XOOPS: Xoops 2.0.10 Beta 2 Released
Posted by: MithrandirOn 2005/3/27 20:06:58 7756 readsThank you goes out to everyone in the XOOPS community who have tried the first beta version of XOOPS 2.0.10
There were some bugs that weren't fixed and a couple of new ones introduced in this version that we try to remedy with the beta 2 release.
XOOPS version 2.0.10 beta 2 is a security-improving release that lessens the use of fopen with URLs and brings a completely new tool for securing modules against CSRF attacks: The XoopsSecurity class. See the first beta announcement for a description of the token system.
This is still a beta, since the token system still needs some testing, but provided we get enough positive feedback, a final 2.0.10 release should be released within 1-2 weeks.
This release contains files for the core-included versions of News and Newbb (1.1 and 1, respectively). If you use Newbb 2 and/or News 1.2 or later, you should not upload the files in modules/news and modules/newbb as they will mess up these modules.

Your module may show erratic behaviour when using the javascript function openWithSelfMain() in a HREF tag. This is because the popup window object is now returned from the function and can result in the main window being replaced with a white page with the words [Object Window]. If you encounter this, add "void " (without quotes) between "javascript:" and "openWithSelfMain" in the HREF tag.
(edit: Don't pay attention to that, it will be changed for the final version, so it doesn't impact on modules)
