Silva 1.5.8 Released

6 november 2006 – Infrae has just released version 1.5.8 of the Silva content management system. This is a maintenance release that fixes various issues:

• Non-ASCII characters in names or values of CodeSource paramaters no longer result in errors.
• Incorrect links entered by hand or imported broke the path adapter. Since this made editing the document impossible, defensive code is added.
• Anchors around divs break in Explorer, so they were put inside the divs in the xslt renderer.
• The user settings screen did not work when a user did not have sufficient rights in the Silva Root.
• The forms editor should now not throw out URL fragment information (#foo). This fixes issue 1592.
• Browser language settings was ignoring the English language (issue 1572).

See HISTORY.txt in the package for complete details of the fixed issues.
