1 NEWS ( CHANGELOG and HISTORY ) HTMLPurifier
2 |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4 = KEY ====================
10 ==========================
12 3.3.0, released 2009-02-16
13 ! Implement CSS property 'overflow' when %CSS.AllowTricky is true.
14 ! Implement generic property list classess
15 - Fix bug with testEncodingSupportsASCII() algorithm when iconv() implementation
16 does not do the "right thing" with characters not supported in the output
18 - Spellcheck UTF-8: The Secret To Character Encoding
19 - Fix improper removal of the contents of elements with only whitespace. Thanks
20 Eric Wald for reporting.
21 - Fix broken test suite in versions of PHP without spl_autoload_register()
22 - Fix degenerate case with YouTube filter involving double hyphens.
23 Thanks Pierre Attar for reporting.
24 - Fix YouTube rendering problem on certain versions of Firefox.
25 - Fix CSSDefinition Printer problems with decorators
26 - Add text parameter to unit tests, forces text output
27 . Add verbose mode to command line test runner, use (--verbose)
28 . Turn on unit tests for UnitConverter
29 . Fix missing version number in configuration %Attr.DefaultImageAlt (added 3.2.0)
30 . Fix newline errors that caused spurious failures when CRLF HTML Purifier was
32 . Removed trailing whitespace from all text files, see
33 remote-trailing-whitespace.php maintenance script.
34 . Convert configuration to use property list backend.
36 3.2.0, released 2008-10-31
37 # Using %Core.CollectErrors forces line number/column tracking on, whereas
38 previously you could theoretically turn it off.
39 # HTMLPurifier_Injector->notifyEnd() is formally deprecated. Please
40 use handleEnd() instead.
41 ! %Output.AttrSort for when you need your attributes in alphabetical order to
42 deal with a bug in FCKEditor. Requested by frank farmer.
43 ! Enable HTML comments when %HTML.Trusted is on. Requested by Waldo Jaquith.
44 ! Proper support for name attribute. It is now allowed and equivalent to the id
45 attribute in a and img tags, and is only converted to id when %HTML.TidyLevel
46 is heavy (for all doctypes).
47 ! %AutoFormat.RemoveEmpty to remove some empty tags from documents. Please don't
48 use on hand-written HTML.
49 ! Add error-cases for unsupported elements in MakeWellFormed. This enables
50 the strategy to be used, standalone, on untrusted input.
51 ! %Core.AggressivelyFixLt is on by default. This causes more sensible
52 processing of left angled brackets in smileys and other whatnot.
53 ! Test scripts now have a 'type' parameter, which lets you say 'htmlpurifier',
54 'phpt', 'vtest', etc. in order to only execute those tests. This supercedes
55 the --only-phpt parameter, although for backwards-compatibility the flag
57 ! AutoParagraph auto-formatter will now preserve double-newlines upon output.
58 Users who are not performing inbound filtering, this may seem a little
59 useless, but as a bonus, the test suite and handling of edge cases is also
61 ! Experimental implementation of forms for %HTML.Trusted
62 ! Track column numbers when maintain line numbers is on
63 ! Proprietary 'background' attribute on table-related elements converted into
64 corresponding CSS. Thanks Fusemail for sponsoring this feature!
65 ! Add forward(), forwardUntilEndToken(), backward() and current() to Injector
67 ! HTMLPurifier_Injector->handleEnd() permits modification to end tokens. The
68 time of operation varies slightly from notifyEnd() as *all* end tokens are
69 processed by the injector before they are subject to the well-formedness rules.
70 ! %Attr.DefaultImageAlt allows overriding default behavior of setting alt to
71 basename of image when not present.
72 ! %AutoFormat.DisplayLinkURI neuters <a> tags into plain text URLs.
73 - Fix two bugs in %URI.MakeAbsolute; one involving empty paths in base URLs,
74 the other involving an undefined $is_folder error.
75 - Throw error when %Core.Encoding is set to a spurious value. Previously,
76 this errored silently and returned false.
77 - Redirected stderr to stdout for flush error output.
78 - %URI.DisableExternal will now use the host in %URI.Base if %URI.Host is not
80 - Do not re-munge URL if the output URL has the same host as the input URL.
82 - Fix error in documentation regarding %Filter.ExtractStyleBlocks
83 - Prevent <![CDATA[<body></body>]]> from triggering %Core.ConvertDocumentToFragment
84 - Fix bug with inline elements in blockquotes conflicting with strict doctype
85 - Detect if HTML support is disabled for DOM by checking for loadHTML() method.
86 - Fix bug where dots and double-dots in absolute URLs without hostname were
87 not collapsed by URIFilter_MakeAbsolute.
88 - Fix bug with anonymous modules operating on SafeEmbed or SafeObject elements
89 by reordering their addition.
90 - Will now throw exception on many error conditions during lexer creation; also
91 throw an exception when MaintainLineNumbers is true, but a non-tracksLineNumbers
93 - Detect if domxml extension is loaded, and use DirectLEx accordingly.
94 - Improve handling of big numbers with floating point arithmetic in UnitConverter.
95 Reported by David Morton.
96 . Strategy_MakeWellFormed now operates in-place, saving memory and allowing
97 for more interesting filter-backtracking
98 . New HTMLPurifier_Injector->rewind() functionality, allows injectors to rewind
99 index to reprocess tokens.
100 . StringHashParser now allows for multiline sections with "empty" content;
101 previously the section would remain undefined.
102 . Added --quick option to multitest.php, which tests only the most recent
103 release for each series.
104 . Added --distro option to multitest.php, which accepts either 'normal' or
105 'standalone'. This supercedes --exclude-normal and --exclude-standalone
107 3.1.1, released 2008-06-19
108 # %URI.Munge now, by default, does not munge resources (for example, <img src="">)
109 In order to enable this again, please set %URI.MungeResources to true.
110 ! More robust imagecrash protection with height/width CSS with %CSS.MaxImgLength,
111 and height/width HTML with %HTML.MaxImgLength.
112 ! %URI.MungeSecretKey for secure URI munging. Thanks Chris
113 for sponsoring this feature. Check out the corresponding documentation
114 for details. (Att Nightly testers: The API for this feature changed before
115 the general release. Namely, rename your directives %URI.SecureMungeSecretKey =>
116 %URI.MungeSecretKey and and %URI.SecureMunge => %URI.Munge)
117 ! Implemented post URI filtering. Set member variable $post to true to set
119 ! Allow modules to define injectors via $info_injector. Injectors are
120 automatically disabled if injector's needed elements are not found.
121 ! Support for "safe" objects added, use %HTML.SafeObject and %HTML.SafeEmbed.
122 Thanks Chris for sponsoring. If you've been using ad hoc code from the
123 forums, PLEASE use this instead.
124 ! Added substitutions for %e, %n, %a and %p in %URI.Munge (in order,
125 embedded, tag name, attribute name, CSS property name). See %URI.Munge
126 for more details. Requested by Jochem Blok.
127 - Disable percent height/width attributes for img.
128 - AttrValidator operations are now atomic; updates to attributes are not
129 manifest in token until end of operations. This prevents naughty internal
130 code from directly modifying CurrentToken when they're not supposed to.
131 This semantics change was requested by frank farmer.
132 - Percent encoding checks enabled for URI query and fragment
133 - Fix stray backslashes in font-family; CSS Unicode character escapes are
134 now properly resolved (although *only* in font-family). Thanks Takeshi Terada
136 - Improve parseCDATA algorithm to take into account newline normalization
137 - Account for browser confusion between Yen character and backslash in
138 Shift_JIS encoding. This fix generalizes to any other encoding which is not
139 a strict superset of printable ASCII. Thanks Takeshi Terada for reporting.
140 - Fix missing configuration parameter in Generator calls. Thanks vs for the
142 - Improved adherence to Unicode by checking for non-character codepoints.
143 Thanks Geoffrey Sneddon for reporting. This may result in degraded
144 performance for extremely large inputs.
145 - Allow CSS property-value pair ''text-decoration: none''. Thanks Jochem Blok
147 . Added HTMLPurifier_UnitConverter and HTMLPurifier_Length for convenient
148 handling of CSS-style lengths. HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_CSS_Length now uses
150 . API of HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_CSS_Length changed from __construct($disable_negative)
151 to __construct($min, $max). __construct(true) is equivalent to
153 . Added HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_Switch class
154 . Rename HTMLPurifier_HTMLModule_Tidy->construct() to setup() and bubble method
155 up inheritance hierarchy to HTMLPurifier_HTMLModule. All HTMLModules
156 get this called with the configuration object. All modules now
157 use this rather than __construct(), although legacy code using constructors
158 will still work--the new format, however, lets modules access the
159 configuration object for HTML namespace dependant tweaks.
160 . AttrDef_HTML_Pixels now takes a single construction parameter, pixels.
161 . ConfigSchema data-structure heavily optimized; on average it uses a third
162 the memory it did previously. The interface has changed accordingly,
163 consult changes to HTMLPurifier_Config for details.
164 . Variable parsing types now are magic integers instead of strings
165 . Added benchmark for ConfigSchema
166 . HTMLPurifier_Generator requires $config and $context parameters. If you
167 don't know what they should be, use HTMLPurifier_Config::createDefault()
168 and new HTMLPurifier_Context().
169 . Printers now properly distinguish between output configuration, and
170 target configuration. This is not applicable to scripts using
171 the Printers for HTML Purifier related tasks.
172 . HTML/CSS Printers must be primed with prepareGenerator($gen_config), otherwise
173 fatal errors will ensue.
174 . URIFilter->prepare can return false in order to abort loading of the filter
175 . Factory for AttrDef_URI implemented, URI#embedded to indicate URI that embeds
176 an external resource.
177 . %URI.Munge functionality factored out into a post-filter class.
178 . Added CurrentCSSProperty context variable during CSS validation
180 3.1.0, released 2008-05-18
181 # Unnecessary references to objects (vestiges of PHP4) removed from method
182 signatures. The following methods do not need references when assigning from
183 them and will result in E_STRICT errors if you try:
184 + HTMLPurifier_Config->get*Definition() [* = HTML, CSS]
185 + HTMLPurifier_ConfigSchema::instance()
186 + HTMLPurifier_DefinitionCacheFactory::instance()
187 + HTMLPurifier_DefinitionCacheFactory->create()
188 + HTMLPurifier_DoctypeRegistry->register()
189 + HTMLPurifier_DoctypeRegistry->get()
190 + HTMLPurifier_HTMLModule->addElement()
191 + HTMLPurifier_HTMLModule->addBlankElement()
192 + HTMLPurifier_LanguageFactory::instance()
193 # Printer_ConfigForm's get*() functions were static-ified
194 # %HTML.ForbiddenAttributes requires attribute declarations to be in the
195 form of tag@attr, NOT tag.attr (which will throw an error and won't do
196 anything). This is for forwards compatibility with XML; you'd do best
197 to migrate an %HTML.AllowedAttributes directives to this syntax too.
198 ! Allow index to be false for config from form creation
199 ! Added HTMLPurifier::VERSION constant
200 ! Commas, not dashes, used for serializer IDs. This change is forwards-compatible
201 and allows for version numbers like "3.1.0-dev".
202 ! %HTML.Allowed deals gracefully with whitespace anywhere, anytime!
203 ! HTML Purifier's URI handling is a lot more robust, with much stricter
204 validation checks and better percent encoding handling. Thanks Gareth Heyes
205 for indicating security vulnerabilities from lax percent encoding.
206 ! Bootstrap autoloader deals more robustly with classes that don't exist,
207 preventing class_exists($class, true) from barfing.
208 - InterchangeBuilder now alphabetizes its lists
209 - Validation error in configdoc output fixed
210 - Iconv and other encoding errors muted even with custom error handlers that
211 do not honor error_reporting
212 - Add protection against imagecrash attack with CSS height/width
213 - HTMLPurifier::instance() created for consistency, is equivalent to getInstance()
214 - Fixed and revamped broken ConfigForm smoketest
215 - Bug with bool/null fields in Printer_ConfigForm fixed
216 - Bug with global forbidden attributes fixed
217 - Improved error messages for allowed and forbidden HTML elements and attributes
218 - Missing (or null) in configdoc documentation restored
219 - If DOM throws and exception during parsing with PH5P (occurs in newer versions
220 of DOM), HTML Purifier punts to DirectLex
221 - Fatal error with unserialization of ScriptRequired
222 - Created directories are now chmod'ed properly
223 - Fixed bug with fallback languages in LanguageFactory
224 - Standalone testing setup properly with autoload
225 . Out-of-date documentation revised
226 . UTF-8 encoding check optimization as suggested by Diego
227 . HTMLPurifier_Error removed in favor of exceptions
228 . More copy() function removed; should use clone instead
229 . More extensive unit tests for HTMLDefinition
230 . assertPurification moved to central harness
231 . HTMLPurifier_Generator accepts $config and $context parameters during
232 instantiation, not runtime
233 . Double-quotes outside of attribute values are now unescaped
235 3.1.0rc1, released 2008-04-22
236 # Autoload support added. Internal require_once's removed in favor of an
237 explicit require list or autoloading. To use HTML Purifier,
238 you must now either use HTMLPurifier.auto.php
239 or HTMLPurifier.includes.php; setting the include path and including
240 HTMLPurifier.php is insufficient--in such cases include HTMLPurifier.autoload.php
241 as well to register our autoload handler (or modify your autoload function
242 to check HTMLPurifier_Bootstrap::getPath($class)). You can also use
243 HTMLPurifier.safe-includes.php for a less performance friendly but more
244 user-friendly library load.
245 # HTMLPurifier_ConfigSchema static functions are officially deprecated. Schema
246 information is stored in the ConfigSchema directory, and the
247 maintenance/generate-schema-cache.php generates the schema.ser file, which
248 is now instantiated. Support for userland schema changes coming soon!
249 # HTMLPurifier_Config will now throw E_USER_NOTICE when you use a directive
250 alias; to get rid of these errors just modify your configuration to use
251 the new directive name.
252 # HTMLPurifier->addFilter is deprecated; built-in filters can now be
253 enabled using %Filter.$filter_name or by setting your own filters using
255 # Directive-level safety properties superceded in favor of module-level
256 safety. Internal method HTMLModule->addElement() has changed, although
257 the externally visible HTMLDefinition->addElement has *not* changed.
258 ! Extra utility classes for testing and non-library operations can
259 be found in extras/. Specifically, these are FSTools and ConfigDoc.
260 You may find a use for these in your own project, but right now they
261 are highly experimental and volatile.
262 ! Integration with PHPT allows for automated smoketests
263 ! Limited support for proprietary HTML elements, namely <marquee>, sponsored
264 by Chris. You can enable them with %HTML.Proprietary if your client
266 ! Support for !important CSS cascade modifier. By default, this will be stripped
267 from CSS, but you can enable it using %CSS.AllowImportant
268 ! Support for display and visibility CSS properties added, set %CSS.AllowTricky
270 ! HTML Purifier now has its own Exception hierarchy under HTMLPurifier_Exception.
271 Developer error (not enduser error) can cause these to be triggered.
272 ! Experimental kses() wrapper introduced with HTMLPurifier.kses.php
273 ! Finally %CSS.AllowedProperties for tweaking allowed CSS properties without
274 mucking around with HTMLPurifier_CSSDefinition
275 ! ConfigDoc output has been enhanced with version and deprecation info.
276 ! %HTML.ForbiddenAttributes and %HTML.ForbiddenElements implemented.
277 - Autoclose now operates iteratively, i.e. <span><span><div> now has
278 both span tags closed.
279 - Various HTMLPurifier_Config convenience functions now accept another parameter
280 $schema which defines what HTMLPurifier_ConfigSchema to use besides the
282 - Fix bug with trusted script handling in libxml versions later than 2.6.28.
283 - Fix bug in ExtractStyleBlocks with comments in style tags
284 - Fix bug in comment parsing for DirectLex
285 - Flush output now displayed when in command line mode for unit tester
286 - Fix bug with rgb(0, 1, 2) color syntax with spaces inside shorthand syntax
287 - HTMLPurifier_HTMLDefinition->addAttribute can now be called multiple times
288 on the same element without emitting errors.
289 - Fixed fatal error in PH5P lexer with invalid tag names
290 . Plugins now get their own changelogs according to project conventions.
291 . Convert tokens to use instanceof, reducing memory footprint and
292 improving comparison speed.
293 . Dry runs now supported in SimpleTest; testing facilities improved
294 . Bootstrap class added for handling autoloading functionality
295 . Implemented recursive glob at FSTools->globr
296 . ConfigSchema now has instance methods for all corresponding define*
298 . A couple of new historical maintenance scripts were added.
299 . HTMLPurifier/HTMLModule/Tidy/XHTMLAndHTML4.php split into two files
300 . tests/index.php can now be run from any directory.
301 . HTMLPurifier_Token subclasses split into seperate files
302 . HTMLPURIFIER_PREFIX now is defined in Bootstrap.php, NOT HTMLPurifier.php
303 . HTMLPURIFIER_PREFIX can now be defined outside of HTML Purifier
304 . New --php=php flag added, allows PHP executable to be specified (command
306 . htmlpurifier_add_test() preferred method to translate test files in to
307 classes, because it handles PHPT files too.
308 . Debugger class is deprecated and will be removed soon.
309 . Command line argument parsing for testing scripts revamped, now --opt value
311 . Smoketests now cleanup after magic quotes
312 . Generator now can output comments (however, comments are still stripped
313 from HTML Purifier output)
314 . HTMLPurifier_ConfigSchema->validate() deprecated in favor of
315 HTMLPurifier_VarParser->parse()
316 . Integers auto-cast into float type by VarParser.
317 . HTMLPURIFIER_STRICT removed; no validation is performed on runtime, only
318 during cache generation
319 . Reordered script calls in maintenance/flush.php
320 . Command line scripts now honor exit codes
321 . When --flush fails in unit testers, abort tests and print message
322 . Improved documentation in docs/dev-flush.html about the maintenance scripts
323 . copy() methods removed in favor of clone keyword
325 3.0.0, released 2008-01-06
326 # HTML Purifier is PHP 5 only! The 2.1.x branch will be maintained
327 until PHP 4 is completely deprecated, but no new features will be added
329 + Visibility declarations added
330 + Constructor methods renamed to __construct()
331 + PHP4 reference cruft removed (in progress)
332 ! CSS properties are now case-insensitive
333 ! DefinitionCacheFactory now can register new implementations
334 ! New HTMLPurifier_Filter_ExtractStyleBlocks for extracting <style> from
335 documents and cleaning their contents up. Requires the CSSTidy library
336 <http://csstidy.sourceforge.net/>. You can access the blocks with the
337 'StyleBlocks' Context variable ($purifier->context->get('StyleBlocks')).
338 The output CSS can also be "scoped" for a specific element, use:
339 %Filter.ExtractStyleBlocksScope
340 ! Experimental support for some proprietary CSS attributes allowed:
341 opacity (and all of the browser-specific equivalents) and scrollbar colors.
342 Enable by setting %CSS.Proprietary to true.
343 - Colors missing # but in hex form will be corrected
344 - CSS Number algorithm improved
345 - Unit testing and multi-testing now on steroids: command lines,
346 XML output, and other goodies now added.
347 . Unit tests for Injector improved
349 + HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_CSS_AlphaValue
350 + HTMLPurifier_AttrDef_CSS_Filter
351 . Multitest now has a file docblock
353 2.1.3, released 2007-11-05
354 ! tests/multitest.php allows you to test multiple versions by running
355 tests/index.php through multiple interpreters using `phpv` shell
356 script (you must provide this script!)
357 - Fixed poor include ordering for Email URI AttrDefs, causes fatal errors
359 - Injector algorithm further refined: off-by-one error regarding skip
360 counts for dormant injectors fixed
361 - Corrective blockquote definition now enabled for HTML 4.01 Strict
362 - Fatal error when <img> tag (or any other element with required attributes)
363 has 'id' attribute fixed, thanks NykO18 for reporting
364 - Fix warning emitted when a non-supported URI scheme is passed to the
365 MakeAbsolute URIFilter, thanks NykO18 (again)
366 - Further refine AutoParagraph injector. Behavior inside of elements
367 allowing paragraph tags clarified: only inline content delimeted by
368 double newlines (not block elements) are paragraphed.
369 - Buggy treatment of end tags of elements that have required attributes
370 fixed (does not manifest on default tag-set)
371 - Spurious internal content reorganization error suppressed
372 - HTMLDefinition->addElement now returns a reference to the created
373 element object, as implied by the documentation
374 - Phorum mod's HTML Purifier help message expanded (unreleased elsewhere)
375 - Fix a theoretical class of infinite loops from DirectLex reported
377 - Work around unnecessary DOMElement type-cast in PH5P that caused errors
379 - Work around PHP 4 SimpleTest lack-of-error complaining for one-time-only
380 HTMLDefinition errors, this may indicate problems with error-collecting
382 - Make ErrorCollectorEMock work in both PHP 4 and PHP 5
383 - Make PH5P work with PHP 5.0 by removing unnecessary array parameter typedef
384 . %Core.AcceptFullDocuments renamed to %Core.ConvertDocumentToFragment
385 to better communicate its purpose
386 . Error unit tests can now specify the expectation of no errors. Future
387 iterations of the harness will be extremely strict about what errors
389 . Extend Injector hooks to allow for more powerful injector routines
390 . HTMLDefinition->addBlankElement created, as according to the HTMLModule
392 . Doxygen configuration file updated, with minor improvements
393 . Test runner now checks for similarly named files in conf/ directory too.
394 . Minor cosmetic change to flush-definition-cache.php: trailing newline is
396 . Maintenance script for generating PH5P patch added, original PH5P source
397 file also added under version control
398 . Full unit test runner script title made more descriptive with PHP version
399 . Updated INSTALL file to state that 4.3.7 is the earliest version we
402 2.1.2, released 2007-09-03
403 ! Implemented Object module for trusted users
404 ! Implemented experimental HTML5 parsing mode using PH5P. To use, add
406 require_once 'HTMLPurifier/Lexer/PH5P.php';
407 $config->set('Core', 'LexerImpl', 'PH5P');
408 Note that this Lexer introduces some classes not in the HTMLPurifier
409 namespace. Also, this is PHP5 only.
410 ! CSS property border-spacing implemented
411 - Fix non-visible parsing error in DirectLex with empty tags that have
412 slashes inside attribute values.
413 - Fix typo in CSS definition: border-collapse:seperate; was incorrectly
414 accepted as valid CSS. Usually non-visible, because this styling is the
415 default for tables in most browsers. Thanks Brett Zamir for pointing
417 - Fix validation errors in configuration form
418 - Hammer out a bunch of edge-case bugs in the standalone distribution
419 - Inclusion reflection removed from URISchemeRegistry; you must manually
420 include any new schema files you wish to use
421 - Numerous typo fixes in documentation thanks to Brett Zamir
422 . Unit test refactoring for one logical test per test function
423 . Config and context parameters in ComplexHarness deprecated: instead, edit
424 the $config and $context member variables
425 . HTML wrapper in DOMLex now takes DTD identifiers into account; doesn't
426 really make a difference, but is good for completeness sake
427 . merge-library.php script refactored for greater code reusability and
430 2.1.1, released 2007-08-04
431 - Fix show-stopper bug in %URI.MakeAbsolute functionality
432 - Fix PHP4 syntax error in standalone version
433 . Add prefix directory to include path for standalone, this prevents
434 other installations from clobbering the standalone's URI schemes
435 . Single test methods can be invoked by prefixing with __only
437 2.1.0, released 2007-08-02
438 # flush-htmldefinition-cache.php superseded in favor of a generic
439 flush-definition-cache.php script, you can clear a specific cache
440 by passing its name as a parameter to the script
441 ! Phorum mod implemented for HTML Purifier
442 ! With %Core.AggressivelyFixLt, <3 and similar emoticons no longer
443 trigger HTML removal in PHP5 (DOMLex). This directive is not necessary
444 for PHP4 (DirectLex).
445 ! Standalone file now available, which greatly reduces the amount of
446 includes (although there are still a few files that reside in the
448 ! Relative URIs can now be transformed into their absolute equivalents
449 using %URI.Base and %URI.MakeAbsolute
450 ! Ruby implemented for XHTML 1.1
451 ! You can now define custom URI filtering behavior, see enduser-uri-filter.html
453 ! UTF-8 font names now supported in CSS
454 - AutoFormatters emit friendly error messages if tags or attributes they
456 - ConfigForm's compactification of directive names is now configurable
457 - AutoParagraph autoformatter algorithm refined after field-testing
458 - XHTML 1.1 now applies XHTML 1.0 Strict cleanup routines, namely
460 - Contents of <style> tags removed by default when tags are removed
461 . HTMLPurifier_Config->getSerial() implemented, this is extremely useful
462 for output cache invalidation
463 . ConfigForm printer now can retrieve CSS and JS files as strings, in
464 case HTML Purifier's directory is not publically accessible
465 . Introduce new text/itext configuration directive values: these represent
466 longer strings that would be more appropriately edited with a textarea
467 . Allow newlines to act as separators for lists, hashes, lookups and
469 . ConfigForm generates textareas instead of text inputs for lists, hashes,
470 lookups, text and itext fields
471 . Hidden element content removal genericized: %Core.HiddenElements can
472 be used to customize this behavior, by default <script> and <style> are
474 . Added HTMLPURIFIER_PREFIX constant, should be used instead of dirname(__FILE__)
475 . Custom ChildDef added to default include list
476 . URIScheme reflection improved: will not attempt to include file if class
477 already exists. May clobber autoload, so I need to keep an eye on it
478 . ConfigSchema heavily optimized, will only collect information and validate
479 definitions when HTMLPURIFIER_SCHEMA_STRICT is true.
480 . AttrDef_URI unit tests and implementation refactored
481 . benchmarks/ directory now protected from public view with .htaccess file;
482 run the tests via command line
483 . URI scheme is munged off if there is no authority and the scheme is the
485 . All unit tests inherit from HTMLPurifier_Harness, not UnitTestCase
486 . Interface for URIScheme changed
487 . Generic URI object to hold components of URI added, most systems involved
488 in URI validation have been migrated to use it

496 linkify your HTML input by setting %AutoFormat.AutoParagraph and
497 %AutoFormat.Linkify to true
498 ! Newlines normalized internally, and then converted back to the
499 value of PHP_EOL. If this is not desired, set your newline format
500 using %Output.Newline.
501 ! Beta error collection, messages are implemented for the most generic
502 cases involving Lexing or Strategies
503 - Clean up special case code for <script> tags
504 - Reorder includes for DefinitionCache decorators, fixes a possible
506 - Fixed bug where manually modified definitions were not saved via cache
507 (mostly harmless, except for the fact that it would be a little slower)
508 - Configuration objects with different serials do not clobber each
509 others when revision numbers are unequal
510 - Improve Serializer DefinitionCache directory permissions checks
511 - DefinitionCache no longer throws errors when it encounters old
512 serial files that do not conform to the current style
513 - Stray xmlns attributes removed from configuration documentation

521 hash, then revision number
522 . %Core.DefinitionCache renamed to %Cache.DefinitionImpl
523 . Interlinking in configuration documentation added using
524 Injector_PurifierLinkify
525 . Directives now keep track of aliases to themselves
526 . Error collector now requires a severity to be passed, use PHP's internal
527 error constants for this

529 much easier selective embedding of configuration values
530 . Doctype objects now accept public and system DTD identifiers
531 . %HTML.Doctype is now constrained by specific values, to specify a custom
532 doctype use new %HTML.CustomDoctype

536 2.0.0, released 2007-06-20
537 # Completely refactored HTMLModuleManager, decentralizing safety
539 # Transform modules changed to Tidy modules, which offer more flexibility
540 and better modularization
541 # Configuration object now finalizes itself when a read operation is
542 performed on it, ensuring that its internal state stays consistent.
543 To revert this behavior, you can set the $autoFinalize member variable
544 off, but it's not recommended.
545 # New compact syntax for AttrDef objects that can be used to instantiate
546 new objects via make()
547 # Definitions (esp. HTMLDefinition) are now cached for a significant
548 performance boost. You can disable caching by setting %Core.DefinitionCache
549 to null. You CANNOT edit raw definitions without setting the corresponding
550 DefinitionID directive (%HTML.DefinitionID for HTMLDefinition).
551 # Contents between <script> tags are now completely removed if <script>
553 # Prototype-declarations for Lexer removed in favor of configuration
554 determination of Lexer implementations.
