[Eclass-users] Notes about EClass.Builder 2.5b2

[Kevin O. <ke...@tu...>]

Hi everyone,

For those of you who downloaded EClass.Builder 2.5 beta 2, I forgot to 
mention a pretty major bug in the HTML editor. It will only allow you 
to save data once per session - to save again, you must close and 
reopen the web page editor. I have *finally* found a fix for this bug 
(it is a problem internal to Mozilla which is why it took me so long to 
figure out a solution) and it will be in the next beta, which will 
hopefully be released in the next couple weeks. In short, just remember 
that the new plugins are very much beta material and still have 
outstanding bugs. The HTML editor is probably the most significant new 
addition in terms of code, and also in terms of bugs, so expect it to 
take more debugging than other pieces.

Also, I am working on improving the FTP uploading code. Now it will 
show its progress both in terms of each individual file, and in terms 
of the "total upload progress". This way, you can see if there is a 
particularly large file which is slowing down the upload, and if there 
are any connection problems they will become very visible. I've also 
ensured that it will not upload the server executable and other large 
files not needed for the web site version, which should decrease upload 
times considerably, especially on dialup connections.

Expect these bug fixes, and some others, to make it into a new release 
within the next couple weeks. Any additional bugs people find that are 
reported will hopefully make it into the next release as well. =)

Thanks,

Kevin
