The CakePHP core team is proud to announce the immediate availability of CakePHP 2.3.0-RC2 and 2.2.5[1]. There have been a few small improvementsand fixes since the release of 2.3.0-RC1. If there are no serious issues reported 2.3.0 stable should be released within a few weeks.
## Changes since 2.3.0-RC1 Since the release fo 2.3.0-RC1 a few new improvements have been added. In addition, all changes in 2.2.5 are also present in 2.3.0-RC2. The new improvments to 2.3.0-RC2 are: * Using an unknown cache engine results in exceptions being thrown. * Improved support for HTML5 attributes. * PaginatorComponent now throws exceptions when users request page numbers that are out of range. This is instead of displaying duplicate content from the last page in the series. * PaginatorHelper::prev() and PaginatorHelper::next() now support the 'disabledTag' option. This option can be used to set the wrapping tag when these controls are not available. * An .editorconfig file was added. * The default doctype is now HTML5 * FormHelper sets the required attribute on inputs based on detected validation rules. * Support for php.ini style numbers was added to CakeNumber::fromReadableSize() * Generated text for pagination buttons in related models are now easier to read. * FormHelper::postLink() sets the target attribute on the form element instead of the a element. See the changelog[2] for a full list of changes in 2.3.0-RC2 ## Changes in 2.2.5 2.2.5 is a bugfix/maintenance release for the 2.2.x release branch. There have been 40 commits & 19 issues fixed since 2.2.4. Some of the notable fixes are: * Fields using the || operator are now quoted correctly. * Stack traces on error pages now highlight code excerpts correctly. * File inputs no longer include the value attribute. This fixes HTML validation with HTML5 doctypes. * ConsoleOptionParser now correctly handles options with the value of '0'. * Mysql datasource now correctly handles indexes with a length value. * The 5th argument is no longer passed to mail() when safe_mode is active. * Email bodies are now wrapped at 998 instead of 78 characters. This fixes issues where HTML content would be spliced. * TreeBehavior and nested deletes work as expected now. * Infinite loops when rendering error 500 pages with extensions declared by Router::parseExtensions() have been fixed. * Requests to the SecurityComponent's blackholeCallback are now blackholed. This was an issue when using a public unprefixed method as the SecurityComponent's blackhole callback. * Theme names are now consistently camelcased in both helper assets & view files. * FormHelper::radio() now treats boolean values as equivalents to 1 and 0 respectively. * Hash::expand() no longer loops infinitely in PHP5.2 when expanding deeply nested structures.
