The content item module for Joomla 1.5 has been renamed to “Place Here Module” or “mod_placehere” or whatever – the name has been suggested by a user of the module and I think it fits the bill (and frankly I don’t care if it sounds good) – the new name was needed for disambiguation, if not by anybody else then at least by me (I got regularly confused on which version I was working).
I fixed a number of bugs (but didn’t yet add any features) and I hope that it now works better and that the errors I couldn’t reproduce will now somehow be resolved, too. Well bugs… there were a few occasions were I did not (or still do not) understand the new framework – I’m convinced it’s a thing of beauty and everything, but it means that even a trivial thing like the content item module suddenly requires a heavy investment in time and effort which, I am sure, is a sign of progress. Oh well.
New version is at the download page (see sidebar). This has been tested with WinXP/Apache and RC3. Feedback is, as always, welcome.
Hi Tom,
you can’t prevent tables at the moment (the table is used for output in columns), but an option to use tableless markup will be added sometime during the next week.

how can I prevent that all the content is placed in a table?
It would be great to have the option to place RAW content with mod_placehere!

i was styling my test site and using your module on joomla 1.5 i think there might be a error with the name of the class suffix param youre using pageclass_sfx instead of moduleclass_sfx established in the xml
in addition a class atribbute should be definned (”placeholder” should work) in the table container to simplfy the styling of the module.
well i will keep playing aroun with it to. and thanx for the module it simplify my work of displaying content.
PD: sorry for my english.
