= KEY ====================
    # Breaks back-compat
    ! Feature
    - Bugfix
      + Sub-comment
    . Internal change
==========================

3.1.2, unknown release date
! %Output.AttrSort for when you need your attributes in alphabetical order to
  deal with a bug in FCKEditor. Requested by frank farmer.
! Enable HTML comments when %HTML.Trusted is on. Requested by Waldo Jaquith.
! Proper support for name attribute. It is now allowed and equivalent to the id
  attribute in a and img tags, and is only converted to id when %HTML.TidyLevel 
  is heavy (for all doctypes).
! %AutoFormat.RemoveEmpty to remove some empty tags from documents. Please don't
  use on hand-written HTML.
! Add error-cases for unsupported elements in MakeWellFormed. This enables
  the strategy to be used, standalone, on untrusted input.
! %Core.AggressivelyFixLt is on by default. This causes more sensible
  processing of left angled brackets in smileys and other whatnot.
! Test scripts now have a 'type' parameter, which lets you say 'htmlpurifier',
  'phpt', 'vtest', etc. in order to only execute those tests. This supercedes
  the --only-phpt parameter, although for backwards-compatibility the flag
  will still work. 
- Fix two bugs in %URI.MakeAbsolute; one involving empty paths in base URLs,
  the other involving an undefined $is_folder error.
- Throw error when %Core.Encoding is set to a spurious value. Previously,
  this errored silently and returned false.
- Redirected stderr to stdout for flush error output.
. Strategy_MakeWellFormed now operates in-place, saving memory and allowing
  for more interesting filter-backtracking
. New HTMLPurifier_Injector->rewind() functionality, allows injectors to rewind
  index to reprocess tokens.
. StringHashParser now allows for multiline sections with "empty" content; 
  previously the section would remain undefined.
. Added --quick option to multitest.php, which tests only the most recent
  release for each series.
. Added --distro option to multitest.php, which accepts either 'normal' or
  'standalone'. This supercedes --exclude-normal and --exclude-standalone

3.1.1, released 2008-06-19
# %URI.Munge now, by default, does not munge resources (for example, <img src="">)
  In order to enable this again, please set %URI.MungeResources to true. 
! More robust imagecrash protection with height/width CSS with %CSS.MaxImgLength,
  and height/width HTML with %HTML.MaxImgLength.
! %URI.MungeSecretKey for secure URI munging. Thanks Chris
  for sponsoring this feature. Check out the corresponding documentation
  for details. (Att Nightly testers: The API for this feature changed before
  the general release. Namely, rename your directives %URI.SecureMungeSecretKey =>
  %URI.MungeSecretKey and and %URI.SecureMunge => %URI.Munge)
! Implemented post URI filtering. Set member variable $post to true to set
  a URIFilter as such.
! Allow modules to define injectors via $info_injector. Injectors are 
  automatically disabled if injector's needed elements are not found.
! Support for "safe" objects added, use %HTML.SafeObject and %HTML.SafeEmbed.
  Thanks Chris for sponsoring. If you've been using ad hoc code from the
  forums, PLEASE use this instead.
! Added substitutions for %e, %n, %a and %p in %URI.Munge (in order,
  embedded, tag name, attribute name, CSS property name). See %URI.Munge
  for more details. Requested by Jochem Blok.
- Disable percent height/width attributes for img.
- AttrValidator operations are now atomic; updates to attributes are not
  manifest in token until end of operations. This prevents naughty internal
  code from directly modifying CurrentToken when they're not supposed to.
  This semantics change was requested by frank farmer.
- Percent encoding checks enabled for URI query and fragment
- Fix stray backslashes in font-family; CSS Unicode character escapes are
  now properly resolved (although *only* in font-family). Thanks Takeshi Terada
  for reporting.
- Improve parseCDATA algorithm to take into account newline normalization
- Account for browser confusion between Yen character and backslash in
  Shift_JIS encoding. This fix generalizes to any other encoding which is not
  a strict superset of printable ASCII. Thanks Takeshi Terada for reporting.
- Fix missing configuration parameter in Generator calls. Thanks vs for the
  partial patch.
- Improved adherence to Unicode by checking for non-character codepoints.
  Thanks Geoffrey Sneddon for reporting. This may result in degraded
  performance for extremely large inputs.
- Allow CSS property-value pair ''text-decoration: none''. Thanks Jochem Blok
  for reporting.
. Added HTMLPurifier_UnitConverter and HTMLPurifier_Length for convenient
  handling of CSS-style lengths. HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_CSS_Length now uses
  this class.
. API of HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_CSS_Length changed from __construct($disable_negative)
  to __construct($min, $max). __construct(true) is equivalent to
  __construct('0').
. Added HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_Switch class
. Rename HTMLPurifier_HTMLModule_Tidy->construct() to setup() and bubble method
  up inheritance hierarchy to HTMLPurifier_HTMLModule. All HTMLModules
  get this called with the configuration object.  All modules now
  use this rather than __construct(), although legacy code using constructors
  will still work--the new format, however, lets modules access the
  configuration object for HTML namespace dependant tweaks.
. AttrDef_HTML_Pixels now takes a single construction parameter, pixels.
. ConfigSchema data-structure heavily optimized; on average it uses a third
  the memory it did previously. The interface has changed accordingly,
  consult changes to HTMLPurifier_Config for details.
. Variable parsing types now are magic integers instead of strings
. Added benchmark for ConfigSchema
. HTMLPurifier_Generator requires $config and $context parameters. If you 
  don't know what they should be, use HTMLPurifier_Config::createDefault()
  and new HTMLPurifier_Context().
. Printers now properly distinguish between output configuration, and 
  target configuration. This is not applicable to scripts using
  the Printers for HTML Purifier related tasks.
. HTML/CSS Printers must be primed with prepareGenerator($gen_config), otherwise
  fatal errors will ensue.
. URIFilter->prepare can return false in order to abort loading of the filter
. Factory for AttrDef_URI implemented, URI#embedded to indicate URI that embeds
  an external resource.
. %URI.Munge functionality factored out into a post-filter class.
. Added CurrentCSSProperty context variable during CSS validation

3.1.0, released 2008-05-18
# Unnecessary references to objects (vestiges of PHP4) removed from method
  signatures.  The following methods do not need references when assigning from
  them and will result in E_STRICT errors if you try:
    + HTMLPurifier_Config->get*Definition() [* = HTML, CSS]
    + HTMLPurifier_ConfigSchema::instance()
    + HTMLPurifier_DefinitionCacheFactory::instance()
    + HTMLPurifier_DefinitionCacheFactory->create()
    + HTMLPurifier_DoctypeRegistry->register()
    + HTMLPurifier_DoctypeRegistry->get()
    + HTMLPurifier_HTMLModule->addElement()
    + HTMLPurifier_HTMLModule->addBlankElement()
    + HTMLPurifier_LanguageFactory::instance()
# Printer_ConfigForm's get*() functions were static-ified
# %HTML.ForbiddenAttributes requires attribute declarations to be in the
  form of tag@attr, NOT tag.attr (which will throw an error and won't do
  anything). This is for forwards compatibility with XML; you'd do best
  to migrate an %HTML.AllowedAttributes directives to this syntax too.
! Allow index to be false for config from form creation
! Added HTMLPurifier::VERSION constant
! Commas, not dashes, used for serializer IDs. This change is forwards-compatible
  and allows for version numbers like "3.1.0-dev".
! %HTML.Allowed deals gracefully with whitespace anywhere, anytime!
! HTML Purifier's URI handling is a lot more robust, with much stricter
  validation checks and better percent encoding handling. Thanks Gareth Heyes
  for indicating security vulnerabilities from lax percent encoding.
! Bootstrap autoloader deals more robustly with classes that don't exist,
  preventing class_exists($class, true) from barfing.
- InterchangeBuilder now alphabetizes its lists
- Validation error in configdoc output fixed
- Iconv and other encoding errors muted even with custom error handlers that
  do not honor error_reporting
- Add protection against imagecrash attack with CSS height/width
- HTMLPurifier::instance() created for consistency, is equivalent to getInstance()
- Fixed and revamped broken ConfigForm smoketest
- Bug with bool/null fields in Printer_ConfigForm fixed
- Bug with global forbidden attributes fixed
- Improved error messages for allowed and forbidden HTML elements and attributes
- Missing (or null) in configdoc documentation restored
- If DOM throws and exception during parsing with PH5P (occurs in newer versions
  of DOM), HTML Purifier punts to DirectLex
- Fatal error with unserialization of ScriptRequired
- Created directories are now chmod'ed properly
- Fixed bug with fallback languages in LanguageFactory
- Standalone testing setup properly with autoload
. Out-of-date documentation revised
. UTF-8 encoding check optimization as suggested by Diego
. HTMLPurifier_Error removed in favor of exceptions
. More copy() function removed; should use clone instead
. More extensive unit tests for HTMLDefinition
. assertPurification moved to central harness
. HTMLPurifier_Generator accepts $config and $context parameters during
  instantiation, not runtime
. Double-quotes outside of attribute values are now unescaped

3.1.0rc1, released 2008-04-22
# Autoload support added. Internal require_once's removed in favor of an
  explicit require list or autoloading. To use HTML Purifier,
  you must now either use HTMLPurifier.auto.php
  or HTMLPurifier.includes.php; setting the include path and including
  HTMLPurifier.php is insufficient--in such cases include HTMLPurifier.autoload.php
  as well to register our autoload handler (or modify your autoload function
  to check HTMLPurifier_Bootstrap::getPath($class)). You can also use
  HTMLPurifier.safe-includes.php for a less performance friendly but more
  user-friendly library load.
# HTMLPurifier_ConfigSchema static functions are officially deprecated. Schema
  information is stored in the ConfigSchema directory, and the
  maintenance/generate-schema-cache.php generates the schema.ser file, which
  is now instantiated. Support for userland schema changes coming soon!
# HTMLPurifier_Config will now throw E_USER_NOTICE when you use a directive
  alias; to get rid of these errors just modify your configuration to use
  the new directive name.
# HTMLPurifier->addFilter is deprecated; built-in filters can now be
  enabled using %Filter.$filter_name or by setting your own filters using
  %Filter.Custom
# Directive-level safety properties superceded in favor of module-level
  safety. Internal method HTMLModule->addElement() has changed, although 
  the externally visible HTMLDefinition->addElement has *not* changed.
! Extra utility classes for testing and non-library operations can
  be found in extras/. Specifically, these are FSTools and ConfigDoc.
  You may find a use for these in your own project, but right now they
  are highly experimental and volatile.
! Integration with PHPT allows for automated smoketests
! Limited support for proprietary HTML elements, namely <marquee>, sponsored
  by Chris. You can enable them with %HTML.Proprietary if your client
  demands them.
! Support for !important CSS cascade modifier. By default, this will be stripped
  from CSS, but you can enable it using %CSS.AllowImportant
! Support for display and visibility CSS properties added, set %CSS.AllowTricky
  to true to use them.
! HTML Purifier now has its own Exception hierarchy under HTMLPurifier_Exception.
  Developer error (not enduser error) can cause these to be triggered.
! Experimental kses() wrapper introduced with HTMLPurifier.kses.php
! Finally %CSS.AllowedProperties for tweaking allowed CSS properties without
  mucking around with HTMLPurifier_CSSDefinition
! ConfigDoc output has been enhanced with version and deprecation info.
! %HTML.ForbiddenAttributes and %HTML.ForbiddenElements implemented.
- Autoclose now operates iteratively, i.e. <span><span><div> now has
  both span tags closed.
- Various HTMLPurifier_Config convenience functions now accept another parameter
  $schema which defines what HTMLPurifier_ConfigSchema to use besides the
  global default.
- Fix bug with trusted script handling in libxml versions later than 2.6.28.
- Fix bug in ExtractStyleBlocks with comments in style tags
- Fix bug in comment parsing for DirectLex
- Flush output now displayed when in command line mode for unit tester
- Fix bug with rgb(0, 1, 2) color syntax with spaces inside shorthand syntax
- HTMLPurifier_HTMLDefinition->addAttribute can now be called multiple times
  on the same element without emitting errors.
- Fixed fatal error in PH5P lexer with invalid tag names
. Plugins now get their own changelogs according to project conventions.
. Convert tokens to use instanceof, reducing memory footprint and
  improving comparison speed.
. Dry runs now supported in SimpleTest; testing facilities improved
. Bootstrap class added for handling autoloading functionality
. Implemented recursive glob at FSTools->globr
. ConfigSchema now has instance methods for all corresponding define* 
  static methods.
. A couple of new historical maintenance scripts were added.
. HTMLPurifier/HTMLModule/Tidy/XHTMLAndHTML4.php split into two files
. tests/index.php can now be run from any directory.
. HTMLPurifier_Token subclasses split into seperate files
. HTMLPURIFIER_PREFIX now is defined in Bootstrap.php, NOT HTMLPurifier.php
. HTMLPURIFIER_PREFIX can now be defined outside of HTML Purifier
. New --php=php flag added, allows PHP executable to be specified (command
  line only!)
. htmlpurifier_add_test() preferred method to translate test files in to
  classes, because it handles PHPT files too.
. Debugger class is deprecated and will be removed soon.
. Command line argument parsing for testing scripts revamped, now --opt value
  format is supported.
. Smoketests now cleanup after magic quotes
. Generator now can output comments (however, comments are still stripped
  from HTML Purifier output)
. HTMLPurifier_ConfigSchema->validate() deprecated in favor of
  HTMLPurifier_VarParser->parse()
. Integers auto-cast into float type by VarParser.
. HTMLPURIFIER_STRICT removed; no validation is performed on runtime, only 
  during cache generation
. Reordered script calls in maintenance/flush.php
. Command line scripts now honor exit codes
. When --flush fails in unit testers, abort tests and print message
. Improved documentation in docs/dev-flush.html about the maintenance scripts
. copy() methods removed in favor of clone keyword

3.0.0, released 2008-01-06
# HTML Purifier is PHP 5 only! The 2.1.x branch will be maintained
  until PHP 4 is completely deprecated, but no new features will be added
  to it.
  + Visibility declarations added
  + Constructor methods renamed to __construct()
  + PHP4 reference cruft removed (in progress)
! CSS properties are now case-insensitive
! DefinitionCacheFactory now can register new implementations
! New HTMLPurifier_Filter_ExtractStyleBlocks for extracting <style> from
  documents and cleaning their contents up. Requires the CSSTidy library
  <http://csstidy.sourceforge.net/>. You can access the blocks with the
  'StyleBlocks' Context variable ($purifier->context->get('StyleBlocks')).
  The output CSS can also be "scoped" for a specific element, use:
  %Filter.ExtractStyleBlocksScope
! Experimental support for some proprietary CSS attributes allowed:
  opacity (and all of the browser-specific equivalents) and scrollbar colors.
  Enable by setting %CSS.Proprietary to true.
- Colors missing # but in hex form will be corrected
- CSS Number algorithm improved
- Unit testing and multi-testing now on steroids: command lines,
  XML output, and other goodies now added.
. Unit tests for Injector improved
. New classes:
  + HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_CSS_AlphaValue
  + HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_CSS_Filter
. Multitest now has a file docblock

2.1.3, released 2007-11-05
! tests/multitest.php allows you to test multiple versions by running
  tests/index.php through multiple interpreters using `phpv` shell
  script (you must provide this script!)
- Fixed poor include ordering for Email URI AttrDefs, causes fatal errors
  on some systems.
- Injector algorithm further refined: off-by-one error regarding skip 
  counts for dormant injectors fixed
- Corrective blockquote definition now enabled for HTML 4.01 Strict
- Fatal error when <img> tag (or any other element with required attributes)
  has 'id' attribute fixed, thanks NykO18 for reporting
- Fix warning emitted when a non-supported URI scheme is passed to the
  MakeAbsolute URIFilter, thanks NykO18 (again)
- Further refine AutoParagraph injector. Behavior inside of elements
  allowing paragraph tags clarified: only inline content delimeted by
  double newlines (not block elements) are paragraphed.
- Buggy treatment of end tags of elements that have required attributes
  fixed (does not manifest on default tag-set)
- Spurious internal content reorganization error suppressed
- HTMLDefinition->addElement now returns a reference to the created
  element object, as implied by the documentation
- Phorum mod's HTML Purifier help message expanded (unreleased elsewhere)
- Fix a theoretical class of infinite loops from DirectLex reported
  by Nate Abele
- Work around unnecessary DOMElement type-cast in PH5P that caused errors
  in PHP 5.1
- Work around PHP 4 SimpleTest lack-of-error complaining for one-time-only
  HTMLDefinition errors, this may indicate problems with error-collecting
  facilities in PHP 5
- Make ErrorCollectorEMock work in both PHP 4 and PHP 5
- Make PH5P work with PHP 5.0 by removing unnecessary array parameter typedef
. %Core.AcceptFullDocuments renamed to %Core.ConvertDocumentToFragment 
  to better communicate its purpose
. Error unit tests can now specify the expectation of no errors. Future
  iterations of the harness will be extremely strict about what errors
  are allowed
. Extend Injector hooks to allow for more powerful injector routines
. HTMLDefinition->addBlankElement created, as according to the HTMLModule
  method
. Doxygen configuration file updated, with minor improvements
. Test runner now checks for similarly named files in conf/ directory too.
. Minor cosmetic change to flush-definition-cache.php: trailing newline is
  outputted
. Maintenance script for generating PH5P patch added, original PH5P source
  file also added under version control
. Full unit test runner script title made more descriptive with PHP version
. Updated INSTALL file to state that 4.3.7 is the earliest version we
  are actively testing

2.1.2, released 2007-09-03
! Implemented Object module for trusted users
! Implemented experimental HTML5 parsing mode using PH5P. To use, add
  this to your code:
        require_once 'HTMLPurifier/Lexer/PH5P.php';
        $config->set('Core', 'LexerImpl', 'PH5P');
  Note that this Lexer introduces some classes not in the HTMLPurifier
  namespace.  Also, this is PHP5 only.
! CSS property border-spacing implemented
- Fix non-visible parsing error in DirectLex with empty tags that have
  slashes inside attribute values.
- Fix typo in CSS definition: border-collapse:seperate; was incorrectly
  accepted as valid CSS. Usually non-visible, because this styling is the
  default for tables in most browsers. Thanks Brett Zamir for pointing
  this out.
- Fix validation errors in configuration form
- Hammer out a bunch of edge-case bugs in the standalone distribution
- Inclusion reflection removed from URISchemeRegistry; you must manually
  include any new schema files you wish to use
- Numerous typo fixes in documentation thanks to Brett Zamir
. Unit test refactoring for one logical test per test function
. Config and context parameters in ComplexHarness deprecated: instead, edit
  the $config and $context member variables
. HTML wrapper in DOMLex now takes DTD identifiers into account; doesn't
  really make a difference, but is good for completeness sake
. merge-library.php script refactored for greater code reusability and
  PHP4 compatibility

2.1.1, released 2007-08-04
- Fix show-stopper bug in %URI.MakeAbsolute functionality
- Fix PHP4 syntax error in standalone version
. Add prefix directory to include path for standalone, this prevents
  other installations from clobbering the standalone's URI schemes
. Single test methods can be invoked by prefixing with __only

2.1.0, released 2007-08-02
# flush-htmldefinition-cache.php superseded in favor of a generic
  flush-definition-cache.php script, you can clear a specific cache
  by passing its name as a parameter to the script
! Phorum mod implemented for HTML Purifier
! With %Core.AggressivelyFixLt, <3 and similar emoticons no longer
  trigger HTML removal in PHP5 (DOMLex). This directive is not necessary
  for PHP4 (DirectLex).
! Standalone file now available, which greatly reduces the amount of
  includes (although there are still a few files that reside in the
  standalone folder)
! Relative URIs can now be transformed into their absolute equivalents
  using %URI.Base and %URI.MakeAbsolute
! Ruby implemented for XHTML 1.1
! You can now define custom URI filtering behavior, see enduser-uri-filter.html
  for more details
! UTF-8 font names now supported in CSS
- AutoFormatters emit friendly error messages if tags or attributes they
  need are not allowed
- ConfigForm's compactification of directive names is now configurable
- AutoParagraph autoformatter algorithm refined after field-testing
- XHTML 1.1 now applies XHTML 1.0 Strict cleanup routines, namely
  blockquote wrapping
- Contents of <style> tags removed by default when tags are removed
. HTMLPurifier_Config->getSerial() implemented, this is extremely useful
  for output cache invalidation
. ConfigForm printer now can retrieve CSS and JS files as strings, in
  case HTML Purifier's directory is not publically accessible
. Introduce new text/itext configuration directive values: these represent
  longer strings that would be more appropriately edited with a textarea
. Allow newlines to act as separators for lists, hashes, lookups and
  %HTML.Allowed
. ConfigForm generates textareas instead of text inputs for lists, hashes,
  lookups, text and itext fields
. Hidden element content removal genericized: %Core.HiddenElements can
  be used to customize this behavior, by default <script> and <style> are
  hidden
. Added HTMLPURIFIER_PREFIX constant, should be used instead of dirname(__FILE__)
. Custom ChildDef added to default include list
. URIScheme reflection improved: will not attempt to include file if class
  already exists. May clobber autoload, so I need to keep an eye on it
. ConfigSchema heavily optimized, will only collect information and validate
  definitions when HTMLPURIFIER_SCHEMA_STRICT is true.
. AttrDef_URI unit tests and implementation refactored
. benchmarks/ directory now protected from public view with .htaccess file;
  run the tests via command line
. URI scheme is munged off if there is no authority and the scheme is the
  default one
. All unit tests inherit from HTMLPurifier_Harness, not UnitTestCase
. Interface for URIScheme changed
. Generic URI object to hold components of URI added, most systems involved
  in URI validation have been migrated to use it
. Custom filtering for URIs factored out to URIDefinition interface for
  maximum extensibility

2.0.1, released 2007-06-27
! Tag auto-closing now based on a ChildDef heuristic rather than a
  manually set auto_close array; some behavior may change
! Experimental AutoFormat functionality added: auto-paragraph and
  linkify your HTML input by setting %AutoFormat.AutoParagraph and
  %AutoFormat.Linkify to true
! Newlines normalized internally, and then converted back to the
  value of PHP_EOL. If this is not desired, set your newline format
  using %Output.Newline.
! Beta error collection, messages are implemented for the most generic
  cases involving Lexing or Strategies
- Clean up special case code for <script> tags
- Reorder includes for DefinitionCache decorators, fixes a possible
  missing class error
- Fixed bug where manually modified definitions were not saved via cache
  (mostly harmless, except for the fact that it would be a little slower)
- Configuration objects with different serials do not clobber each
  others when revision numbers are unequal
- Improve Serializer DefinitionCache directory permissions checks
- DefinitionCache no longer throws errors when it encounters old
  serial files that do not conform to the current style
- Stray xmlns attributes removed from configuration documentation
- configForm.php smoketest no longer has XSS vulnerability due to
  unescaped print_r output
- Printer adheres to configuration's directives on output format
- Fix improperly named form field in ConfigForm printer
. Rewire some test-cases to swallow errors rather than expect them
. HTMLDefinition printer updated with some of the new attributes
. DefinitionCache keys reordered to reflect precedence: version number,
  hash, then revision number
. %Core.DefinitionCache renamed to %Cache.DefinitionImpl
. Interlinking in configuration documentation added using
  Injector_PurifierLinkify
. Directives now keep track of aliases to themselves
. Error collector now requires a severity to be passed, use PHP's internal
  error constants for this
. HTMLPurifier_Config::getAllowedDirectivesForForm implemented, allows
  much easier selective embedding of configuration values
. Doctype objects now accept public and system DTD identifiers
. %HTML.Doctype is now constrained by specific values, to specify a custom
  doctype use new %HTML.CustomDoctype
. ConfigForm truncates long directives to keep the form small, and does
  not re-output namespaces

2.0.0, released 2007-06-20
# Completely refactored HTMLModuleManager, decentralizing safety
  information
# Transform modules changed to Tidy modules, which offer more flexibility
  and better modularization
# Configuration object now finalizes itself when a read operation is
  performed on it, ensuring that its internal state stays consistent.
  To revert this behavior, you can set the $autoFinalize member variable 
  off, but it's not recommended.
# New compact syntax for AttrDef objects that can be used to instantiate
  new objects via make()
# Definitions (esp. HTMLDefinition) are now cached for a significant
  performance boost. You can disable caching by setting %Core.DefinitionCache
  to null. You CANNOT edit raw definitions without setting the corresponding
  DefinitionID directive (%HTML.DefinitionID for HTMLDefinition).
# Contents between <script> tags are now completely removed if <script>
  is not allowed
# Prototype-declarations for Lexer removed in favor of configuration
  determination of Lexer implementations.
! HTML Purifier now works in PHP 4.3.2.

! All deprecated elements now natively supported
! Implement TinyMCE styled whitelist specification format in
  %HTML.Allowed
! Config object gives more friendly error messages when things go wrong

  and attributes (addAttribute) on HTMLDefinition
! Add native support for required attributes
- Deprecated and removed EnableRedundantUTF8Cleaning. It didn't even work!
- DOMLex will not emit errors when a custom error handler that does not
  honor error_reporting is used
- StrictBlockquote child definition refrains from wrapping whitespace
  in tags now.
- Bug resulting from tag transforms to non-allowed elements fixed
- ChildDef_Custom's regex generation has been improved, removing several
  false positives
. Unit test for ElementDef created, ElementDef behavior modified to
  be more flexible
. Added convenience functions for HTMLModule constructors
. AttrTypes now has accessor functions that should be used instead
  of directly manipulating info
. TagTransform_Center deprecated in favor of generic TagTransform_Simple
. Add extra protection in AttrDef_URI against phantom Schemes

  of the operational document type
. Lexer is now pre-emptively included, with a conditional include for the
  PHP5 only version.

. Preliminary error collector is in place, although no code actually reports
  errors yet
. Factor out most of ValidateAttributes to new AttrValidator class

1.6.1, released 2007-05-05
! Support for more deprecated attributes via transformations:
  + hspace and vspace in img
  + size and noshade in hr
  + nowrap in td
  + clear in br
  + align in caption, table, img and hr
  + type in ul, ol and li
! DirectLex now preserves text in which a < bracket is followed by
  a non-alphanumeric character. This means that certain emoticons
  are now preserved.
! %Core.RemoveInvalidImg is now operational, when set to false invalid
  images will hang around with an empty src
! target attribute in a tag supported, use %Attr.AllowedFrameTargets
  to enable
! CSS property white-space now allows nowrap (supported in all modern
  browsers) but not others (which have spotty browser implementations)
! XHTML 1.1 mode now sort-of works without any fatal errors, and
  lang is now moved over to xml:lang.
! Attribute transformation smoketest available at smoketests/attrTransform.php
! Transformation of font's size attribute now handles super-large numbers
- Possibly fatal bug with __autoload() fixed in module manager
- Invert HTMLModuleManager->addModule() processing order to check
  prefixes first and then the literal module
- Empty strings get converted to empty arrays instead of arrays with
  an empty string in them.
- Merging in attribute lists now works.
. Demo script removed: it has been added to the website's repository
. Basic.php script modified to work out of the box
. Refactor AttrTransform classes to reduce duplication
. AttrTransform_TextAlign axed in favor of a more general
  AttrTransform_EnumToCSS, refer to HTMLModule/TransformToStrict.php to
  see how the new equivalent is implemented
. Unit tests now use exclusively assertIdentical
 
1.6.0, released 2007-04-01
! Support for most common deprecated attributes via transformations:
  + bgcolor in td, th, tr and table
  + border in img
  + name in a and img
  + width in td, th and hr
  + height in td, th
! Support for CSS attribute 'height' added

  and %Attr.AllowedRev to activate
- You can define ID blacklists using regular expressions via
  %Attr.IDBlacklistRegexp
- Error messages are emitted when you attempt to "allow" elements or
  attributes that HTML Purifier does not support
- Fix segfault in unit test. The problem is not very reproduceable and
  I don't know what causes it, but a six line patch fixed it.

1.5.0, released 2007-03-23
! Added a rudimentary I18N and L10N system modeled off MediaWiki. It
  doesn't actually do anything yet, but keep your eyes peeled.
! docs/enduser-utf8.html explains how to use UTF-8 and HTML Purifier
! Newly structured HTMLDefinition modeled off of XHTML 1.1 modules.
  I am loathe to release beta quality APIs, but this is exactly that;
  don't use the internal interfaces if you're not willing to do migration
  later on.
- Allow 'x' subtag in language codes
- Fixed buggy chameleon-support for ins and del
. Added support for IDREF attributes (i.e. for)
. Renamed HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_Class to HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_Nmtokens
. Removed context variable ParentType, replaced with IsInline, which
  is false when you're not inline and an integer of the parent that
  caused you to become inline when you are (so possibly zero)
. Removed ElementDef->type in favor of ElementDef->descendants_are_inline
  and HTMLDefinition->content_sets
. StrictBlockquote now reports what elements its supposed to allow,
  rather than what it does allow
. Removed HTMLDefinition->info_flow_elements in favor of
  HTMLDefinition->content_sets['Flow']
. Removed redundant "exclusionary" definitions from DTD roster
. StrictBlockquote now requires a construction parameter as if it
  were an Required ChildDef, this is the "real" set of allowed elements
. AttrDef partitioned into HTML, CSS and URI segments
. Modify Youtube filter regexp to be multiline
. Require both PHP5 and DOM extension in order to use DOMLex, fixes
  some edge cases where a DOMDocument class exists in a PHP4 environment
  due to DOM XML extension.

  Khoo)

! New directives %URI.DisableExternalResources and %URI.DisableResources
! New directive %Attr.DisableURI, which eliminates all hyperlinking
! New directive %URI.Munge, munges URI so you can use some sort of redirector
  service to avoid PageRank leaks or warn users that they are exiting your site.
! Added spiffy new smoketest printDefinition.php, which lets you twiddle with
  the configuration settings and see how the internal rules are affected.
! New directive %URI.HostBlacklist for blocking links to bad hosts.
  xssAttacks.php smoketest updated accordingly.

    so that they don't collide with your IDs

    instances of user content on the page
