Cleaning up FCKeditor

Today I added some features to the FCKeditor:

1. Changed Global Visibility Settings (in admin/settings/fckeditor/editg ): Added "Fields to exclude" which stops the editor showing up when these fields are edited

[code]edit-biblio-custom1
edit-biblio-custom2
edit-biblio-coins
edit-field-address1-0-value[/code]

2. Tried to turn on file browser - but not working yet.

Installing FCKeditor

Today, I am trying out FCKeditor on www4.cos.gmu.edu

Steps:

1. Download fckeditor drupal module and FCKeditor itself
Put both in ~/Downloads/drupal

2. cd /var/www/html/www4/sites/all/modules

3. tar xzf ~/Downloads/drupal/fckeditor-5.x-2.1.tar.gz

4. cd fckeditor

5. tar xzf ~/Downloads/drupal/FCKeditor_2.6.tar.gz

6. Administer -> Site building -> Modules and enable FCKeditor

7. Administer -> User management -> Access control and let Site Admin administer and use FCKeditor

8. Try it out with a news story - seems to work.

Touchy Response from Apple

I just received the following from Apple:


Your post "Blank Photos from iPhone " has been removed from Apple Discussions as it discusses activity or information that violates the Apple End User License Agreement for Apple Software.

Offending post:

I can see my photos on my iPhone, but nothing appears when I try to use iPhoto or Lightroom to import the images off the phone. All I get is a listing of the images, and black boxes. What is up??????

Can I jailbreak to get to the actual files, or am I hosed?

LDAP Groups in Drupal

Trying to set up LDAP groups so that Faculty can be authenticated and given privileges.

Files and Forms:

sites/all/modules/ldap_integration/ldap_integration/ldapgroups.conf.php This is where we say how to get group information from the LDAP server

Forms: admin/settings/ldapgroups This is where we customize a value returned from the LDAP server into a name of our group.

We are not sure how this really works.

What we do know:
