amiga-news.de: Comment script improved once more
The latest comment script from June the 26th has been
improved again due to several reader's hints and advices.
Update
Bug fixes:
- A session already runnig had been started again sometimes
which led to an error message.
- URLs within the comments with upper cases other than 'A'
got no working link for clicking (Petra Struck).
- At URLs within the comments which include a '=' the
generated link was incomplete and not working (Martin Heine, Christoph Gutjahr).
- When clicking on "Notify staff about this message" button
the session ID was not passed through, thus leading in a
loss of the login status.
Changes:
- The [Permalink] and "Notify staff about this message" button
reside now in the brackets in the upper line together
with (News message, ...) (oGALAXYo, _PAB_,
Christoph Gutjahr).
- "Notify staff about this message" button as graphic
(oGALAXYo, cbs). Suggestions for a clear icon are
welcome.
- Colour for the admin comments is now '#009999' (Petra Struck).
- New: alt-Text 'Notify staff about this message' is
repeated as title attribute of the button (DaFreak, Christoph Dietz).
If you encounter problems with the new script or discover bugs
we kindly ask you to report this in detail (including
information about the used OS and browser) to our staff.
It might be helpful to delete all old cookies of
amiga-news.de. (ps) (Translation: ub)

IBrowse: New IBPreferences custom class available
Testing under OS4 revealed a long standing bug in the IBrowse 2.3 preferences custom class, which manifested itself as a crash as soon as the preferences were launched. After a short testing period, the IBrowse development team is pleased to announce the availability of the new bugfixed custom class.
The developers recommend that all users of IBrowse 2.3 install the new custom class, even if they do not have the crash under OS4-Pre, or even use OS4, as the bug is still present and a potential problem.
Note: Those selected users that also tested the fix prior to release should also install this final release in place of the test version they were sent.
