

Those would be accessed using the $_GET[' '] superglobal

Create a file upload system that drops the file to a upload inbox on your server. Then record the file location to the database.

Databases aren't designed to store image files, you'd be better off to upload that file to a dropbox area and then record it's location to the database.

looks like you're whois command isn't found in the default path. Try to determine where the whois command resides on the server, and be sure to include the full path to the whois executable.

Could you modify the scripts you found to only backup one table?

you could loop through an array of email addresses. Do you want the email addresses to be posted on the same form? If so you could have the input be comma separated and use explode() to break them out into array members.

Just use include()

When accepting incoming variables from web users you have to be as secure as possible. The first place you start is at the point of entry. If you're using a post method for incoming variables make sure you are accepting those variables using the $_POST[''] superglobal $_REQUEST can allow possible hack attempts. I could get more detailed with this but it's late.

Yes, the design was done on a mac and I run windows at home. From what I've read you can't transfer mac font files to windows, but you can transfer windows fonts to mac os x.

I second this opinion, I use eclipse every day at work it has great svn integration and ftp integration. There are some videos on you tube that will walk you through beginning development with eclipse and java. Check them out they'll make it a lot easier to get started.

So a potential client sent me a comp for his website and the designer he used sent me a an illustrator file that uses a helvetica font. I have installed about 50 different helvetica fonts trying to find this thing and can't seem to get the correct font. Anyone know where I can find the correct plain jane helvetica font?

public function changeValue($b) { $this->b = 10; you reset the value of $this->b to 10 every time you call that function. Pretty sure that's where your problem is.

Mods, this should be moved to the layout board. OP: You need to read about using CSS instead of tables for your layout.

I've only used flat files for scripts I know only I'll be using. If you have a small site with just a few pages that gets popular one day and it's written with flat files, it's going to die. Disk access on a server is murder, try it some time build a flat file the best way you know how. Then build a database with the same number of entries. With a properly formed query a database will be faster every time. Once you have a server creating a new database takes less time then formatting a flat file. If your serving anyone other than yourself flat files should only be used for settings and code. Data storage should always be handled in a database.

I don't think this will help you with your issue, but why did you extend the FDPF class and then not use the extended version in your code?

maybe it's a bug with dreamweaver, try another ftp client to verify your results.

Log into your host with an ftp client and set write privileges on the file.

You will need to use frames to load a separate page into the same page. If you don't want to use frames you'll need to setup something in javascript to support displaying the data on the same page.
