13 - Emit an error for CollectErrors if a body is extracted
14 - Fix bug where in background-position for center keyword handling.
15 - Fix infinite loop when a wrapper element is inserted in a context
16 where it's not allowed. Thanks Lars <lars@renoz.dk> for reporting.
17 - Remove +x bit and shebang from index.php; only supported mode is to
18 explicitly call it with php.
20 4.1.0, released 2010-04-26
21 ! Support proprietary height attribute on table element
22 ! Support YouTube slideshows that contain /cp/ in their URL.
23 ! Support for data: URI scheme; not enabled by default, add it using
25 ! Support flashvars when using %HTML.SafeObject and %HTML.SafeEmbed.
26 ! Support for Internet Explorer compatibility with %HTML.SafeObject
27 using %Output.FlashCompat.
28 ! Handle <ol><ol> properly, by inserting the necessary <li> tag.
29 - Always quote the insides of url(...) in CSS.
31 4.0.0, released 2009-07-07
32 # APIs for ConfigSchema subsystem have substantially changed. See
33 docs/dev-config-bcbreaks.txt for details; in essence, anything that
34 had both namespace and directive now have a single unified key.
35 # Some configuration directives were renamed, specifically:
36 %AutoFormatParam.PurifierLinkifyDocURL -> %AutoFormat.PurifierLinkify.DocURL
37 %FilterParam.ExtractStyleBlocksEscaping -> %Filter.ExtractStyleBlocks.Escaping
38 %FilterParam.ExtractStyleBlocksScope -> %Filter.ExtractStyleBlocks.Scope
39 %FilterParam.ExtractStyleBlocksTidyImpl -> %Filter.ExtractStyleBlocks.TidyImpl
40 As usual, the old directive names will still work, but will throw E_NOTICE
42 # The allowed values for class have been relaxed to allow all of CDATA for
43 doctypes that are not XHTML 1.1 or XHTML 2.0. For old behavior, set
44 %Attr.ClassUseCDATA to false.
45 # Instead of appending the content model to an old content model, a blank
46 element will replace the old content model. You can use #SUPER to get
47 the old content model.
48 ! More robust support for name="" and id=""
49 ! HTMLPurifier_Config::inherit($config) allows you to inherit one
50 configuration, and have changes to that configuration be propagated
51 to all of its children.
52 ! Implement %HTML.Attr.Name.UseCDATA, which relaxes validation rules on
53 the name attribute when set. Use with care. Thanks Ian Cook for
55 ! Implement %AutoFormat.RemoveEmpty.RemoveNbsp, which removes empty
56 tags that contain non-breaking spaces as well other whitespace. You
57 can also modify which tags should have maintained with
58 %AutoFormat.RemoveEmpty.RemoveNbsp.Exceptions.
59 ! Implement %Attr.AllowedClasses, which allows administrators to restrict
60 classes users can use to a specified finite set of classes, and
61 %Attr.ForbiddenClasses, which is the logical inverse.
62 ! You can now maintain your own configuration schema directories by
63 creating a config-schema.php file or passing an extra argument. Check
64 docs/dev-config-schema.html for more details.
65 ! Added HTMLPurifier_Config->serialize() method, which lets you save away
66 your configuration in a compact serial file, which you can unserialize
67 and use directly without having to go through the overhead of setup.
68 - Fix bug where URIDefinition would not get cleared if it's directives got
70 - Fix fatal error in HTMLPurifier_Encoder on certain platforms (probably NetBSD 5.0)
71 - Fix bug in Linkify autoformatter involving <a><span>http://foo</span></a>
72 - Make %URI.Munge not apply to links that have the same host as your host.
73 - Prevent stray </body> tag from truncating output, if a second </body>
75 . Created script maintenance/rename-config.php for renaming a configuration
76 directive while maintaining its alias. This script does not change source code.
77 . Implement namespace locking for definition construction, to prevent
78 bugs where a directive is used for definition construction but is not
79 used to construct the cache hash.
81 3.3.0, released 2009-02-16
82 ! Implement CSS property 'overflow' when %CSS.AllowTricky is true.
83 ! Implement generic property list classess
84 - Fix bug with testEncodingSupportsASCII() algorithm when iconv() implementation
85 does not do the "right thing" with characters not supported in the output
87 - Spellcheck UTF-8: The Secret To Character Encoding
88 - Fix improper removal of the contents of elements with only whitespace. Thanks
89 Eric Wald for reporting.
90 - Fix broken test suite in versions of PHP without spl_autoload_register()
91 - Fix degenerate case with YouTube filter involving double hyphens.
92 Thanks Pierre Attar for reporting.
93 - Fix YouTube rendering problem on certain versions of Firefox.
94 - Fix CSSDefinition Printer problems with decorators
95 - Add text parameter to unit tests, forces text output
96 . Add verbose mode to command line test runner, use (--verbose)
97 . Turn on unit tests for UnitConverter
98 . Fix missing version number in configuration %Attr.DefaultImageAlt (added 3.2.0)
99 . Fix newline errors that caused spurious failures when CRLF HTML Purifier was
101 . Removed trailing whitespace from all text files, see
102 remote-trailing-whitespace.php maintenance script.
103 . Convert configuration to use property list backend.
105 3.2.0, released 2008-10-31
106 # Using %Core.CollectErrors forces line number/column tracking on, whereas
107 previously you could theoretically turn it off.
108 # HTMLPurifier_Injector->notifyEnd() is formally deprecated. Please
109 use handleEnd() instead.
110 ! %Output.AttrSort for when you need your attributes in alphabetical order to
111 deal with a bug in FCKEditor. Requested by frank farmer.
112 ! Enable HTML comments when %HTML.Trusted is on. Requested by Waldo Jaquith.
113 ! Proper support for name attribute. It is now allowed and equivalent to the id
114 attribute in a and img tags, and is only converted to id when %HTML.TidyLevel
115 is heavy (for all doctypes).
116 ! %AutoFormat.RemoveEmpty to remove some empty tags from documents. Please don't
117 use on hand-written HTML.
118 ! Add error-cases for unsupported elements in MakeWellFormed. This enables
119 the strategy to be used, standalone, on untrusted input.
120 ! %Core.AggressivelyFixLt is on by default. This causes more sensible
121 processing of left angled brackets in smileys and other whatnot.
122 ! Test scripts now have a 'type' parameter, which lets you say 'htmlpurifier',
123 'phpt', 'vtest', etc. in order to only execute those tests. This supercedes
124 the --only-phpt parameter, although for backwards-compatibility the flag
126 ! AutoParagraph auto-formatter will now preserve double-newlines upon output.
127 Users who are not performing inbound filtering, this may seem a little
128 useless, but as a bonus, the test suite and handling of edge cases is also
130 ! Experimental implementation of forms for %HTML.Trusted
131 ! Track column numbers when maintain line numbers is on
132 ! Proprietary 'background' attribute on table-related elements converted into
133 corresponding CSS. Thanks Fusemail for sponsoring this feature!
134 ! Add forward(), forwardUntilEndToken(), backward() and current() to Injector
136 ! HTMLPurifier_Injector->handleEnd() permits modification to end tokens. The
137 time of operation varies slightly from notifyEnd() as *all* end tokens are
138 processed by the injector before they are subject to the well-formedness rules.
139 ! %Attr.DefaultImageAlt allows overriding default behavior of setting alt to
140 basename of image when not present.
141 ! %AutoFormat.DisplayLinkURI neuters <a> tags into plain text URLs.
142 - Fix two bugs in %URI.MakeAbsolute; one involving empty paths in base URLs,
143 the other involving an undefined $is_folder error.
144 - Throw error when %Core.Encoding is set to a spurious value. Previously,
145 this errored silently and returned false.
146 - Redirected stderr to stdout for flush error output.
147 - %URI.DisableExternal will now use the host in %URI.Base if %URI.Host is not
149 - Do not re-munge URL if the output URL has the same host as the input URL.
151 - Fix error in documentation regarding %Filter.ExtractStyleBlocks
152 - Prevent <![CDATA[<body></body>]]> from triggering %Core.ConvertDocumentToFragment
153 - Fix bug with inline elements in blockquotes conflicting with strict doctype
154 - Detect if HTML support is disabled for DOM by checking for loadHTML() method.
155 - Fix bug where dots and double-dots in absolute URLs without hostname were
156 not collapsed by URIFilter_MakeAbsolute.
157 - Fix bug with anonymous modules operating on SafeEmbed or SafeObject elements
158 by reordering their addition.
159 - Will now throw exception on many error conditions during lexer creation; also
160 throw an exception when MaintainLineNumbers is true, but a non-tracksLineNumbers
162 - Detect if domxml extension is loaded, and use DirectLEx accordingly.
163 - Improve handling of big numbers with floating point arithmetic in UnitConverter.
164 Reported by David Morton.
165 . Strategy_MakeWellFormed now operates in-place, saving memory and allowing
166 for more interesting filter-backtracking
167 . New HTMLPurifier_Injector->rewind() functionality, allows injectors to rewind
168 index to reprocess tokens.
169 . StringHashParser now allows for multiline sections with "empty" content;
170 previously the section would remain undefined.
171 . Added --quick option to multitest.php, which tests only the most recent
172 release for each series.
173 . Added --distro option to multitest.php, which accepts either 'normal' or
174 'standalone'. This supercedes --exclude-normal and --exclude-standalone
176 3.1.1, released 2008-06-19
177 # %URI.Munge now, by default, does not munge resources (for example, <img src="">)
178 In order to enable this again, please set %URI.MungeResources to true.
179 ! More robust imagecrash protection with height/width CSS with %CSS.MaxImgLength,
180 and height/width HTML with %HTML.MaxImgLength.
181 ! %URI.MungeSecretKey for secure URI munging. Thanks Chris
182 for sponsoring this feature. Check out the corresponding documentation
183 for details. (Att Nightly testers: The API for this feature changed before
184 the general release. Namely, rename your directives %URI.SecureMungeSecretKey =>
185 %URI.MungeSecretKey and and %URI.SecureMunge => %URI.Munge)
186 ! Implemented post URI filtering. Set member variable $post to true to set
188 ! Allow modules to define injectors via $info_injector. Injectors are
189 automatically disabled if injector's needed elements are not found.
190 ! Support for "safe" objects added, use %HTML.SafeObject and %HTML.SafeEmbed.
191 Thanks Chris for sponsoring. If you've been using ad hoc code from the
192 forums, PLEASE use this instead.
193 ! Added substitutions for %e, %n, %a and %p in %URI.Munge (in order,
194 embedded, tag name, attribute name, CSS property name). See %URI.Munge
195 for more details. Requested by Jochem Blok.
196 - Disable percent height/width attributes for img.
197 - AttrValidator operations are now atomic; updates to attributes are not
198 manifest in token until end of operations. This prevents naughty internal
199 code from directly modifying CurrentToken when they're not supposed to.
200 This semantics change was requested by frank farmer.
201 - Percent encoding checks enabled for URI query and fragment
202 - Fix stray backslashes in font-family; CSS Unicode character escapes are
203 now properly resolved (although *only* in font-family). Thanks Takeshi Terada
205 - Improve parseCDATA algorithm to take into account newline normalization
206 - Account for browser confusion between Yen character and backslash in
207 Shift_JIS encoding. This fix generalizes to any other encoding which is not
208 a strict superset of printable ASCII. Thanks Takeshi Terada for reporting.
209 - Fix missing configuration parameter in Generator calls. Thanks vs for the
211 - Improved adherence to Unicode by checking for non-character codepoints.
212 Thanks Geoffrey Sneddon for reporting. This may result in degraded
213 performance for extremely large inputs.
214 - Allow CSS property-value pair ''text-decoration: none''. Thanks Jochem Blok
216 . Added HTMLPurifier_UnitConverter and HTMLPurifier_Length for convenient
217 handling of CSS-style lengths. HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_CSS_Length now uses
219 . API of HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_CSS_Length changed from __construct($disable_negative)
220 to __construct($min, $max). __construct(true) is equivalent to
222 . Added HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_Switch class
223 . Rename HTMLPurifier_HTMLModule_Tidy->construct() to setup() and bubble method
224 up inheritance hierarchy to HTMLPurifier_HTMLModule. All HTMLModules
225 get this called with the configuration object. All modules now
226 use this rather than __construct(), although legacy code using constructors
227 will still work--the new format, however, lets modules access the
228 configuration object for HTML namespace dependant tweaks.
229 . AttrDef_HTML_Pixels now takes a single construction parameter, pixels.
230 . ConfigSchema data-structure heavily optimized; on average it uses a third
231 the memory it did previously. The interface has changed accordingly,
232 consult changes to HTMLPurifier_Config for details.
233 . Variable parsing types now are magic integers instead of strings
234 . Added benchmark for ConfigSchema
235 . HTMLPurifier_Generator requires $config and $context parameters. If you
236 don't know what they should be, use HTMLPurifier_Config::createDefault()
237 and new HTMLPurifier_Context().
238 . Printers now properly distinguish between output configuration, and
239 target configuration. This is not applicable to scripts using
240 the Printers for HTML Purifier related tasks.
241 . HTML/CSS Printers must be primed with prepareGenerator($gen_config), otherwise
242 fatal errors will ensue.
243 . URIFilter->prepare can return false in order to abort loading of the filter
244 . Factory for AttrDef_URI implemented, URI#embedded to indicate URI that embeds
245 an external resource.
246 . %URI.Munge functionality factored out into a post-filter class.
247 . Added CurrentCSSProperty context variable during CSS validation
249 3.1.0, released 2008-05-18
250 # Unnecessary references to objects (vestiges of PHP4) removed from method
251 signatures. The following methods do not need references when assigning from
252 them and will result in E_STRICT errors if you try:
253 + HTMLPurifier_Config->get*Definition() [* = HTML, CSS]
254 + HTMLPurifier_ConfigSchema::instance()
255 + HTMLPurifier_DefinitionCacheFactory::instance()
256 + HTMLPurifier_DefinitionCacheFactory->create()
257 + HTMLPurifier_DoctypeRegistry->register()
258 + HTMLPurifier_DoctypeRegistry->get()
259 + HTMLPurifier_HTMLModule->addElement()
260 + HTMLPurifier_HTMLModule->addBlankElement()
261 + HTMLPurifier_LanguageFactory::instance()
262 # Printer_ConfigForm's get*() functions were static-ified
263 # %HTML.ForbiddenAttributes requires attribute declarations to be in the
264 form of tag@attr, NOT tag.attr (which will throw an error and won't do
265 anything). This is for forwards compatibility with XML; you'd do best
266 to migrate an %HTML.AllowedAttributes directives to this syntax too.
267 ! Allow index to be false for config from form creation
268 ! Added HTMLPurifier::VERSION constant
269 ! Commas, not dashes, used for serializer IDs. This change is forwards-compatible
270 and allows for version numbers like "3.1.0-dev".
271 ! %HTML.Allowed deals gracefully with whitespace anywhere, anytime!
272 ! HTML Purifier's URI handling is a lot more robust, with much stricter
273 validation checks and better percent encoding handling. Thanks Gareth Heyes
274 for indicating security vulnerabilities from lax percent encoding.
275 ! Bootstrap autoloader deals more robustly with classes that don't exist,
276 preventing class_exists($class, true) from barfing.
277 - InterchangeBuilder now alphabetizes its lists
278 - Validation error in configdoc output fixed
279 - Iconv and other encoding errors muted even with custom error handlers that
280 do not honor error_reporting
281 - Add protection against imagecrash attack with CSS height/width
282 - HTMLPurifier::instance() created for consistency, is equivalent to getInstance()
283 - Fixed and revamped broken ConfigForm smoketest
284 - Bug with bool/null fields in Printer_ConfigForm fixed
285 - Bug with global forbidden attributes fixed
286 - Improved error messages for allowed and forbidden HTML elements and attributes
287 - Missing (or null) in configdoc documentation restored
288 - If DOM throws and exception during parsing with PH5P (occurs in newer versions
289 of DOM), HTML Purifier punts to DirectLex
290 - Fatal error with unserialization of ScriptRequired
291 - Created directories are now chmod'ed properly
292 - Fixed bug with fallback languages in LanguageFactory
293 - Standalone testing setup properly with autoload
294 . Out-of-date documentation revised
295 . UTF-8 encoding check optimization as suggested by Diego
296 . HTMLPurifier_Error removed in favor of exceptions
297 . More copy() function removed; should use clone instead
298 . More extensive unit tests for HTMLDefinition
299 . assertPurification moved to central harness
300 . HTMLPurifier_Generator accepts $config and $context parameters during
301 instantiation, not runtime
302 . Double-quotes outside of attribute values are now unescaped
304 3.1.0rc1, released 2008-04-22
305 # Autoload support added. Internal require_once's removed in favor of an
306 explicit require list or autoloading. To use HTML Purifier,
307 you must now either use HTMLPurifier.auto.php
308 or HTMLPurifier.includes.php; setting the include path and including
309 HTMLPurifier.php is insufficient--in such cases include HTMLPurifier.autoload.php
310 as well to register our autoload handler (or modify your autoload function
311 to check HTMLPurifier_Bootstrap::getPath($class)). You can also use
312 HTMLPurifier.safe-includes.php for a less performance friendly but more
313 user-friendly library load.
314 # HTMLPurifier_ConfigSchema static functions are officially deprecated. Schema
315 information is stored in the ConfigSchema directory, and the
316 maintenance/generate-schema-cache.php generates the schema.ser file, which
317 is now instantiated. Support for userland schema changes coming soon!
318 # HTMLPurifier_Config will now throw E_USER_NOTICE when you use a directive
319 alias; to get rid of these errors just modify your configuration to use
320 the new directive name.
321 # HTMLPurifier->addFilter is deprecated; built-in filters can now be
322 enabled using %Filter.$filter_name or by setting your own filters using
324 # Directive-level safety properties superceded in favor of module-level
325 safety. Internal method HTMLModule->addElement() has changed, although
326 the externally visible HTMLDefinition->addElement has *not* changed.
327 ! Extra utility classes for testing and non-library operations can
328 be found in extras/. Specifically, these are FSTools and ConfigDoc.
329 You may find a use for these in your own project, but right now they
330 are highly experimental and volatile.
331 ! Integration with PHPT allows for automated smoketests
332 ! Limited support for proprietary HTML elements, namely <marquee>, sponsored
333 by Chris. You can enable them with %HTML.Proprietary if your client
335 ! Support for !important CSS cascade modifier. By default, this will be stripped
336 from CSS, but you can enable it using %CSS.AllowImportant
337 ! Support for display and visibility CSS properties added, set %CSS.AllowTricky
339 ! HTML Purifier now has its own Exception hierarchy under HTMLPurifier_Exception.
340 Developer error (not enduser error) can cause these to be triggered.
341 ! Experimental kses() wrapper introduced with HTMLPurifier.kses.php
342 ! Finally %CSS.AllowedProperties for tweaking allowed CSS properties without
343 mucking around with HTMLPurifier_CSSDefinition
344 ! ConfigDoc output has been enhanced with version and deprecation info.
345 ! %HTML.ForbiddenAttributes and %HTML.ForbiddenElements implemented.
346 - Autoclose now operates iteratively, i.e. <span><span><div> now has
347 both span tags closed.
348 - Various HTMLPurifier_Config convenience functions now accept another parameter
349 $schema which defines what HTMLPurifier_ConfigSchema to use besides the
351 - Fix bug with trusted script handling in libxml versions later than 2.6.28.
352 - Fix bug in ExtractStyleBlocks with comments in style tags
353 - Fix bug in comment parsing for DirectLex
354 - Flush output now displayed when in command line mode for unit tester
355 - Fix bug with rgb(0, 1, 2) color syntax with spaces inside shorthand syntax
356 - HTMLPurifier_HTMLDefinition->addAttribute can now be called multiple times
357 on the same element without emitting errors.
358 - Fixed fatal error in PH5P lexer with invalid tag names
359 . Plugins now get their own changelogs according to project conventions.
360 . Convert tokens to use instanceof, reducing memory footprint and
361 improving comparison speed.
362 . Dry runs now supported in SimpleTest; testing facilities improved
363 . Bootstrap class added for handling autoloading functionality
364 . Implemented recursive glob at FSTools->globr
365 . ConfigSchema now has instance methods for all corresponding define*
367 . A couple of new historical maintenance scripts were added.
368 . HTMLPurifier/HTMLModule/Tidy/XHTMLAndHTML4.php split into two files
369 . tests/index.php can now be run from any directory.
370 . HTMLPurifier_Token subclasses split into seperate files
371 . HTMLPURIFIER_PREFIX now is defined in Bootstrap.php, NOT HTMLPurifier.php
372 . HTMLPURIFIER_PREFIX can now be defined outside of HTML Purifier
373 . New --php=php flag added, allows PHP executable to be specified (command
375 . htmlpurifier_add_test() preferred method to translate test files in to
376 classes, because it handles PHPT files too.
377 . Debugger class is deprecated and will be removed soon.
378 . Command line argument parsing for testing scripts revamped, now --opt value
380 . Smoketests now cleanup after magic quotes
381 . Generator now can output comments (however, comments are still stripped
382 from HTML Purifier output)
383 . HTMLPurifier_ConfigSchema->validate() deprecated in favor of
384 HTMLPurifier_VarParser->parse()
385 . Integers auto-cast into float type by VarParser.
386 . HTMLPURIFIER_STRICT removed; no validation is performed on runtime, only
387 during cache generation
388 . Reordered script calls in maintenance/flush.php
389 . Command line scripts now honor exit codes
390 . When --flush fails in unit testers, abort tests and print message
391 . Improved documentation in docs/dev-flush.html about the maintenance scripts
392 . copy() methods removed in favor of clone keyword
394 3.0.0, released 2008-01-06
395 # HTML Purifier is PHP 5 only! The 2.1.x branch will be maintained
396 until PHP 4 is completely deprecated, but no new features will be added
398 + Visibility declarations added
399 + Constructor methods renamed to __construct()
400 + PHP4 reference cruft removed (in progress)
401 ! CSS properties are now case-insensitive
402 ! DefinitionCacheFactory now can register new implementations
403 ! New HTMLPurifier_Filter_ExtractStyleBlocks for extracting <style> from
404 documents and cleaning their contents up. Requires the CSSTidy library
405 <http://csstidy.sourceforge.net/>. You can access the blocks with the
406 'StyleBlocks' Context variable ($purifier->context->get('StyleBlocks')).
407 The output CSS can also be "scoped" for a specific element, use:
408 %Filter.ExtractStyleBlocksScope
409 ! Experimental support for some proprietary CSS attributes allowed:
410 opacity (and all of the browser-specific equivalents) and scrollbar colors.
411 Enable by setting %CSS.Proprietary to true.
412 - Colors missing # but in hex form will be corrected
413 - CSS Number algorithm improved
414 - Unit testing and multi-testing now on steroids: command lines,
415 XML output, and other goodies now added.
416 . Unit tests for Injector improved
418 + HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_CSS_AlphaValue
419 + HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_CSS_Filter
420 . Multitest now has a file docblock
422 2.1.3, released 2007-11-05
423 ! tests/multitest.php allows you to test multiple versions by running
424 tests/index.php through multiple interpreters using `phpv` shell
425 script (you must provide this script!)
426 - Fixed poor include ordering for Email URI AttrDefs, causes fatal errors
428 - Injector algorithm further refined: off-by-one error regarding skip
429 counts for dormant injectors fixed
430 - Corrective blockquote definition now enabled for HTML 4.01 Strict
431 - Fatal error when <img> tag (or any other element with required attributes)
432 has 'id' attribute fixed, thanks NykO18 for reporting
433 - Fix warning emitted when a non-supported URI scheme is passed to the
434 MakeAbsolute URIFilter, thanks NykO18 (again)
435 - Further refine AutoParagraph injector. Behavior inside of elements
436 allowing paragraph tags clarified: only inline content delimeted by
437 double newlines (not block elements) are paragraphed.
438 - Buggy treatment of end tags of elements that have required attributes
439 fixed (does not manifest on default tag-set)
440 - Spurious internal content reorganization error suppressed
441 - HTMLDefinition->addElement now returns a reference to the created
442 element object, as implied by the documentation
443 - Phorum mod's HTML Purifier help message expanded (unreleased elsewhere)
444 - Fix a theoretical class of infinite loops from DirectLex reported
446 - Work around unnecessary DOMElement type-cast in PH5P that caused errors
448 - Work around PHP 4 SimpleTest lack-of-error complaining for one-time-only
449 HTMLDefinition errors, this may indicate problems with error-collecting
451 - Make ErrorCollectorEMock work in both PHP 4 and PHP 5
452 - Make PH5P work with PHP 5.0 by removing unnecessary array parameter typedef
453 . %Core.AcceptFullDocuments renamed to %Core.ConvertDocumentToFragment
454 to better communicate its purpose
455 . Error unit tests can now specify the expectation of no errors. Future
456 iterations of the harness will be extremely strict about what errors
458 . Extend Injector hooks to allow for more powerful injector routines
459 . HTMLDefinition->addBlankElement created, as according to the HTMLModule
461 . Doxygen configuration file updated, with minor improvements
462 . Test runner now checks for similarly named files in conf/ directory too.
463 . Minor cosmetic change to flush-definition-cache.php: trailing newline is
465 . Maintenance script for generating PH5P patch added, original PH5P source
466 file also added under version control
467 . Full unit test runner script title made more descriptive with PHP version
468 . Updated INSTALL file to state that 4.3.7 is the earliest version we
471 2.1.2, released 2007-09-03
472 ! Implemented Object module for trusted users
473 ! Implemented experimental HTML5 parsing mode using PH5P. To use, add
475 require_once 'HTMLPurifier/Lexer/PH5P.php';
476 $config->set('Core', 'LexerImpl', 'PH5P');
477 Note that this Lexer introduces some classes not in the HTMLPurifier
478 namespace. Also, this is PHP5 only.
479 ! CSS property border-spacing implemented
480 - Fix non-visible parsing error in DirectLex with empty tags that have
481 slashes inside attribute values.
482 - Fix typo in CSS definition: border-collapse:seperate; was incorrectly
483 accepted as valid CSS. Usually non-visible, because this styling is the
484 default for tables in most browsers. Thanks Brett Zamir for pointing
486 - Fix validation errors in configuration form
487 - Hammer out a bunch of edge-case bugs in the standalone distribution
488 - Inclusion reflection removed from URISchemeRegistry; you must manually
489 include any new schema files you wish to use

538 . ConfigForm generates textareas instead of text inputs for lists, hashes,
539 lookups, text and itext fields

544 . Custom ChildDef added to default include list
545 . URIScheme reflection improved: will not attempt to include file if class

565 linkify your HTML input by setting %AutoFormat.AutoParagraph and
566 %AutoFormat.Linkify to true
567 ! Newlines normalized internally, and then converted back to the
568 value of PHP_EOL. If this is not desired, set your newline format
569 using %Output.Newline.
570 ! Beta error collection, messages are implemented for the most generic
571 cases involving Lexing or Strategies

592 . Interlinking in configuration documentation added using
593 Injector_PurifierLinkify
594 . Directives now keep track of aliases to themselves

608 # Transform modules changed to Tidy modules, which offer more flexibility
609 and better modularization

615 new objects via make()
616 # Definitions (esp. HTMLDefinition) are now cached for a significant
