Subject: [Semantic Forms] Version 1.3.1 - "default=current user", popup warning 
for leaving a form, etc.

Hi all,

Version 1.3.1 of Semantic Forms has been released. Additions and changes in 
this version include:

- a field can now be set to hold the current user's username by default, 
through the new 'default=current user' value.




- forms can now be set to warn the user with a popup message if they try to 
leave without saving the page. By default this is turned off, but it can be 
turned on using the new "$sfgConfirmFormExit" flag. Due to some Javascript 
strangeness, the text in the popup is hardcoded - it reads "Are you sure you 
want to navigate away...", etc. in English, regardless of the language of the 
user. This is a problem, and I don't know a way around it, which is part of the 
reason it's off by default.




- there were various fixes to the new template-call parsing code - these
were added in subsequent releases of version 1.3, but if you got
version 1.3 before they went in, they're new. :)



- alternate forms for properties, which weren't working since version 1.2.9, 
are now working again.

- red links are now working for MediaWiki 1.14 - I added a hook into the 
MediaWiki code, that went into version 1.13, that eliminated the need for the 
code patch to get red links to point to forms. However, about a month ago this 
hook was removed, as part of a general restructuring of the code (bringing my 
contributions to MediaWiki itself back to zero). It was replaced with some 
other hooks, and SF now uses those as well if they're available.




- the Javascript for date validation was improved, so that date fields can be 
set to "mandatory".

- the Javascript in the special upload window was improved to be able to work 
with MediaWiki 1.14.




- the Javascript was also modified, using code from Tal Shahar, to try to 
improve the ability to have an uploadable field in a multiple-instance template 
- this still doesn't work fully, but hopefully somehow we can figure out a way 
to get around the remaining problems.


- the version used of the YUI Javascript library was updated from 2.5.1. to 
2.5.2.



- the 'CreateTemplate' page can now create a template with no fields - this 
wasn't working before.

- also, some of the class structure for SF_CreateTemplate.php was improved.

- the 'size' parameter for fields that corresponded to a list of values was 
ignored before, with the size always getting set to 100. This has been fixed.


- language support was added for Egyptian Arabic (yes, apparently it's slightly 
different from regular Arabic - this was a big topic of discussion at 
Wikimania).
