The core that allows content to be submitted to the site. Modules and scripts may programmatically submit nodes using the usual form API pattern.

Code

function node_submit($node) {

  // Convert the node to an object, if necessary.
  $node = (object) $node;

  // Generate the teaser, but only if it hasn't been set (e.g. by a
  // module-provided 'teaser' form item).

      $node->teaser = node_teaser($node->body, isset($node->format) ? $node->format : NULL);

      // Chop off the teaser from the body if needed. The teaser_include
      // property might not be set (eg. in Blog API postings), so only act on
      // it, if it was set with a given value.
