Release TWiki-4.2.3

Major issues

Fixed in Description
TWiki-4.2.4 TWikibug:Item5922 - $formfield() not displayed in formatted searches for hidden fields

Minor issues

Fixed in Description
Pending Firefox fix Preview has been disabled when using Wysiwyg editor because users of Firefox experience a bug in Firefox which means that they loose all they edited when they hit the back button of the browser. We regard this as a minor issue because preview is not really needed when you edit with Wysiwyg. Preview still works in Raw Edit mode. Firefox 3 did not resolve this issue so it is not likely that preview is reintroduced in a near future
TWiki-4.2.3 TWikibug:Item5939 - Rogue <p /> below </html> on every topic in every web
TWiki-4.2.4 TWikibug:Item5967 - viewfile partly broken

Release TWiki-4.2.2

Major issues

Fixed in Description
TWiki-4.2.3 TWikibug:Item5993: configure image loading code is too liberal.

Release TWiki-4.2.1

TWiki-4.2.2 TWikibug:Item5892 - Registration with verification fails in 4.2.1

TWiki-4.2.2 TWikibug: Item5643 - REVINFO with web specified in topic param renders as though topic does not exist
TWiki-4.2.2 TWikibug:Item5887 - TWiki::Compatibility has undefined variable error

Release TWiki-4.2.0

Major issues

Fixed in Description
TWiki-4.2.1 or CPAN CGI 3.38 If you install TWiki on a very new Linux distribution you may find the error Use of uninitialized value $filename in substitution (s///) at (eval 41) line 23. The error is not in TWiki but in the CPAN library called "CGI" which is part of the default Perl. At least CGI version 3.37 is known to be broken. The fix is to upgrade this library to 3.38 or higher. See Bugs:Item5727 which also describes how to upgrade the library
TWiki-4.2.1 TWikibug:Item5287 - The link feature in the Wysiwyg editor does not work with internal links and in some cases disable the save button or data entered is lost when you save. There is already a fix for this. You can upgrade WysiwygPlugin and TinyMCEPlugin and this problem is fully resolved. If done from configure this can be done by an admin from a browser and takes two minutes. See HowToUpgradeExtensionsWithConfigure
TWiki-4.2.1 TWikibug:Item5307 - Plugins with beforeAttachmentSaveHandler break file attachments.
ALERT! Public TWiki sites that depend on the BlackListPlugin should upgrade to TWiki 4.2.1

Minor issues

Fixed in Description
TWiki-4.2.1 TWikibug:Item4946 - urlDecode() not working for characters represented by Unicode code points. We are looking for unicode experts to help fixing and testing.
TWiki-4.2.1 TWikibug:Item5135 - EditTablePlugin must disable initsort when editing table TABLE tag to work with new move row feature. Work around is to place the EDITTABLE tag before the TABLE tag
TWiki-4.2.1 TWikibug:Item5118 - Difference from 4.1.2 - 4.2: Apache loginname no longer works with access control lists
Pending Firefox fix Preview has been disabled when using Wysiwyg editor because users of Firefox experience a bug in Firefox which means that they loose all they edited when they hit the back button of the browser. We regard this as a minor issue because preview is not really needed when you edit with Wysiwyg. Preview still works in Raw Edit mode. Preview may return later in an improved version when we have found a way to work around the Firefox bug
