New 0.9 release of HTTP::Request::Form
Georg Bauer
Almost a year after the 0.7 I have a new release ready (0.8 was an
internal release because I forogt to upload it :-) ). This new release
includes some bugfixes and new features.
0.8 had some bugfixes and some extensions:
- textarea should now work in both forms. Before there was either
a problem with textareas that included some default text, or
with empty textareas. Now Form.pm does look wether the contents
of a textarea is able to perform as_HTML and only uses it if
it is able to do it. Should fix some longstanding problems with
textareas.
- ex/yahoo.pl wasn't in the MANIFEST
- added a simple test procedure that just checks if it can be
loaded
0.9 has some bugfixes and some extensions by Sean M. Burke:
- ISINDEX is supported
- a new constructor new_many is available that parses all forms of
a HTML file so you don't have to manually extract links any
more. This constructor handles stray form elements outside of
forms.
- the name of form elements is cached and can be queried
The new features of 0.9 aren't fully tested by me, so take some care if
you use them. I would like to be informed wether everything works as
expected. Sorry for the long delay of the new release.
bye, Georg
