Re: [chiPHPug-discuss] button to pass value & default lookup

[Jough D. <jou...@gm...>]

Is this Drupal 5 or 6?  The forms API is a little different for each,
but basically you want to look at using "hook_form_alter" to alter the
form you want, or the form API to build a form that can be submitted.

The Path Auto module will allow you to create the path you want.  It's
a pretty common module and we use it in a number of our Drupal
projects.
