Previously, if the user tried to submit content which was
malformed utf-8, Instiki would complain loudly to him.
A slightly more user-friendly approach was suggested by
the latest Rails 2.3.4, and a conversation with Sam Ruby
(who suggested some improvements).
Now, instead of complaining, we remove the offending bytes,
leaving a well-formed utf-8 string, which we pretend is what
the user meant to submit.
This release upgrades Instiki to Rails 2.3.4, which
patches two security holes in Rails. See
http://weblog.rubyonrails.org/2009/9/4/ruby-on-rails-2-3-4
There are also some new features, and the usual boatload
of bugfixes. See the CHANGELOG for details.
Should be to the published action. This
didn't work right for inter-web links.
(Reported by Mike Shulman)
Also, change some .length's to .size's
(for Andrew Stacey)
Web#files_path and Web#blatex_pngs_path now return Pathname objects.
Based on JHerdman's
5d1e8f420b
but requires several other changes to the code (which assumed a string).
Also, test for itex2MML 1.3.10 (you should update that too).
1. Ensure that "rollback" respects locked pages.
2. Expire revisions of an edited page. Use a before_save
hook to deal with the situation where a page's name
has been changed.
1) WEBrick should respond to TERM signals
(needed by MacOSX and, perhaps, others).
2) HTTP redirects for redirected pages should be 301's.
3) Add a flash message for redirection to "new" page
when the target of "show" action is not found.
Added the ability to rename existing pages.
[[!redirects Some Page Name]] redirects Wikilinks [[Some Page Name]] to
the current page (assuming "Some Page Name" does not exist).
Real pages trump redirects (though this may change, depending on
user feedback).
From Jason Blevins:
Create a "History" page for each wiki page.
Link to it, and to the "Diff" page from "Recently Revised".
Also, correct a bug in listing/deleting links to uploaded
video and audio files.
Add support, in the LaTeX export, for blackboard bold
digits and lowercase latin letters. If these are
present, LaTeX will
\usepackage{mathbbol}
N.B.: this uses the stmaryrd font for blackboard bold
letters, instead of the msbm font.
Tests included. (Yes, you need to update itex2MML as well.)
Using <object> and <embed> were forbidden for obvious
security reasons. Instiki now permits embedding video
via the HTML5 <video> element (Ogg/Theora encoded videos
only, with .ogg or .ogv extensions). You can even upload
videos with
[[foo.ogg:video]]
Instiki now support x-sendfile. See the Proxying page for
configuring Apache (with the x-sendfile module). Lighttpd
should work similarly.
Update Rails to latest Edge (hopefully converging on RC2!).
Dunno why this was buggered again. ":back" doesn't seem to function as it used to.
Also, when uploading a file from page "foo", it's important to return to "foo" after
a successful upload, rather than redirecting to the HomePage.
Finally, a favicon tweak.
