What Changed in September 2010
to Thursday 2 September 2010
- Fixed vcruise for Internet Explorer - I hope. The problem is no standard or consistency between browsers on how to return colour values. So lots of special-purpose code to force into a single mode.
- Improvements to the gazetteer handling of waterway IDs, and loading database to prevent an error if there is rubbish in there.
Saturday 4 September 2010
- Prevented deleted photos from appearing on the index page (which gives them a location of "NOT FOUND")
- Added a "having turned at" to the overnight stops. This took a bit more work than I expected, but ended up working nicely.
→ Release 9.10.4
Sunday 5 September 2010
- Removed a lot of old files from the templates directory to reflect the tidying up that had been done in July
- Added some proper error messages instead of sudden death to load/save (eg for not selecting anything, entering an invalid key)
- Prevented !places appearing on Google maps in gazetteer
- Added a complete "change password" feature to the user page
- And added a password change when you've forgotten it from the login box
- And the code to follow the link from that
These last three address issue 236
→ Release 9.10.5
- Tweak to prevent newline characters in place names (and to prevent editing adding spaces etc)
- Can now extend waterways beyond junctions, not just beyond termini
→ Release 9.10.6
Monday 6 September 2010
- Slight improvement to yesterdays extension code to prevent a confusing duplication
- Wrapped main database reads into transactions to prevent occasional problems where a new places appeared half way through someone reading the data and so broke the link structure for that one operation
- Extension to last Monday's tweaks to prevent the waterway gazetteer blowing up when presented with id=$xxxx
→ Release 9.10.6.1
