Here's the latest release. A week with no UTF of line spacing
problems. So we are set for 3.xx any time. Perhaps this weekend.

This release has the following--mostly tweaks.

* Fixed time function to properly handle timestamps in to or from parameter.
* Added rules parameter to include function. Limits which rules are
processed on included text. Cool!
* Changed option input so that [option text] is output to the visible
html. To have different internal and external values, use value=
* Reworked how the rss skin is handled to work properly with
action=rss. Also released updated rss plugin and backup.
* Changed mailAddress to siteMail in site.config. Updated mail
function but not newsletter plugin (yet).

Two things to watch for.

1) Check all your forms with [options text] text as it will output
texttext. To fix, do either [options text] or [options value=text]
text. This could really mess up your forms so be careful. Considering
doing a find on [select] on your site, or key sections. Sorry for the
inconvenience, but it does make the forms much easier to generate.

2) Check your mail functions. If you have a mailaddress: parameter in
site.config add a siteMail: parameter with the same value. In fact,
unless you are using the newsletter/email plugin, you probably don't
need the mailaddress parameter anymore.

P.S. Here's the new BoltWire rss feed (from the blog):
http://www.boltwire.com/index.php?p=rss.blog&action=rss
You can see it validates here
http://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=http://www.boltwire.com/index.php%3Fp%3Drss.blog%26action%3Drss

I tried adding the recommended code atom:link think but it just broke
the validation, so I'm not sure what's going on with that. Good enough
I reckon. I don't have descriptions for all the pages though, need to
add those to the blog. So until then your blog feed may not display
perfect. It's just an demo anyway.

Hi Dan, Do you change something to the rss? Because I see a "Sorry" on
the validator results page ... from your link.

Cheers, linly

That's weird. Try again... I thought you were sleeping over there! :)

Cheers,
Dan

P.S. Later, maybe on Sunday, I'll post some thoughts on the RSS
plugin. Won't have time tomorrow. We need to really think how we are
going to do the teasers, and talk about permalinks as well. And maybe
some other features. In digging around into this I realized our RSS
capabilities could still have a bit of room to improve.
