How can i populate the form fields programmatically
Let me illustrate, consider the following example

<?php

function form(){
return drupal_get_form('myform');
}
function myform($form_state){
    $form['name'] = array(
   '#type' => 'textfield',
'$title' => 'Name: ',
   );
$form['submit'] = array(
'#type' => 'submit',
    '#value' => 'Save',
);
return $form;
}
function myform_submit($form,&$form_state){
    $form_id = 'myform';
$form_state['values']['name'] = 'Hello World';
   drupal_execute($form_id,$form_state);
}
?>

Here, when submit event occurs, instead of getting the values populated, i get the white blank screen of death on the screen. Is something wrong with my syntax??

There is absolutely no reason this should have been sent out to all these groups, if you have a support question it would be much better to post this in the forums on d.o. at http://drupal.org/forum

Good evening,

Happy Holidays! I am trying to create a site similar, in structure, to this one: http://www.skelbiu.lt/. I know that views will be helpful in creating this type of website format. I'm trying to figure out, though, how to get links connected to each category. Any knowledge of how to do this? Thanks in advance!

Best,
Marcus

You can use taxonomy for categorizing the content , then inside the view you can filter by node type , and get the count of for the corresponding category .
