This adds session support for anonymous users and fixes a bug/typo.
1. changed rid for user #0 from 0 to 1 (rid 1 == anonymous user) to make
inner join work.
2. replaced "if ($user .." by "if ($user->uid .." because now $user is
always set (my previous change probably caused this).
3. db_next_id("user_uid") -> db_next_id("users_uid");

- Made sure the 'Topic' title is only shown above the topics, not the icons.
- Automatically shorten the username when it is too long. I implemented this
as part of format_name() and could therefore nuke some code in the
statistics module. This is change is somewhat experimental and I'm willing
to revert or change this if a number of people aren't too happy with this
behavior.
- Left align the dates and authors: makes it easier/faster to scan.
- Made the little tablesort arrows clickable.
- Applied modified version of mathias' 0073 patch: node form name.
$params["options"] is now an array so some contrib modules might
need minor changes.
- Applied mathhias' 0074 patch: missing access check on who is new
block.

- Improvement: usability improvements to the Xtemplate theme. Patch #3 by Kristjan.
- Improvement: CSS'ified the book module pages. Patch #3 by Al. (I simplified the "l
ocation" part. Al's approach gave you a bit more power but I'm not sure anyone wants
to change that. Besides, this will change as soon we integrate the menu system so I kept it easy for now.)
- Bugfix: fixed the defaults for blocks in database.mssql so the NOT NULL fields get values. Patch by Kjartan.
- Bugfix: changed check_form() to use htmlspecialchars() instead of drupal_specialchars() as this caused Drupal to emit incorrect form items in presence of quotes. Example:
<input type="submit" class="form-submit" name="op" value="Submit "top nodes" block changes" />
IMO, drupal_specialchars() is better called xmlspecialchars() to avoid confusion.
- Bugfix: when an anonymous user visits a site, they shouldn't see any content (except the login block, if it is enabled) unless they have the "access content" permissions. Patch by Matt Westgate.
- Improvement: improved the error checking and the error messages in the profile module. Updated the code to match the Drupal coding conventions. Modified patch from Matt Westgate.

TODO:

- There is code emitting '<div align="right">' which doesn't validate.
- Does our XML feeds validate with the charset changes?
- The forum module's SQL doesn't work properly on PostgreSQL.
to avoid XSS attacks! Patch by Al, Moshe, Marco, Kjartan and me.
- Bugfix: the admin module does now import drupal.css prior to admin.css.
Patch by me.

removed this as it is been taken care of by theme_head(); Patch by me.

------
- TODO: it might be a good idea to emit the following meta tag in the
theme_head() function:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
Currently, some themes (and modules!) emit this while others don't. This
would also make it possible to change the charset site-wide.
- TODO: now we added support for td.dark and td.light to drupal.css, maybe
it can be removed from admin.css as well as xtemplate.css?
components such as lists, form items, removes an ugly hack from the
archive module and should fix the poll problem (although it doesn't
Opera/Konqueror).
a little hack that sometimes patches the request_uri(); I don't think
this should trigger in first place. If it does, let me know the URL of
the form as well as the referring page. (If this needs fixing after all,
fixing this _inside_ request_uri() might be a better solution.)
of the "footer" hook (and because of the existence of the page module).
This caused the node view counter to be incremented twice per page view,
the cache being set twice, etc. Quite a bug.
- Fixed a typo in the MSSQL database scheme. Patch by Michael Frankowski.
- Removed dependency on "register_globals = on"! Patches by Michael Frankowski.
Notes:
+ Updated the patches to use $foo["bar"] instead of $foo['bar'].
+ Updated the INSTALL and CHANGELOG files as well.
- Tiny improvement to the "./scripts/code-clean.sh" script.
PHP's XML-RPC library is enabled.
- Renamed 'xmlrpc_encode' to '_xmlrpc_encode' to avoid redeclaration when
PHP's XML-RPC library is enabled.
- Removed 'if (funcion_exist("xmlrpc_encode"))' check from common.inc.
The syntax for db_query_range() was enhanced so it matches db_query(). So
you may pass extra arguments of the SQL statement which are checked via
check_query() and then substituted into the SQL statement. After these
optional arguments, you always pass $from and $count parameters which
define your range. Most often, the $from is 0 and the count is the max
number of records you want returned. Patch by Moshe.
- The pager_query() function for PEAR was enhanced so that it adds proper
GROUP BY statement counting the number of records to be paged. Patch by
James Arthur.
- MSSQL database scheme by Moshe.
will now barf when trying to instantiate a non-existing theme class.
This should help to identify broken themes, and to track down theme system
related bugs.
- Added node_admin_settings() to let users set node defaults.
* Added _nodeapi("conf")
- Modified form_checkbox() to unset options. (Modified the patch from Ax.)
- Removed the _save() hook.
- Fixed a logical flaw in field_get() and field_set() which would break
moderation.
- Moved some admin menus around and cleaned up some typos.
invoke module_init() *after* the locale module has been initialized. The
system module was translating string from within its init hook which is now
possible/allowed.
The following modules need updating:
* glossary module
* feed module (Breyten's version)
* mailhandler module
* notify module
* project module
* smileys module
* admin module
* style module
* taxonomy_dhtml module
To avoid unexpected problems menu_add() is deprecated (it will print an
error message when used) and menu() should be used instead.
- Removed all instances of '$user->nodes'.
- Committed Moshe's taxonomy patch - minus the node_compact_list() bit. It needs a bit more thought/work. This patch changes the links of taxonomy pages/feeds so update your custom code and themes accordingly!
Themes should now use "taxonomy_link("taxonomy terms", $node)" to get an array of taxonomy term links. The old construct is deprecated and should be changed.
// old theme blob:
if (function_exists("taxonomy_node_get_terms")) {
foreach (taxonomy_node_get_terms($node->nid) as $term) {
$terms[] = l($term->name, NULL, array(), "or=$term->tid");
}
}
// new theme blob:
if (module_exist("taxonomy")) {
$terms = taxonomy_link("taxonomy terms", $node);
}
// old URL:
http://foo.com/index.php?or=1,2
// new URL:
http://foo.com/?q=taxonomy/page/or/1,2
are not members of the site. Two examples are listhandler and import modules.
There is no easy way for these modules to display the true author of the
content. Usually, the content appears as if authored by Anonymous User. This
3 line patch enables modules to override the author name in their _view() hook.
- Bad usage of css ID's: they may be used for a single element only,
but were used as #node, #block, which can occur multiple times in a
single page.
- Moved HTML from theme to template - thats what templates are all
about!
- Added support for head() hook
- Added support for diffentiating between boxes and blocks.
- Typo: secundary -> secondary
- forum: fixed link to new topic
- forum: new topic shows default forum correctly
- forum: first_new is back; the anchor didn't consider multiple pages
- forum: use standard pager, needed some changes/fixes to pager.inc
- forum: some cleanup
- forum: taxonomy hook
- renamed first_new to simply new
- added an optional parameter to pager_query for the count query
- used the optional count param for paging forum topics
- internal change: moving a topic doesn't duplicate the node anymore but just
changes the forum (term); no change in functionality, and shadow still
works (suggested by Dries). This probably also made some queries somewhat
lighter.
- bug fixed: anonymous users always saw "n (n new)" in the replies column
- updated pager help and moved from _help to phpdoc
or "operation" link.
- Made the main page of the administration section show an overview of all
watchdog entries with such action link.
- Fixed typo in PostgreSQL database scheme.
