37 * Finished the overhaul. Now to tune...
39 Revision 1.111 1999/12/03 17:59:53 ajc
40 * BROKEN BUILD. Wrote most of the session removal code, but some of it is
41 pseudocode so the build is currently broken.

44 * Repaired HTTP output for image transfers and static content
46 Revision 1.109 1999/12/03 05:09:54 ajc
47 * Rewrote the HTTP engine and application coupling to run in a worker thread
48 model and to run as a single multithreaded program (eliminated helper
49 processes and pipes). It currently runs but has many large bugs.
51 Revision 1.108 1999/12/03 00:18:20 ajc
52 * Added ".c.o" rule to Makefile

71 * Minor bug fix in registration screen
73 Revision 1.101 1999/10/06 02:44:02 ajc
74 * Per Nick's request, removed the key bindings stuff. He knows how to fit
75 it back in when it's fixed. Also added more attempts at cache disabling,
76 but it still doesn't work in the StarOffice browser. I don't know why.
78 Revision 1.100 1999/10/02 03:26:14 ajc
79 * Merged in Nick's bit of JavaScript to handle key commands.
80 BROKEN BUILD ALERT!! This runs all the time, even when the cursor is
81 in a text field. Right now you can't even log in.
83 Revision 1.99 1999/09/01 01:06:11 ajc

103 Wed Jun 30 19:19:59 EDT 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
104 * Added support for "robots.txt" telling spiders to go away.

135 Wed Jun 2 23:47:58 EDT 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
136 * Ditched the frames mode completely. It wasn't working properly in,
137 among other places, IE 5. Die, Bill, Die.
139 Sat May 29 00:25:47 EDT 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
140 * Fixed the behavior of the "forget room" routine, to properly handle
141 the transition back to the Lobby after it's all done.
142 * Added ExpressMessageCat() to allow code to send the user messages
143 along with incoming express messages
144 * WebCit now sends the name of the end user's browser as the client
145 name in a Citadel IDEN command rather than its own name.
147 Fri May 21 23:35:17 EDT 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>

158 Mon May 10 23:09:34 EDT 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
159 * Replaced _most_ gotoroom() calls with smart_goto(), a version

162 Sat May 8 01:07:06 EDT 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
163 * webserver.c: added "-t" option to send traces somewhere else
165 Tue Apr 27 23:36:35 EDT 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>

167 requests a non-root page and there is no cookie set
168 * webserver.c: took my name off the copyright notice (it's a group
171 Sun Apr 18 23:42:54 EDT 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>

175 Thu Apr 16 12:00:00 EDT 1999 Nick Grossman <nicl@ulster.net>
176 Changed some output formatting (mainly <FONT> tags).
177 Changed who.c to use urlescputs() rather than escputs()
178 in urls so GOTOs and User Profiles work when the string has a
181 Wed Apr 14 17:56:18 EDT 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
182 http://www.webreference.com/dhtml/column18/menuFrLoad.html
183 How to cause "onLoad=" to cause a sibling frame to refresh without
184 having to use the nonportable HTTP "Window-Target:" directive. Began
185 implementation of this; it should allow portable NS/IE compatibility.
187 Wed Apr 7 21:51:33 EDT 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
188 * Implemented "access level required to create rooms"
190 Thu Mar 18 00:23:05 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
191 * webcit.c: modified getz() to *exit* the program when fgets()
192 returns an error. This is actually the desired behavior; it would
193 otherwise busy-loop forever on a broken pipe.
195 Sat Mar 6 19:56:07 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
196 * webcit.c: added to getz() the ability to return an error code;
197 implemented this in the main loop, hopefully fixing problems

199 * Added HTTP "User-agent:" detection
200 * wildmat.c, braindamage.c: added
201 * Initial value of 'noframes' is now set by the braindamage check
202 * Ran everything through "indent -kr -i8"
203 * roomops.c: in room list, print a in otherwise empty cells
205 1999-02-24 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
206 * context_loop.c: warning fix
207 * webcit.c: off_t is a 64-bit `long long' on BSDI (eek!)
209 Sat Jan 30 19:00:58 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
210 * Resolve the name of the connecting host and pass it on to Citadel
212 Fri Jan 29 14:49:49 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
213 * wDumpContent() is now responsible for </BODY></HTML> most of the
214 time (parameter settable) so that the main menu can easily be
215 embedded in every page when running in noframes mode
216 * noframes mode selection is now carried in the cookie
218 Thu Jan 28 20:30:08 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
219 * Made the frames stuff less dependent on the HTML TARGET= directive
220 and more dependent on the HTTP Window-target: directive.
221 * Made the system semi-navigable in noframes mode.
223 Sat Jan 23 19:36:10 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
224 * Brought over the new room listing code and <G>oto heuristics
225 from the main Citadel tree, to pay attention to floor/room ordering
227 Thu Jan 14 17:14:11 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
228 * Modified the back end of mime_parser to use callbacks instead of
229 doing something specific. Now we can use it elsewhere.
231 Mon Jan 11 21:53:16 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
232 * Fixed the bugs in "Site-wide configuration"

235 Fri Jan 8 22:20:54 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
236 * Reduced the multiple cookies down to one cookie combining all data.
238 Mon Jan 4 23:04:36 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
239 * Removed wc_host and wc_port cookies.
240 * Added an "edit your session" screen to change your wholisting.
242 Sun Jan 3 20:05:31 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
243 * Added "enter registration"
244 * Set up automatic trigger of Enter Registration when the server
246 * Established that a one-to-one WebCit/Citadel correspondence will
247 be required. No big deal due to shared code segments.
248 * Added "change password"
249 * Added networking configuration screens. These still need testing.
250 * Added a "kill session" link to each line of the wholist when
251 logged in as an aide, and the screens to perform this operation.
253 Thu Dec 31 21:53:20 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>

262 Wed Dec 30 20:36:13 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
263 * Wrote mime_parser.c for handling of image uploads. This will also
264 be used in future Citadel MIME projects.
266 Tue Dec 29 23:25:50 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
267 * Fixed a bug in the room banner display code

276 * Changed the "auto read new" functionality from a meta refresh tag
277 to an "onload" directive (the former was causing graphics problems)

296 * automatically regenerate Makefile when Makefile.in changes
298 Sun Dec 13 13:35:12 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
299 * context_loop.c: Moved "remove session" into its own function.
300 Check for dead webcit child process before each transaction.
301 * Ignore SIGPIPE; this seems to magically make the program bulletproof
302 against broken HTTP connections.
303 * Added a housekeeping thread to periodically remove dead sessions
304 and kill idle sessions.
305 * messages.c: added "delete message" functionality
306 * messages.c: added "move message" functionality

320 Wed Dec 9 18:50:46 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
321 * context_loop.c: After fork(), child process closes the HTTP socket
322 so when the parent process closes it, it actually _does_ close.
323 Otherwise, aIEeeee and possibly other browsers will hang.
324 * Added support for graphics images retrieved from the Citadel server.
325 * Set up login banner graphic and background image graphic
327 1998-12-09 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
328 * context_loop.c, webserver.c, webserver.h: SO_LINGER and locking fix
330 Wed Dec 9 11:13:48 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>

332 now works the way it should.
333 * Added support for new user login (still need to handle registration).
335 Tue Dec 8 15:45:42 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
336 * Discovered that the HTTP socket problem is related to a socket that
337 isn't properly lingering on close. Temporarily hacked a sleep(10)
338 into context_loop.c until it is figured out.
340 Mon Dec 7 17:03:18 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
341 * Did a little debugging, still trying to figure out why logging in
342 displays "Connection reset by peer" error. It used to work...
344 1998-12-07 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
345 * Makefile.in: updated dependencies
347 Sun Dec 6 19:50:55 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
