1.10 Update - Editor Fixes

This version fixes several annoying bugs in the editor. My apologies for not seeing them - I haven't been posting enough to notice.

- switching to another non-haloscan tabbed browser caused the editor to freeze.
- Paste from other sources lost newlines.
- Entering a url that had a space at the beginning caused unexpected results (we now trim it).
- Urls that had embedded ampersands were converted to & entities, which haloscan choked on.

1.09 Update

Leaving CRC's Post Comment window open when closing a CR comments tab put CRC into a CPU spiking state. This version provides a fix.

Big Kudos to Jay Sundahl for tracking down a reproducible scenario of this problem!

1.07 Update

This revision is a bug fix release in preparation for the move to JS-Kit's new format.

The following bugs have been fixed:
  • Spell checking was not on by default when composing a comment.
  • When pasting from another source, script tags were included.
  • The last four characters were intermittently omitted when posting (this one is a hopeful, as I've never been able to reproduce the problem).
  • The author rating filter's current setting was not saved across browser sessions.
Note: if you don't see 1.07 right away, try again later. Mozilla takes awhile to update their pages.

Happy Holidays!

I'll be away from my development tools for a couple of weeks, so won't be able to fix any bugs for that time, but please, if you run into any, let me know!

May your solstice be bright, and hopefully a pleasant hiatus from gloom and doom.

1.06 Update

This revision is almost entirely bug fixes:
  • Added "Don't Show Anymore" checkbox to Comment Successfully Posted dialog
  • Fixed Mac problem where settings didn't have a close button
  • Fixed problem where the editor went out of design mode when switching between tabs
  • Fixed problem where embedded semicolons in URLs were eaten by haloscan
It does add one small feature: the status area showing the number of comments now also shows the number of the topmost visible comment, to measure your progress.

1.05 Update

CR just changed the blog's URL, which broke page title updating. This rev fixes that.

It also:
  • improves scrolling speed
  • fixes copy paste problems with wierd characters
  • fixes a problem of the sidebar switching when multiple threads were being updated simultaneously
