* Allow [[0]] to be renamed
* Fix the $wgRawHtml check so it actually works
* (bug 776) Old title as default for new title when moving pages [modified patch from guanaco]
currently which make it a dubious thing to try to do). Fix HTML for
error display on move. Add error class to style sheets. Fix error call
in protect. Remove dupe function that was moved from skin to output.
* Split MediaWiki namespace into MediaWiki and Template (requires changes to all language files)
* Purge links to on edit of Template namespace
* General refactoring of purging and cache invalidation code
This saves trouble in a number of places where we can now do joins with the link tables to get other info (such as cur_is_redirect!) as well as the name, and fewer bits need to be juggled on page renaming, as outgoing links no longer have to be changed (cur_id remains the same when a page is renamed).
rebuildLinks.inc and some of the tools in the 'maintenance page' still need to be updated to work with the new setup. (Special:Maintenance needs a *lot* of cleanup in general. It's kind of a catch-all of vaguely defined features which suck performance like a hydroelectric dam.)
Also I've slipped in some extra debug code. And, I think 'indexes.sql' is a big waste of time and should all be moved into tables.sql. Building indexes separately doesn't help on InnoDB and won't do anything on MyISAM either if you're just going to replace the table after it's built with an imported one from a dump which creates it with indexes.
object to encapsulate the handling of get/post variables:
The following grab something out of $_REQUEST. The first parameter is the
variable name and is required. The second is an optional default value:
$wgRequest->getVal() - any type, returns NULL if no default given
$wgRequest->getInt() - forced integer, 0 default
$wgRequest->getText() - runs through $wgLang->recodeInput()
$wgRequest->getBool() - return true/false
$wgRequest->getCheck() - returns true if the var is set, even if to ""
$wgRequest strips slashes at initialization if necessary.
Also in this fine object:
$wgRequest->wasPosted() - returns false if this wasn't a real form post,
so we can protect against faked submissions in get urls.
There's still plenty of work to do, not everything uses the new functions
yet. To test the strict mode, do define('DEBUG_GLOBALS', 1);
practical, clear methods:
Title::getLocalURL() - "/wiki/index.php/Foobar" or "/wiki/index.php?title=Foobar&action=edit"
Title::getFullUrl() - ditto with $wgServer on the front
Title::getInternalUrl() - ditto with $wgInternalServer on the front (for some squid-related functions)
Title::escapeLocalUrl() - local URL escaped for HTML output
Title::escapeFullUrl() - full URL escaped for HTML output
All take an optional query parameter.
Title::getURL(), wfFullUrl() and wfFullUrlE() are now officially
deprecated and will result in instant death. wfLocalUrl() and wfLocalUrlE()
will be killed shortly; they are still used in the language files.
* Converted many instances of globals from the query to $_REQUEST
* Renamed near-useless Title::getURL() to Title::getPartialURL()
* Created new Title::getURL(), to replace wfLocalUrl, wfLocalUrlE, wfFullUrl and wfFullUrlE. Replaced most instances throughout the code
* In Parser.php, generalised stripping of <nowiki>, <pre> and <math> to allow more general use such as nesting
* Moved body of Article::preSaveTransform to Parser.php
* Put lots of comments in Title.php
* Misc. bugs fixed in DatabaseFunctions.php and Skin.php.
* install-utils, install and update utilise Database objects instead of handling their own connections
* schema change for RC improvement -- added rc_type, rc_moved_to_title and rc_moved_to_ns
(specifically, turning brokenlinks on a new page into live links), which
should also fix the old code not touching the cache timestamps for pages
linking to the 'new' title after a move.
