javascript, jquery, ready

Josh:

Many javascript libraries, including the almost ubiquitous jQuery, provide an element.ready function. This allows for queuing functions to run when the document or element is ready to receive commands.

Joshua:

Drupal can be used to build so many different kinds of cool things that, as developers, we sometimes forget that the users of our sites - and, more importantly, our clients - don't see their website through the same eyes that we do.

Filtering Apache Solr search results based on dynamic fields

Apache Solr, apachsolr, drupal, search

Brad :

You may often have content in Drupal that should not appear for certain user roles. There are many ways to accomplish this in the CMS, but restricting them from search results is often overlooked. If you are using Apache Solr for your search engine, you can use the apachesolr module's hooks to determine what search results are returned.
