This block is yours? or is a Core Block? -- - Mateo T. - Mis principios... son mis fines

I'm trying to learn PostNuke so that I can change a module called pnTresMailer into something I need for a project. So I thought writing my own module would be a good start, but I'm having trouble finding the information I need. It's a shame Introduction to Module Writing in the Wiki is just an empty page. EDIT: I don't know if I should post these questions in another thread, but until someone tells me otherwise I'll stick to this(it's related). I'm looking at the pnlogin block in the pnRender module and on line 45 it says "function pnRender_pnloginblock_display($row)", where does the variable $row come from? edited by: runekinn, Apr 12, 2007 - 12:57 PM -- Runekinn

BTW, I think pnTresMailer isn't a good start, I think that module is not API compliant. - Igor -- `Have a nice day` zikulapro.be is currently running Zikula 1.0.2
