Hey,

I looked over the docs for "Customize Built-in and Profile Screens" and Chapter 7 generally. Could someone point me to the docs re: altering a CiviCRM page (specifically, adding the Tags checkboxes in edit mode to the New Phone Call page)

Any related filenames would be appreciated. The closest thing I could find was on Heydon's web site. Am I getting close?

1. civicrm does not use drupal's form api. so no equivalent of form_alter (in 2.0 and prior). there are new hooks in 2.1 which should allow u to add form elements into any form

2. you will need to hack the files directly in 2.0. Check http://civicrm.org/architecture/ to get a idea of how things are laid out (read the oldest articles first).

3. the new phone call page code is at: CRM/Activity/Form/Activity.php

I assume u mean the corresponding page for this url:

http://drupal.demo.civicrm.org/civicrm/contact/view/activity?atype=2&action=add&reset=1&cid=105
