For example we want to add an api key as a variable to our jquery script. In drupal we define our apikey using a settings form. We add the js using drupal_add_js. Notice that the second parameter says 'setting', this is used to tell the drupal javascript system to add the array as a setting in scripts.
As we all know drupal has a default front page which shows a view of teaser nodes promoted to front.
Most sites will replace this page with something else.
But we might forget that we can still go to this page. You might want to remove it.
A simple trick to do this is to make it go to the page not found.
When working with taxonomy, especialy large vocabularies with deep hierarchies the standard taxonomy module isnt enough to manage your vocabularies. To maintain the vocabulary in drupals backend the most obvious choice is http://drupal.org/project/taxonomy_manager
The blog contains tips for using the Drupal content management system/framework.
