1 NEWS ( CHANGELOG and HISTORY ) HTMLPurifier
2 |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4 = KEY ====================
10 ==========================
12 4.0.0, unknown release date
13 # APIs for ConfigSchema subsystem have substantially changed. See
14 docs/dev-config-bcbreaks.txt for details; in essence, anything that
15 had both namespace and directive now have a single unified key.
16 # Some configuration directives were renamed, specifically:
17 %AutoFormatParam.PurifierLinkifyDocURL -> %AutoFormat.PurifierLinkify.DocURL
18 %FilterParam.ExtractStyleBlocksEscaping -> %Filter.ExtractStyleBlocks.Escaping
19 %FilterParam.ExtractStyleBlocksScope -> %Filter.ExtractStyleBlocks.Scope
20 %FilterParam.ExtractStyleBlocksTidyImpl -> %Filter.ExtractStyleBlocks.TidyImpl
21 As usual, the old directive names will still work, but will throw E_NOTICE
23 # The allowed values for class have been relaxed to allow all of CDATA for
24 doctypes that are not XHTML 1.1 or XHTML 2.0. For old behavior, set
25 %Attr.ClassUseCDATA to false.
26 ! More robust support for name="" and id=""
27 ! HTMLPurifier_Config::inherit($config) allows you to inherit one
28 configuration, and have changes to that configuration be propagated
29 to all of its children.
30 ! Implement %HTML.Attr.Name.UseCDATA, which relaxes validation rules on
31 the name attribute when set. Use with care. Thanks Ian Cook for
33 ! Implement %AutoFormat.RemoveEmpty.RemoveNbsp, which removes empty
34 tags that contain non-breaking spaces as well other whitespace. You
35 can also modify which tags should have maintained with
36 %AutoFormat.RemoveEmpty.RemoveNbsp.Exceptions.
37 ! Implement %Attr.AllowedClasses, which allows administrators to restrict
38 classes users can use to a specified finite set of classes, and
39 %Attr.ForbiddenClasses, which is the logical inverse.
40 ! You can now maintain your own configuration schema directories by
41 creating a config-schema.php file or passing an extra argument. Check
42 docs/dev-config-schema.html for more details.
43 - Fix bug where URIDefinition would not get cleared if it's directives got
45 - Fix fatal error in HTMLPurifier_Encoder on certain platforms (probably NetBSD 5.0)
46 . Created script maintenance/rename-config.php for renaming a configuration
47 directive while maintaining its alias. This script does not change source code.
48 . Implement namespace locking for definition construction, to prevent
49 bugs where a directive is used for definition construction but is not
50 used to construct the cache hash.
52 3.3.0, released 2009-02-16
53 ! Implement CSS property 'overflow' when %CSS.AllowTricky is true.
54 ! Implement generic property list classess
55 - Fix bug with testEncodingSupportsASCII() algorithm when iconv() implementation
56 does not do the "right thing" with characters not supported in the output
58 - Spellcheck UTF-8: The Secret To Character Encoding
59 - Fix improper removal of the contents of elements with only whitespace. Thanks
60 Eric Wald for reporting.
61 - Fix broken test suite in versions of PHP without spl_autoload_register()
62 - Fix degenerate case with YouTube filter involving double hyphens.
63 Thanks Pierre Attar for reporting.
64 - Fix YouTube rendering problem on certain versions of Firefox.
65 - Fix CSSDefinition Printer problems with decorators
66 - Add text parameter to unit tests, forces text output
67 . Add verbose mode to command line test runner, use (--verbose)
68 . Turn on unit tests for UnitConverter
69 . Fix missing version number in configuration %Attr.DefaultImageAlt (added 3.2.0)
70 . Fix newline errors that caused spurious failures when CRLF HTML Purifier was
72 . Removed trailing whitespace from all text files, see
73 remote-trailing-whitespace.php maintenance script.
74 . Convert configuration to use property list backend.
76 3.2.0, released 2008-10-31
77 # Using %Core.CollectErrors forces line number/column tracking on, whereas
78 previously you could theoretically turn it off.
79 # HTMLPurifier_Injector->notifyEnd() is formally deprecated. Please
80 use handleEnd() instead.
81 ! %Output.AttrSort for when you need your attributes in alphabetical order to
82 deal with a bug in FCKEditor. Requested by frank farmer.
83 ! Enable HTML comments when %HTML.Trusted is on. Requested by Waldo Jaquith.
84 ! Proper support for name attribute. It is now allowed and equivalent to the id
85 attribute in a and img tags, and is only converted to id when %HTML.TidyLevel
86 is heavy (for all doctypes).
87 ! %AutoFormat.RemoveEmpty to remove some empty tags from documents. Please don't
88 use on hand-written HTML.
89 ! Add error-cases for unsupported elements in MakeWellFormed. This enables
90 the strategy to be used, standalone, on untrusted input.
91 ! %Core.AggressivelyFixLt is on by default. This causes more sensible
92 processing of left angled brackets in smileys and other whatnot.
93 ! Test scripts now have a 'type' parameter, which lets you say 'htmlpurifier',
94 'phpt', 'vtest', etc. in order to only execute those tests. This supercedes
95 the --only-phpt parameter, although for backwards-compatibility the flag
97 ! AutoParagraph auto-formatter will now preserve double-newlines upon output.
98 Users who are not performing inbound filtering, this may seem a little
99 useless, but as a bonus, the test suite and handling of edge cases is also
101 ! Experimental implementation of forms for %HTML.Trusted
102 ! Track column numbers when maintain line numbers is on
103 ! Proprietary 'background' attribute on table-related elements converted into
104 corresponding CSS. Thanks Fusemail for sponsoring this feature!
105 ! Add forward(), forwardUntilEndToken(), backward() and current() to Injector
107 ! HTMLPurifier_Injector->handleEnd() permits modification to end tokens. The
108 time of operation varies slightly from notifyEnd() as *all* end tokens are
109 processed by the injector before they are subject to the well-formedness rules.
110 ! %Attr.DefaultImageAlt allows overriding default behavior of setting alt to
111 basename of image when not present.
112 ! %AutoFormat.DisplayLinkURI neuters <a> tags into plain text URLs.
113 - Fix two bugs in %URI.MakeAbsolute; one involving empty paths in base URLs,
114 the other involving an undefined $is_folder error.
115 - Throw error when %Core.Encoding is set to a spurious value. Previously,
116 this errored silently and returned false.
117 - Redirected stderr to stdout for flush error output.
118 - %URI.DisableExternal will now use the host in %URI.Base if %URI.Host is not
120 - Do not re-munge URL if the output URL has the same host as the input URL.
122 - Fix error in documentation regarding %Filter.ExtractStyleBlocks
123 - Prevent <![CDATA[<body></body>]]> from triggering %Core.ConvertDocumentToFragment
124 - Fix bug with inline elements in blockquotes conflicting with strict doctype
125 - Detect if HTML support is disabled for DOM by checking for loadHTML() method.
126 - Fix bug where dots and double-dots in absolute URLs without hostname were
127 not collapsed by URIFilter_MakeAbsolute.
128 - Fix bug with anonymous modules operating on SafeEmbed or SafeObject elements
129 by reordering their addition.
130 - Will now throw exception on many error conditions during lexer creation; also
131 throw an exception when MaintainLineNumbers is true, but a non-tracksLineNumbers
133 - Detect if domxml extension is loaded, and use DirectLEx accordingly.
134 - Improve handling of big numbers with floating point arithmetic in UnitConverter.
135 Reported by David Morton.
136 . Strategy_MakeWellFormed now operates in-place, saving memory and allowing
137 for more interesting filter-backtracking
138 . New HTMLPurifier_Injector->rewind() functionality, allows injectors to rewind
139 index to reprocess tokens.
140 . StringHashParser now allows for multiline sections with "empty" content;
141 previously the section would remain undefined.
142 . Added --quick option to multitest.php, which tests only the most recent
143 release for each series.
144 . Added --distro option to multitest.php, which accepts either 'normal' or
145 'standalone'. This supercedes --exclude-normal and --exclude-standalone
147 3.1.1, released 2008-06-19
148 # %URI.Munge now, by default, does not munge resources (for example, <img src="">)
149 In order to enable this again, please set %URI.MungeResources to true.
150 ! More robust imagecrash protection with height/width CSS with %CSS.MaxImgLength,
151 and height/width HTML with %HTML.MaxImgLength.
152 ! %URI.MungeSecretKey for secure URI munging. Thanks Chris
153 for sponsoring this feature. Check out the corresponding documentation
154 for details. (Att Nightly testers: The API for this feature changed before
155 the general release. Namely, rename your directives %URI.SecureMungeSecretKey =>
156 %URI.MungeSecretKey and and %URI.SecureMunge => %URI.Munge)
157 ! Implemented post URI filtering. Set member variable $post to true to set
159 ! Allow modules to define injectors via $info_injector. Injectors are
160 automatically disabled if injector's needed elements are not found.
161 ! Support for "safe" objects added, use %HTML.SafeObject and %HTML.SafeEmbed.
162 Thanks Chris for sponsoring. If you've been using ad hoc code from the
163 forums, PLEASE use this instead.
164 ! Added substitutions for %e, %n, %a and %p in %URI.Munge (in order,
165 embedded, tag name, attribute name, CSS property name). See %URI.Munge
166 for more details. Requested by Jochem Blok.
167 - Disable percent height/width attributes for img.
168 - AttrValidator operations are now atomic; updates to attributes are not
169 manifest in token until end of operations. This prevents naughty internal
170 code from directly modifying CurrentToken when they're not supposed to.
171 This semantics change was requested by frank farmer.
172 - Percent encoding checks enabled for URI query and fragment
173 - Fix stray backslashes in font-family; CSS Unicode character escapes are
174 now properly resolved (although *only* in font-family). Thanks Takeshi Terada
176 - Improve parseCDATA algorithm to take into account newline normalization
177 - Account for browser confusion between Yen character and backslash in
178 Shift_JIS encoding. This fix generalizes to any other encoding which is not
179 a strict superset of printable ASCII. Thanks Takeshi Terada for reporting.
180 - Fix missing configuration parameter in Generator calls. Thanks vs for the
182 - Improved adherence to Unicode by checking for non-character codepoints.
183 Thanks Geoffrey Sneddon for reporting. This may result in degraded
184 performance for extremely large inputs.
185 - Allow CSS property-value pair ''text-decoration: none''. Thanks Jochem Blok
187 . Added HTMLPurifier_UnitConverter and HTMLPurifier_Length for convenient
188 handling of CSS-style lengths. HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_CSS_Length now uses
190 . API of HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_CSS_Length changed from __construct($disable_negative)
191 to __construct($min, $max). __construct(true) is equivalent to
193 . Added HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_Switch class
194 . Rename HTMLPurifier_HTMLModule_Tidy->construct() to setup() and bubble method
195 up inheritance hierarchy to HTMLPurifier_HTMLModule. All HTMLModules
196 get this called with the configuration object. All modules now
197 use this rather than __construct(), although legacy code using constructors
198 will still work--the new format, however, lets modules access the
199 configuration object for HTML namespace dependant tweaks.
200 . AttrDef_HTML_Pixels now takes a single construction parameter, pixels.
201 . ConfigSchema data-structure heavily optimized; on average it uses a third
202 the memory it did previously. The interface has changed accordingly,
203 consult changes to HTMLPurifier_Config for details.
204 . Variable parsing types now are magic integers instead of strings
205 . Added benchmark for ConfigSchema
206 . HTMLPurifier_Generator requires $config and $context parameters. If you
207 don't know what they should be, use HTMLPurifier_Config::createDefault()
208 and new HTMLPurifier_Context().
209 . Printers now properly distinguish between output configuration, and
210 target configuration. This is not applicable to scripts using
211 the Printers for HTML Purifier related tasks.
212 . HTML/CSS Printers must be primed with prepareGenerator($gen_config), otherwise
213 fatal errors will ensue.
214 . URIFilter->prepare can return false in order to abort loading of the filter
215 . Factory for AttrDef_URI implemented, URI#embedded to indicate URI that embeds
216 an external resource.
217 . %URI.Munge functionality factored out into a post-filter class.
218 . Added CurrentCSSProperty context variable during CSS validation
220 3.1.0, released 2008-05-18
221 # Unnecessary references to objects (vestiges of PHP4) removed from method
222 signatures. The following methods do not need references when assigning from
223 them and will result in E_STRICT errors if you try:
224 + HTMLPurifier_Config->get*Definition() [* = HTML, CSS]
225 + HTMLPurifier_ConfigSchema::instance()
226 + HTMLPurifier_DefinitionCacheFactory::instance()
227 + HTMLPurifier_DefinitionCacheFactory->create()
228 + HTMLPurifier_DoctypeRegistry->register()
229 + HTMLPurifier_DoctypeRegistry->get()
230 + HTMLPurifier_HTMLModule->addElement()
231 + HTMLPurifier_HTMLModule->addBlankElement()
232 + HTMLPurifier_LanguageFactory::instance()
233 # Printer_ConfigForm's get*() functions were static-ified
234 # %HTML.ForbiddenAttributes requires attribute declarations to be in the
235 form of tag@attr, NOT tag.attr (which will throw an error and won't do
236 anything). This is for forwards compatibility with XML; you'd do best
237 to migrate an %HTML.AllowedAttributes directives to this syntax too.
238 ! Allow index to be false for config from form creation
239 ! Added HTMLPurifier::VERSION constant
240 ! Commas, not dashes, used for serializer IDs. This change is forwards-compatible
241 and allows for version numbers like "3.1.0-dev".
242 ! %HTML.Allowed deals gracefully with whitespace anywhere, anytime!
243 ! HTML Purifier's URI handling is a lot more robust, with much stricter
244 validation checks and better percent encoding handling. Thanks Gareth Heyes
245 for indicating security vulnerabilities from lax percent encoding.
246 ! Bootstrap autoloader deals more robustly with classes that don't exist,
247 preventing class_exists($class, true) from barfing.
248 - InterchangeBuilder now alphabetizes its lists
249 - Validation error in configdoc output fixed
250 - Iconv and other encoding errors muted even with custom error handlers that
251 do not honor error_reporting
252 - Add protection against imagecrash attack with CSS height/width
253 - HTMLPurifier::instance() created for consistency, is equivalent to getInstance()
254 - Fixed and revamped broken ConfigForm smoketest
255 - Bug with bool/null fields in Printer_ConfigForm fixed
256 - Bug with global forbidden attributes fixed
257 - Improved error messages for allowed and forbidden HTML elements and attributes
258 - Missing (or null) in configdoc documentation restored
259 - If DOM throws and exception during parsing with PH5P (occurs in newer versions
260 of DOM), HTML Purifier punts to DirectLex
261 - Fatal error with unserialization of ScriptRequired
262 - Created directories are now chmod'ed properly
263 - Fixed bug with fallback languages in LanguageFactory
264 - Standalone testing setup properly with autoload
265 . Out-of-date documentation revised
266 . UTF-8 encoding check optimization as suggested by Diego
267 . HTMLPurifier_Error removed in favor of exceptions
268 . More copy() function removed; should use clone instead
269 . More extensive unit tests for HTMLDefinition
270 . assertPurification moved to central harness
271 . HTMLPurifier_Generator accepts $config and $context parameters during
272 instantiation, not runtime
273 . Double-quotes outside of attribute values are now unescaped
275 3.1.0rc1, released 2008-04-22
276 # Autoload support added. Internal require_once's removed in favor of an
277 explicit require list or autoloading. To use HTML Purifier,
278 you must now either use HTMLPurifier.auto.php
279 or HTMLPurifier.includes.php; setting the include path and including
280 HTMLPurifier.php is insufficient--in such cases include HTMLPurifier.autoload.php
281 as well to register our autoload handler (or modify your autoload function
282 to check HTMLPurifier_Bootstrap::getPath($class)). You can also use
283 HTMLPurifier.safe-includes.php for a less performance friendly but more
284 user-friendly library load.
285 # HTMLPurifier_ConfigSchema static functions are officially deprecated. Schema
286 information is stored in the ConfigSchema directory, and the
287 maintenance/generate-schema-cache.php generates the schema.ser file, which
288 is now instantiated. Support for userland schema changes coming soon!
289 # HTMLPurifier_Config will now throw E_USER_NOTICE when you use a directive
290 alias; to get rid of these errors just modify your configuration to use
291 the new directive name.
292 # HTMLPurifier->addFilter is deprecated; built-in filters can now be
293 enabled using %Filter.$filter_name or by setting your own filters using
295 # Directive-level safety properties superceded in favor of module-level
296 safety. Internal method HTMLModule->addElement() has changed, although
297 the externally visible HTMLDefinition->addElement has *not* changed.
298 ! Extra utility classes for testing and non-library operations can
299 be found in extras/. Specifically, these are FSTools and ConfigDoc.
300 You may find a use for these in your own project, but right now they
301 are highly experimental and volatile.
302 ! Integration with PHPT allows for automated smoketests
303 ! Limited support for proprietary HTML elements, namely <marquee>, sponsored
304 by Chris. You can enable them with %HTML.Proprietary if your client
306 ! Support for !important CSS cascade modifier. By default, this will be stripped
307 from CSS, but you can enable it using %CSS.AllowImportant
308 ! Support for display and visibility CSS properties added, set %CSS.AllowTricky
310 ! HTML Purifier now has its own Exception hierarchy under HTMLPurifier_Exception.
311 Developer error (not enduser error) can cause these to be triggered.
312 ! Experimental kses() wrapper introduced with HTMLPurifier.kses.php
313 ! Finally %CSS.AllowedProperties for tweaking allowed CSS properties without
314 mucking around with HTMLPurifier_CSSDefinition
315 ! ConfigDoc output has been enhanced with version and deprecation info.
316 ! %HTML.ForbiddenAttributes and %HTML.ForbiddenElements implemented.
317 - Autoclose now operates iteratively, i.e. <span><span><div> now has
318 both span tags closed.
319 - Various HTMLPurifier_Config convenience functions now accept another parameter
320 $schema which defines what HTMLPurifier_ConfigSchema to use besides the
322 - Fix bug with trusted script handling in libxml versions later than 2.6.28.
323 - Fix bug in ExtractStyleBlocks with comments in style tags
324 - Fix bug in comment parsing for DirectLex
325 - Flush output now displayed when in command line mode for unit tester
326 - Fix bug with rgb(0, 1, 2) color syntax with spaces inside shorthand syntax
327 - HTMLPurifier_HTMLDefinition->addAttribute can now be called multiple times
328 on the same element without emitting errors.
329 - Fixed fatal error in PH5P lexer with invalid tag names
330 . Plugins now get their own changelogs according to project conventions.
331 . Convert tokens to use instanceof, reducing memory footprint and
332 improving comparison speed.
333 . Dry runs now supported in SimpleTest; testing facilities improved
334 . Bootstrap class added for handling autoloading functionality
335 . Implemented recursive glob at FSTools->globr
336 . ConfigSchema now has instance methods for all corresponding define*
338 . A couple of new historical maintenance scripts were added.
339 . HTMLPurifier/HTMLModule/Tidy/XHTMLAndHTML4.php split into two files
340 . tests/index.php can now be run from any directory.
341 . HTMLPurifier_Token subclasses split into seperate files
342 . HTMLPURIFIER_PREFIX now is defined in Bootstrap.php, NOT HTMLPurifier.php
343 . HTMLPURIFIER_PREFIX can now be defined outside of HTML Purifier
344 . New --php=php flag added, allows PHP executable to be specified (command
346 . htmlpurifier_add_test() preferred method to translate test files in to
347 classes, because it handles PHPT files too.
348 . Debugger class is deprecated and will be removed soon.
349 . Command line argument parsing for testing scripts revamped, now --opt value
351 . Smoketests now cleanup after magic quotes
352 . Generator now can output comments (however, comments are still stripped
353 from HTML Purifier output)
354 . HTMLPurifier_ConfigSchema->validate() deprecated in favor of
355 HTMLPurifier_VarParser->parse()
356 . Integers auto-cast into float type by VarParser.
357 . HTMLPURIFIER_STRICT removed; no validation is performed on runtime, only
358 during cache generation
359 . Reordered script calls in maintenance/flush.php
360 . Command line scripts now honor exit codes
361 . When --flush fails in unit testers, abort tests and print message
362 . Improved documentation in docs/dev-flush.html about the maintenance scripts
363 . copy() methods removed in favor of clone keyword
365 3.0.0, released 2008-01-06
366 # HTML Purifier is PHP 5 only! The 2.1.x branch will be maintained
367 until PHP 4 is completely deprecated, but no new features will be added
369 + Visibility declarations added
370 + Constructor methods renamed to __construct()
371 + PHP4 reference cruft removed (in progress)
372 ! CSS properties are now case-insensitive
373 ! DefinitionCacheFactory now can register new implementations
374 ! New HTMLPurifier_Filter_ExtractStyleBlocks for extracting <style> from
375 documents and cleaning their contents up. Requires the CSSTidy library
376 <http://csstidy.sourceforge.net/>. You can access the blocks with the
377 'StyleBlocks' Context variable ($purifier->context->get('StyleBlocks')).
378 The output CSS can also be "scoped" for a specific element, use:
379 %Filter.ExtractStyleBlocksScope
380 ! Experimental support for some proprietary CSS attributes allowed:
381 opacity (and all of the browser-specific equivalents) and scrollbar colors.
382 Enable by setting %CSS.Proprietary to true.
383 - Colors missing # but in hex form will be corrected
384 - CSS Number algorithm improved
385 - Unit testing and multi-testing now on steroids: command lines,
386 XML output, and other goodies now added.
387 . Unit tests for Injector improved
389 + HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_CSS_AlphaValue
390 + HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_CSS_Filter
391 . Multitest now has a file docblock
393 2.1.3, released 2007-11-05
394 ! tests/multitest.php allows you to test multiple versions by running
395 tests/index.php through multiple interpreters using `phpv` shell
396 script (you must provide this script!)
397 - Fixed poor include ordering for Email URI AttrDefs, causes fatal errors
399 - Injector algorithm further refined: off-by-one error regarding skip
400 counts for dormant injectors fixed
401 - Corrective blockquote definition now enabled for HTML 4.01 Strict
402 - Fatal error when <img> tag (or any other element with required attributes)
403 has 'id' attribute fixed, thanks NykO18 for reporting
404 - Fix warning emitted when a non-supported URI scheme is passed to the
405 MakeAbsolute URIFilter, thanks NykO18 (again)
406 - Further refine AutoParagraph injector. Behavior inside of elements
407 allowing paragraph tags clarified: only inline content delimeted by
408 double newlines (not block elements) are paragraphed.
409 - Buggy treatment of end tags of elements that have required attributes
410 fixed (does not manifest on default tag-set)
411 - Spurious internal content reorganization error suppressed
412 - HTMLDefinition->addElement now returns a reference to the created
413 element object, as implied by the documentation
414 - Phorum mod's HTML Purifier help message expanded (unreleased elsewhere)
415 - Fix a theoretical class of infinite loops from DirectLex reported
417 - Work around unnecessary DOMElement type-cast in PH5P that caused errors
419 - Work around PHP 4 SimpleTest lack-of-error complaining for one-time-only
420 HTMLDefinition errors, this may indicate problems with error-collecting
422 - Make ErrorCollectorEMock work in both PHP 4 and PHP 5
423 - Make PH5P work with PHP 5.0 by removing unnecessary array parameter typedef
424 . %Core.AcceptFullDocuments renamed to %Core.ConvertDocumentToFragment
425 to better communicate its purpose
426 . Error unit tests can now specify the expectation of no errors. Future
427 iterations of the harness will be extremely strict about what errors
429 . Extend Injector hooks to allow for more powerful injector routines
430 . HTMLDefinition->addBlankElement created, as according to the HTMLModule
432 . Doxygen configuration file updated, with minor improvements
433 . Test runner now checks for similarly named files in conf/ directory too.
434 . Minor cosmetic change to flush-definition-cache.php: trailing newline is
436 . Maintenance script for generating PH5P patch added, original PH5P source
437 file also added under version control
438 . Full unit test runner script title made more descriptive with PHP version
439 . Updated INSTALL file to state that 4.3.7 is the earliest version we
442 2.1.2, released 2007-09-03
443 ! Implemented Object module for trusted users
444 ! Implemented experimental HTML5 parsing mode using PH5P. To use, add
446 require_once 'HTMLPurifier/Lexer/PH5P.php';
447 $config->set('Core', 'LexerImpl', 'PH5P');
448 Note that this Lexer introduces some classes not in the HTMLPurifier
449 namespace. Also, this is PHP5 only.
450 ! CSS property border-spacing implemented
451 - Fix non-visible parsing error in DirectLex with empty tags that have
452 slashes inside attribute values.
453 - Fix typo in CSS definition: border-collapse:seperate; was incorrectly
454 accepted as valid CSS. Usually non-visible, because this styling is the
455 default for tables in most browsers. Thanks Brett Zamir for pointing
457 - Fix validation errors in configuration form
458 - Hammer out a bunch of edge-case bugs in the standalone distribution
459 - Inclusion reflection removed from URISchemeRegistry; you must manually
460 include any new schema files you wish to use
461 - Numerous typo fixes in documentation thanks to Brett Zamir
462 . Unit test refactoring for one logical test per test function
463 . Config and context parameters in ComplexHarness deprecated: instead, edit
464 the $config and $context member variables
465 . HTML wrapper in DOMLex now takes DTD identifiers into account; doesn't
466 really make a difference, but is good for completeness sake
467 . merge-library.php script refactored for greater code reusability and
470 2.1.1, released 2007-08-04
471 - Fix show-stopper bug in %URI.MakeAbsolute functionality
472 - Fix PHP4 syntax error in standalone version
473 . Add prefix directory to include path for standalone, this prevents
474 other installations from clobbering the standalone's URI schemes
475 . Single test methods can be invoked by prefixing with __only
477 2.1.0, released 2007-08-02
478 # flush-htmldefinition-cache.php superseded in favor of a generic
479 flush-definition-cache.php script, you can clear a specific cache
480 by passing its name as a parameter to the script
481 ! Phorum mod implemented for HTML Purifier
482 ! With %Core.AggressivelyFixLt, <3 and similar emoticons no longer
483 trigger HTML removal in PHP5 (DOMLex). This directive is not necessary
484 for PHP4 (DirectLex).

501 . HTMLPurifier_Config->getSerial() implemented, this is extremely useful
502 for output cache invalidation
503 . ConfigForm printer now can retrieve CSS and JS files as strings, in
504 case HTML Purifier's directory is not publically accessible

514 . Added HTMLPURIFIER_PREFIX constant, should be used instead of dirname(__FILE__)
515 . Custom ChildDef added to default include list
516 . URIScheme reflection improved: will not attempt to include file if class
517 already exists. May clobber autoload, so I need to keep an eye on it
518 . ConfigSchema heavily optimized, will only collect information and validate
519 definitions when HTMLPURIFIER_SCHEMA_STRICT is true.

536 linkify your HTML input by setting %AutoFormat.AutoParagraph and
537 %AutoFormat.Linkify to true
538 ! Newlines normalized internally, and then converted back to the
539 value of PHP_EOL. If this is not desired, set your newline format
540 using %Output.Newline.
541 ! Beta error collection, messages are implemented for the most generic
542 cases involving Lexing or Strategies
543 - Clean up special case code for <script> tags
544 - Reorder includes for DefinitionCache decorators, fixes a possible
546 - Fixed bug where manually modified definitions were not saved via cache

563 . Interlinking in configuration documentation added using
564 Injector_PurifierLinkify
565 . Directives now keep track of aliases to themselves
566 . Error collector now requires a severity to be passed, use PHP's internal
567 error constants for this
568 . HTMLPurifier_Config::getAllowedDirectivesForForm implemented, allows
569 much easier selective embedding of configuration values
570 . Doctype objects now accept public and system DTD identifiers
571 . %HTML.Doctype is now constrained by specific values, to specify a custom
572 doctype use new %HTML.CustomDoctype
573 . ConfigForm truncates long directives to keep the form small, and does
574 not re-output namespaces

577 # Completely refactored HTMLModuleManager, decentralizing safety
579 # Transform modules changed to Tidy modules, which offer more flexibility
580 and better modularization
581 # Configuration object now finalizes itself when a read operation is
582 performed on it, ensuring that its internal state stays consistent.

584 off, but it's not recommended.
585 # New compact syntax for AttrDef objects that can be used to instantiate
586 new objects via make()
587 # Definitions (esp. HTMLDefinition) are now cached for a significant
588 performance boost. You can disable caching by setting %Core.DefinitionCache

590 DefinitionID directive (%HTML.DefinitionID for HTMLDefinition).
591 # Contents between <script> tags are now completely removed if <script>
593 # Prototype-declarations for Lexer removed in favor of configuration
