• Added $model->pkit_query method which is a wrapper to

  HTML::Template::query

• Added support for <PKIT_VAR NAME="LAST_CRUMB">
• Fixed errors with s/cookie_crumb/bread_crumb/
• Added session_expires to control the expire time for

  the session cookie

0.95 Tue Jan 16 15:12:21 2001 EST

• Added method $model->pkit_redirect($url)
• Cache files are now 'chown'ed to the user and group

  specified in the User and Group apache configuration directives. This is because the cache files are generated under server startup, which is typically run under 'root', but the cache files need to be writeable by the Apache children, which run under a non-root user.

• Made the Model base class (MyPageKit::Common) user

  configurable, using the model_bass_class global configuration option. This way two or more distinct pagekit sites can operate on the same server.

• Added cache_dir global configuration option that

  allows the administrator to specify the directory to store the view and content cache.

• Fixed Apache::PageKit::Model->dbh so that it calls

  MyPageKit::Common->pkit_dbi_connect if there isn't already a database handle.

0.94 Wed Jan 10 02:25:51 2001 EST

• Replaced derived Apache::PageKit handler module (eg MyPageKit)

  with MyPageKit::Common and Apache::PageKit->handler. See migration/README for details.

• Changed structure of Model to allow for multiple model

  objects, each containing a reference to a common $pk object.

• <PKIT_ERRORFONT name="foo"> bar</PKIT_ERRORFONT> is now

  precompiled to <TMPL_VAR NAME="PKIT_ERRORFONT_BEGIN_foo"> bar</TMPL_VAR NAME="PKIT_ERRORFONT_END_foo"> for improved performance.

• $dbh, $apr, and $session are now accessed from model through

  dbh, apr, and session methods.

• Added docs on support for dynamically loaded components

  that get specified at runtime using systax like <PKIT_COMPONENT NAME="<MODEL_VAR NAME="foo">">

• You can now pass a hash reference to set multiple parameters

  for output_param method

• Removed support for PKIT_INTERNET_EXPLORER and

  PKIT_NETSCAPE tags. These tags clutter the API and are easily implemented in the model.

0.93 Wed Jan 03 01:49:06 2001 EST

• Fixed documentation in Apache::PageKit::Model,

  where output_param method was listed as param.

• Updated pagekit.org web site with links to

  a browsable repository of source code and more documentation.

• Fixed problem with make test, with language

  cache files conflicting b/c of different default languages in test.

0.92 Sun Dec 31 21:32:30 2000 EST

• Rewrote Model class so that Model classes are

  standalone and not dependent on the PageKit architecture.

  • functions in Model now get called

    as methods of derived Model class

  • inputs and outputs are now accessed

    by $model->input_param and $model->output_param instead of $apr->param and $view->param

  • $pk->redirect is no longer available
  • $pk->continue no longer available, use

    $model->pkit_set_page_id instead

  • $pk->message moved to $model->pkit_message
  • page and component_dispatch_prefix replaced

    by model_dispatch_prefix

• XML and template files are now parsed by calling

  Apache::PageKit::startup function. Should fix problems when PageKit is used inside a <Directory>, <Location> or <Files> section.

• Fixed bug with not getting fill_in_form configuration

  setting in View.pm

• Fixed bugs with language localization and session

  management.

• Improved language localization example on pagekit.org

  web site

0.91 Tue Dec 26 04:05:56 2000 EST

• Changed name of page_id_match configuration directive to

  uri_match.

• Fixed some permission problems when 'make test' is run

  as root.

0.90 Sun Dec 24 01:26:18 2000 EST

• Major changes in API and streamlining of pagekit

  in preparation for 1.0 beta release.

• Removed seldom used options and replaced others with

  more user-friendly versions.

• Renamed Controller directory to Config directory
• Renamed <TMPL_VAR> and <TMPL_LOOP> tags to

  <MODEL_VAR> and <MODEL_LOOP> for Model Data and <CONTENT_VAR> and <CONTENT_LOOP> for Content Data and <PKIT_VAR> and <PKIT_LOOP> for PageKit Data

• Renamed <PKIT_INCLUDE> to <PKIT_COMPONENT> and replaced

  'include' with 'component' across the framework

• Moved and renamed nav_title option from config to

  <NAV_TITLE> </NAV_TITLE> in content XML for better foreign language support.

• Renamed Apache::PageKit::FormValidator to Apache::PageKit::Model

  and redesigned class to replace form_validator constructor option with $model->validate_input($hash_ref) method. Eliminated error_page and error_page_run_code options (user should use $pk->continue in model instead). This should make the development easier because all the logic is in the Model class instead being scattered across the derived class and configuration.

• View templates get pre-parsed using file_cache/cache option of

  HTML::Template, and the HTML can be optimized by using HTML::Clean if html_clean_level is set to >=1

• Changed template_cache option to use yes for cache

  in HTML::Template and no for file_cache. Got rid of shared_cache, since it is problematic and file_cache is almost as fast.

• Moved fill_in_form to page attr from global attr
• Removed support for domains, including page_domain,

  domain, is_topdomain attributes.

• Removed page based linking attributes, including

  support for <PKIT_LINK> and <PKIT_JAVASCRIPT> tags and is_popup, is_secure, popup_width, and popup_height.

0.89 Sun Dec 3 18:27:11 2000 EST

• Major changes in API, leading up to 0.9 pre-beta and 1.0 beta release
• Created Apache::PageKit::Config, for configuration directives,

  replacing Apache::PageKit::Info

• Created Apache::PageKit::Content, for XML content
• Created content XML files for separation of

  content from presentation

• Reorganized pagekit.org files into Model/View/Content/Controller

  directories

• Rewrote pagekit.org site to use DBD::Sprite and Apache::Session::File

  instead of MySQL, so could include in test suite without requiring MySQL

• Used Apache::Test in test suite to test working copy of pagekit.org

  web site.
