The difficulty is that sometimes we want tags to work as HTML, but sometimes we want to show the <font color=red>source</font>.

I think the ideal solution here would be a modification to the formatting parser that understands <code></code> tags and converts everything between them into plain-formatted text. How does that sound?

There is no way currently apart from cut and paste ... if there isn't a feature request filed on this there should be.

DB design doc? Yep, it's just here, in this folder with my always up-to-date UML specification, perfect API documentation and PhD thesis ... (wakes from dream) damn!

No, sorry, (too much evolution, too little time), but I find phpmyadmin gives a pretty good overview of the database. You'll find that all fields containing course ids are consistently named "course", so it shouldn't be too hard to spot the things that need grabbing. I'll be happy to help if you get stuck on particulars.

Probably the wrong forum for this, but try the attached script to fix file permissions. Save the script in your main Moodle directory, then run it from a browser.

Thanks! The image has one level of sub-categories, but from your text and the others further up I'm guessing arbitrary depth is needed.

Which complicates the display issue .. how should we display these levels in the little side box, but also how should they look on the full display?
