Drupal: CCK API Docs
Any good CCK API out there? I've seen http://api.audean.com/ but can't find what I want there.
Basically, I need a function that takes the name of a field and returns what the type of node is of that field. I wrote my own but would rather make an API call.

CCK is awesome module, but has terrible outdated documentation. :(
As you browse through the module files, you will find content_fields ($ field_name) that can provide the functionality you are looking for.
The function takes a field name and returns an array of all parameters for that field. The node type is stored in ['type_name'], so you can write something like the following:
$field = content_fields('field_myfield');
$node_type = $field['type_name'];
This should give you the node type for the field_myfield.
