Mobilizing Drupal
Submitted by Bob Hay on Tue, 08/03/2010 - 21:40
Here is a gallery site in Drupal that displays a Views grid of photos on the front page. It actually displayed fairly well on the iPhone since it is 960 pixels wide (which is what the iPhone assumes by default), but I wanted to serve a special style sheet to iPhones. Here's how I did it.

On this page, using my "As is" input format, I pasted the code for Activity Feed and the code for the "like" button.

A simple request
Submitted by Bob Hay on Mon, 06/21/2010 - 11:51You know the story. You build a Drupal site. It's amazing. Then the client asks for 2 simple features to be added. And you can't deny that they are reasonable requests. If only you'd known about them when you started!

Adding elements to a page with jquery
Submitted by Bob Hay on Sat, 06/05/2010 - 23:16If you go to one of my Magnifier pages, you will see, between the title and the image, the link "Back to Magnifier index."
This particular link is not provided by Views or by Drupal, but is added to the page by jquery. It's a situation that comes up surprisingly often - wanting to add something to a generated page.
It's fairly simple. In fact, it's just one line of jquery.
Making a page with Views
Submitted by Bob Hay on Sat, 06/05/2010 - 20:43
Now that I've got Views giving me a list of links to Magnifier nodes that I've put into a Block on the home page, I think I want to have Views make a page as well. The Block just lists the Titles but the page can be richer... a thunbnail of the image, the title, and a teaser, as shown in the screenshot.
