April 16, 2002 - version 0.6.1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Finally eliminated any exploits that allow someone to execute arbitrary code (I think). Also added an "email detect" that will detect if the user was a dummy and put in their email address instead of a URL, and add "mailto: to the front of it. April 15, 2002 - version 0.6.0 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Recoded the majority of the script. Optimized the code for speed and to fit cleancode.org's coding standards. Also added timestamping. March 26, 2002 - version 0.5.1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fixed a security bug that allowed for a user to execute JavaScript from the URL field. March 14, 2002 - version 0.5.0 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fixed some problems with the code I optimized that killed the ability to use a MySQL database. This version works with both the flat file, or MySQL, hence the jump in version number. Also added a couple more variables to customize the email that is sent when someone posts (if you have that option enabled). February 25, 2002 - version 0.4.1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fixed an error that occured when the 'notify by email' option was enabled. February 23, 2002 - version 0.4.0 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Compatibility issues with Mozilla, Netscape and older version of IE have been resolved. The error messages are now customizable from within the 'required.php' file, and the index page for the tag board is generated dynamically with the version number, set the max length of each field, and will post a link for emoticon help if emoticons are enabled. Quite a bit of the code has been optimized. The big feature is the ability to choose either using a MySQL database, or a flat file (./tagboard.dat). The new flat file has to have the correct permissions to run correctly (chmod 666), and runs in the same fashion as the MySQL version does. The only limitation to the flat file is that it posts the entire contents of the file, and doesn't allow you to choose the order (yet). February 17, 2002 - version 0.3.2 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fixed the problem where the tag board wouldn't refresh itself after a user posts a message. February 15, 2002 - version 0.3.1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fixed a security hole allowing the use of server-side includes, as well as HTML comments, . February 14, 2002 - version 0.3.0 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tweaked out some code, and added emoticons. January 31, 2002 - version 0.2.0 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added the ability to limit the length of words (to prevent postings such as "wwwwwaaaaaassssssssuuuuupppppp!". A global variable has been added to determine what character will be used to seperate the name and the message, for easy customization. The flood protection is not optional, in case you want to turn it off. You can now specify the max length of the nick and the message. Please note, if you go over the recommended max, without updating the database, then your messages will be cut off. The final update is the addition of an HTML filter, to prohibit people from posting HTML to the tag board, this will keep the kids from posting

text, and screwing everything up. January 28, 2002 - version 0.1.1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added the option to display the posts in ascending or descending order, based on when it was posted. December 13, 2001 - version 0.1.0 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All cusomizable variables added to required.php for easy cusomization. Better flood protection added by not letting the same IP post twice, and the addition of an optional keyword (profanity) checker. December 12, 2001 - version 0.0.2 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Initial release.
