I promise, I'll stop beating this dead horse once I really understand how dead it is. Promise.

To me, Content Types are like SQL Tables, and Nodes are like SQL Rows. Using the Views module affirms that as I can/do query Drupal content like I would in SQL. Next step is processing data as such.

Does anyone have any suggestions or examples of processing a node of one Content Type based on the data in another (related/referenced) Content Type? I can think of some similar modules, but I'm hoping there's a more straightforward example.

Here's a scenario:

• Content Type 1: "Test Response" with single Answer Value
• Content Type 2: "Answer Key" (one node for each possible answer) with "Correct? (Yes/No)" field

I want to process my Test Responses to see if the Answer Value is correct, then store the result in the Test Response. After wrestling with this mind problem, I think this is the approach I want to take. It is, at least, the problem I want to solve.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Hey, all. Looking for clues. You may remember me as the guy trying to reconcile Drupal with relational databases. Getting there, but I need more help.

I'd like to expose some database table/query information in a node/view. Say I have a list of States. It makes sense to me to have a SQL table with States instead of: a) a node per state, or b) a multi-value text field with 50 values.

Further, as States are so simplistic, there may be tables that have a bit more data, but I'd prefer managing them as a whole in a table or spreadsheet view. It'd be great to be able to do that in Drupal rather than go outside the site.

Any ideas?

I've played with Migrate, which helps imports, but is less helpful for maintenance within the site. I can see using Views for display, but less for edits. Also, would most people make States into "one node per state" anyway? That seems soooo heavy.

Thanks in advance.

We are a boutique web development company specializing in well designed, standards based sites for small to medium businesses. We are currently seeking a freelance Drupal developer to come on board for a contract real estate project.

You will need to install Drupal and any necessary modules, be able to work with CCK/Views/Panels to take our XHTML/CSS/Javascript and transform them into a working Drupal theme or Zen sub-theme. You do not need to create the CSS or base layout, but you do need to be able to provide a site that generates clean code, with no surprises.

The site will be developed in two phases - one to be launched on May 1st (the majority of the functionality completed) and the other with a less definite timeline that will require expanding on the launch functionality.

Please only apply for this if you can provide examples of live Drupal sites that you have coded, if the timeline seems right, and if you are excited to start a long term working relationship on a contract basis. Previous experience with real estate sites a major plus.

In your email please include an idea of your rates, and links to work samples.

Thanks, we look forward to hearing from you.
