CCK (Fields API) drupal description
The CCK module allows you to create custom content types with the necessary fields such as text fields, dropdowns, checkboxes, and radio buttons. You can also add custom fields to existing content types.
Integration with Other Modules
block_submit
Prevents multiple form submissions. It uses JavaScript to disable or hide buttons after one click, with an option to show a message instead.
cck_editbutton
Adds an edit button to a CCK field, allowing content creators to include a JavaScript-based edit option visible only in edit mode.
cck_blocks
Creates blocks for any CCK field, displaying field values in a block (left, right, or elsewhere) instead of the main content area. It's a simple panel variation useful for client-managed field blocks directly from the edit screen.

Adds the ability to select a specific CCK field to use as the teaser (summary) for a content item. If set, it overrides the default teaser behavior.
