Automatic or manual collapsing and expanding of long pages.
Pages can be collapsed automatically according to a size threshold
set in the user preferences. Pages can be collapsed manually by clicking
the "Collapse" link in the TOC.
When a page is collapsed, only the intro & TOC are displayed. The
individual TOC lines link to section views, which can be individually edited
(classic section editing).
Section editing/viewing behavior has also been improved. When a section
with subsections is viewed or edited, all subsections are also loaded.
Known issues:
- After saving a section, we return to the full article view
rather than the section view, even if we previously were in section view
mode.
- Should work with Standard and Monobook, not tested with Cologne Blue yet.
- In Monobook, no backlink to the mother article is shown during section
viewing (Gabriel, can you fix that?)
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);
