In Google forms, try making a field a select, and then post an unavailable option to the form. This might be a much better security feature.

I've made some significant, but truly hard-won progress. Getting things done the Drupal way is really really hard when you don't know how. So, here's what I've learned.

Form Submission Woes Solved

My son Peter built me a very simple module that puts node-specific student notes into a side panel. He basically copied some stuff from the FAQ-Ask add-question block. The problem is, when you click the 'Save' button, the whole page reloads. Took me weeks to figure out the best way to overcome this.

I've finally broken down and installed an html editor. However, this one is not WYSIWYG, and I love the button set I got by making a small donation to the module author. I think this is going to work out just fine.

I still have markdown enabled, and it appears to work fine if you just throw the markup into your page instead of the full html. Remember to use real lists if you want to be able to do multiple levels easily. Also, us the LI button to insert a list item into an existing list.

• first item

I have just learned about a module called Markdown, which will hopefully be a good compromise for those who wish writing html were more like writing a wiki. Unfortunately the Markdown markup is not the same as that used in the Sakai wiki, but it still saves a lot of keystrokes over writing the full html.

So, here are some of the things you can do.

Bulletted list. Start lines with + - or *. I'm not sure about *, because that is also supposed to handle bold. Maybe the difference is the space.
