- Bugfix: fixed translation problems in the user module and the block module. Patch by Stefan.
- Improvement: made it impossible to delete user role #1 and #2. Patch #38 by Al.
- Improvement: fixed the "Allowed HTML tag" issues. Makes for better code and improved usability. Patch #35 by Al.
NOTE: as soon the compose tips make their way into CVS, most of this code can be removed.
- 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.
- Improvement: don't generate the <base href=""> tag in the base theme; it is already emitted by theme_head(). Patch by Kristjan.
- Improvement: don't execute any SQL queries when checking the permissions of user #1. Patch by Kjartan.
- Improvement: made a scalable layout form that works in IE and that behaves better with narrow themes. Part of patch #51 by Al.
- Improvement: removed some redundant print statements from the comment module. Modified patch from Craig Courtney.
==> This fix requires to run update.php!
- Bugfix: made sessions work without warnings when register_globals is turned off. The solution is to use $_SESSION instead of session_register(). This fixes critical bug #1797. Patch by Marco.
- Bugfix: sometimes error messages where being discarded when previewing a node. Patch by Craig Courtney.
- Bugfix: fixed charset problems. This fixes critical bug #1549. Patch '0023.charset.patch' by Al.

- GUI improvements: small fixes to Xtemplate. Patch '0022.xtemplate.css.patch' by Al.
TODO:
- Some modules such as the buddy list module and the annotation module in the contributions repository are also using session_register(). They should be updated. We should setup a task on Drupal.
- 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.
some of Moshe's node form work later on.
TODO:
- I just spotted a problem with the promote field; it does not seem to be
"sticky" when you click the preview button. I checked and this was also
the case prior to applying this patch.
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.
- Bugfix: the admin module was still emitting a <base href=""> tag. I
removed this as it is been taken care of by theme_head(); Patch by me.
- Bugfix: made the tracker module's pager only consider published pages.
Patch by Moshe.
- Bugfix: cured some typos in the comment module's help function. Patch by
Marco.

attributes to be discarded.

Patch by Al.

Reported by Kjartan.
- CSS improvements: made the HTML output emitted by the tracker module
look nicer. Patch by Moshe and Al.
- CSS improvements: added CSS classes for form elements. Patch by Al.
- CSS improvements: added a vertical gap between the last form item and the
submit button. Patch by Al. Note that Opera 6 is not picking up this
CSS but apparently others browsers such as Konqueror do.
- Xtemplate improvements: changed the color of the selected day in the
archive module's calendar. Patch by Al.
- Usability improvements: made the "birthday" field of the profile module
look nicer. Patch by Al.
------
- 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?
- 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.
+ Fixed bug 1544: comment_mod_matrix() was broken.
+ Emit tables using the table rendering functions.
+ Fixed a typo in the documentation/comments.
(Welcome back Marco!)
"implemented pieces of kjartan's original nodeAPI patch. the mingling
of other modules into node.module logic decreases (a good thing). for
example, the string "taxonomy" now appears nowhere in node.module
- moved the saving of taxonomy terms when submitting a node out of
node.module and into taxonomy.module
- moved the deletion of comments while deleting a node out of
node.module and into comment.module
- improved usability of node forms by including node type in the title
of the box and page"
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.
*nodes* in addition to comments. This will be helpful for tracking down new
book nodes, blog posts, news items, and other stuff which isn't interesting
enough to be promoted to the home page.
* After having a chat with Dries we have agreed on the logics (or
more specifically he told me how its supposed to work). The queue
module is just a method to make moderation public, but its not
necessarily the only way. This brings the power back.
- Minor interface tweaks (names, case changes, etc).
- Fixed error that would show when you tried to view the profile of a
blocked user.
- 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.
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.
- Added a _nodeapi hook that in time will replace the _node hook. Trying
to make as few changes to existing code as possible until the new api
is stabilized.
- Modified node_form() to add administration options from other modules
using the _nodeapi hook.
- Modified node_save() to fetch which fields should be saved to the node
table from the _nodeapi hook.
- Moved comment and queue options from node_form() and node_save() to
the modules _nodeapi hooks.
