[phpslice-devel] upcomming 0.1.9 release

[Paul R. <pu...@hi...>]

Hello dev-team,

here is a copy&paste of my phpslice.com article:

i have been working all the night, and have implemented a feature for
handling images in news content. next beta will be released very
soon. here are some basic features:

- works only in post news. I think its not a good idea to let
  foregin people upload files on your server. maybe i will do
  some further fileprocessing (mime type parsing) to make
  sure, the uploaded file is an image.

- seamles integration into the news-editing gui. you can upload,
  delete, preview and align the images as easy you edit news.

- you can upload a thumbnail and a full resolution image. if a full
  resolution image is available, the thumbnail automatically links to
  the big one (will be displayed on a extra page, you can do further
  layout work there if you wish)

- uploading is done via form-uploads

if you want more than one image per news, please use <img> tag and upload
them by yourself using ftp, webdav or whatever. i have made the list of
allowable tags in newsentries accessable in config.php, so you can
insert the img tag there.

todo:

- fix a minior bug, when deleting an image in preview mode, the image
  is still there until you commit your changes.

- recursive file deleting (means, when you delete a news entry, its
  images will be deleted too)

- adapting the mysql changes (very minior ones) for mssql, postgres.
  anyone of you maybe ?

Beside the image-thing, i have implemented a "macro engine" (well, 3 lines
of regex code). instead of getting mad typing links in news you can
simply type ["http://--whatever--"MyFancySite"] . it will automatically
create a link and set its target to a new browserwindow. please tell
me what kind of macros do you else need.

so.. . cvs update will follow tomorrow (if i dont find serious bugs),
and as soon we have tested it and found it "bugfree" (whatever it is *g*),
the 0.1.9 might be released.

goodnight :)
