• Improved the check to make sure the user is not indenting the first item in a list. (#182)

Loki 2.0.2 (December 30, 2008)

• Loki no longer mangles links to email addresses in documents. (#164)
• An error prevented Loki from adding images that were not secured with HTTPS when they were not added from the CMS-integrated list. (#163)
• A bug was introduced in 2.0.1 that stripped the protocol off of links and image sources, even if their locations were on different domains than the editor. (#166)
• Creating a link across multiple blocks now works properly. (#140)
• Loki's optional indenting HTML generator did not escape quote (") characters in attribute values. (#160)

• Fixed the creation of extraneous paragraphs when pasting content into Internet Explorer. (#126)

Loki 2.0 Release Candidate 6 (July 18, 2008)

• A serious bug in an internal range function was causing image insertion to fail if there were more than one image after the insertion point and editing to fail if there were any images after the targeted one. (#113)

• Loki now accepts a whitelist of acceptable inline styles; only styles not on that whitelist will be stripped. A small default list is built-in. (#108)
• Changes to the options system in 2.0rc5 accidentally disabled the horizontal rule masseuse, which resulted in the remove button being left in saved documents. (#120)
• The list of allowable tags no longer needs to be provided in upper case. (#119)
• Fixed two bugs with unmassaging lists. (#121 and #124)
• The contextual menu now appears in the correct position under IE. (#90)

Loki 2.0 Release Candidate 5 (July 16, 2008)

• Icons now properly appear with alpha blending in IE6. (#9)
• Fixed image editing under Firefox 3. (#95)

• Various stability fixes to internal code.

Loki 2.0 Release Candidate 4 (July 2, 2008)

• Loki is now much easier to use without using a helper script:
• There is a new public interface (contained within the new Loki object) for creating instances of the Loki editor. The new interface hides some additional implementation details from the user, and makes it easier to create Loki instances for multiple textareas. (#85)
• In cases where the Loki distribution archive is installed normally (i.e. the filename of the loki.js script is not changed), Loki can determine the URL to its files automatically. (#84)
• It is no longer necessary to separately give the locations of the clipboard helper files; they will be found using the normal Loki base URI. (#86)
• Loki now gives access to its version number in the Loki.version string.
• Four major bugs have been fixed:
• There was an issue that prevented Loki instances from being created if the default site and type regular expressions were not specified. (#87)
• The link dialog was not appearing if CMS integration was not being used. (#88)
• The contextual menu no longer opens at an incorrect position if the editing document has been scrolled. (#77)

• Made the handling of externally-generated tables without theads much less intrusive. (#81)
• Fixed up the behavior of the buttons for removing horizontal rules. (#67)
• Fixed an ECMAScript syntax error. (#73)
• Improved the cleanup of nested paragraphs. (#74)
• Fixed the cleanup of param tags; they are no longer wrapped in paragraphs. (#78)
• Fixed the cell properties dialog. (#80)
• Loki no longer includes references to stylesheets from the original developers' website. (#18)
• PHP helper:
• The add_document_style_sheets method now properly accepts single CSS filenames instead of just arrays of them. (#71)
• Removed all use of static method calls for PHP5 compatibility. (#72)
• Improved the stability of the code that serializes Loki's options, so that no combination will produce invalid JavaScript. (#83)

Loki 2.0 Release Candidate 2 (February 5, 2008)

A number of important issues were fixed over RC1.

• We now display a preemptive message explaining the enhanced privileges needed for clipboard operations on Gecko browsers. (#31)
• Line break elements were being removed when they were at the end of inline elements (instead of just when they occurred at the end of blocks). (#58)
• Content was being lost from multi-paragraph containers that only contained a sole paragraph during cleanup. (#59)
• Fixed an issue with cleanup of BR tags when switching from source view. (#60)
• Running cut or copy on an empty selection was clearing the clipboard. (#62)

Loki 2.0 Release Candidate 1 (January 29, 2008)

• When linking to an existing item, anchors now appear in the order in which they appear in the item, not in alphabetical order. (#50)
• Fixed a bug where the link dialog would sometimes not load the list of existing items. (#52)
• Fixed a bug where containers that should only contain either zero or two or more paragraphs were not cleaned up if they only contained a single paragraph. (#48)
• The PHP helper no longer relies on the SCRIPT_URI server variable, which is not always available. (#53)
• Fixed a bug where the Loki HTML parser sometimes overran the ends of tags. (#57)
• The JavaScript generated by the PHP helper is now more error-aware and more robust in cases where multiple instances of Loki are being generated on one page.
• The readme file is now more informative (but still not informative enough).
• Internals:
• Better support for operations on ranges in Internet Explorer: better node insertion and range positioning implementations, implementations for cloning and deleting the contents of the range, and the ability to create new ranges on documents.
• New utility functions for traversing a DOM node's ancestry and finding its offset within its parent.
• The Python helper (and thus the build script) now ignores JavaScript files that begin with ".". Certain editors can leave these files lying around, and they were being erroneously included in builds.

Loki 2.0 Beta 4 (January 19, 2008)

• The new link dialog will now default to displaying the tab that was last used to create a link. (#37)
• Pressing Enter/Return within a dialog now submits it (unless the cursor is in a position where Enter does something special, like selecting a dropdown item). (#38)
• The link dialog now allows the user to manually enter in an anchor name when the list of anchors can not be determined. (#19)
• A button was added to the toolbar that forces Loki to clean up the editing document when it is pressed. (#56)
• Loki can now always cleanup pasted content, even if the user uses the browser's menu to do so or otherwise bypasses Loki's clipboard capabilities. (#54)
• Loki now better enforces proper HTML document structure. (#55)
• The above cleanup changes fix some bizarre Mozilla behavior that occurs when plain text with line breaks is pasted in. (#8)
• Error messages are now cleared when the retry link is clicked. (#25)
• Loki can now be configured to allow changes to the size of an image made using the browser's controls to be preserved when the document is saved. (#27)
• Illegally self-nested HTML elements (e.g. a B tag within another B tag) are now cleaned up. (#29)
• Loki now cleans up unnecessary BR tags that are the last children of their parents. (#39)
• The labels on the indent and outdent buttons were changed to be more friendly and informative. (#43)

Loki 2.0 Beta 3 (December 19, 2007)

• Fixed a bug that made it impossible to link to an anchor on the item being edited. (#4)
• The link dialog no longer displays the last existing item you linked to as the default when the user goes to create a new link to an existing item. (#5)
• Directly editing anchors is now possible. (#13)
• Loki no longer replaces special punctuation characters with ASCII equivalents. (#14)
