While creating rather simple JavaScript widget today, based on Date object I faced a tiny and small problem; As you all know Date objects prototype function getMonth(), returns a numeric representation of month. It means January = 0 and December of course is 11.
But lets take a simple example - You are building a drop down selection calendar, with 3 selection boxes; Year, Month and Day.
So, your month's will be not numbers but strings. Problem, how to map this with getMonth() numeric representation? Here is a

Drupal - Content construction kit (CCK) field information
Hi,
Days ago I was in need for quick access to CCK field table information in order to query Drupal data base. So searching through CCK modules function library I found couple of ones;
1. content_fields() - returns information about content fields - see more for options - http://api.lullabot.com/content_fields
2. content_database_info() - returns database information about particular field - more goes here - http://api.lullabot.com/content_database_info
So having a bit of brainstorming I've created this small

Please have a look at this Child Page, as you can see breadcrumb just below the main navigation displays option to navigate back to parent Menu items, and this is only on pages where menus have children.
Took I vile to get decision and

Creating customized language switcher block on Drupal website in PHP.
Hi,
Tonight I want to share some ideas how to customize or even create you own language switcher block on your Drupal based website. Live example I am using is Aisc.com.
Some things you need for that;
1. Enable locale module - you can find under core/optional modules
2. Internationalization or i18n custom module from drupal.org/project/i18n.
At first install I18n module and enable all multilingual support what is required - in my case these are all options, because I needed all site content
