89 Revision 1.111 1999/12/03 17:59:53 ajc
90 * BROKEN BUILD. Wrote most of the session removal code, but some of it is

123 Revision 1.101 1999/10/06 02:44:02 ajc
124 * Per Nick's request, removed the key bindings stuff. He knows how to fit
125 it back in when it's fixed. Also added more attempts at cache disabling,
126 but it still doesn't work in the StarOffice browser. I don't know why.
128 Revision 1.100 1999/10/02 03:26:14 ajc
129 * Merged in Nick's bit of JavaScript to handle key commands.
130 BROKEN BUILD ALERT!! This runs all the time, even when the cursor is

185 Wed Jun 2 23:47:58 EDT 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
186 * Ditched the frames mode completely. It wasn't working properly in,

189 Sat May 29 00:25:47 EDT 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
190 * Fixed the behavior of the "forget room" routine, to properly handle
191 the transition back to the Lobby after it's all done.
192 * Added ExpressMessageCat() to allow code to send the user messages
193 along with incoming express messages
194 * WebCit now sends the name of the end user's browser as the client
195 name in a Citadel IDEN command rather than its own name.
197 Fri May 21 23:35:17 EDT 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>

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

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

226 Changed some output formatting (mainly <FONT> tags).
227 Changed who.c to use urlescputs() rather than escputs()
228 in urls so GOTOs and User Profiles work when the string has a
231 Wed Apr 14 17:56:18 EDT 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
232 http://www.webreference.com/dhtml/column18/menuFrLoad.html
233 How to cause "onLoad=" to cause a sibling frame to refresh without
234 having to use the nonportable HTTP "Window-Target:" directive. Began
235 implementation of this; it should allow portable NS/IE compatibility.
237 Wed Apr 7 21:51:33 EDT 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
238 * Implemented "access level required to create rooms"
240 Thu Mar 18 00:23:05 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
241 * webcit.c: modified getz() to *exit* the program when fgets()
242 returns an error. This is actually the desired behavior; it would
243 otherwise busy-loop forever on a broken pipe.
245 Sat Mar 6 19:56:07 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
246 * webcit.c: added to getz() the ability to return an error code;

249 * Added HTTP "User-agent:" detection
250 * wildmat.c, braindamage.c: added

255 1999-02-24 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
256 * context_loop.c: warning fix
257 * webcit.c: off_t is a 64-bit `long long' on BSDI (eek!)
259 Sat Jan 30 19:00:58 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
260 * Resolve the name of the connecting host and pass it on to Citadel
262 Fri Jan 29 14:49:49 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
263 * wDumpContent() is now responsible for </BODY></HTML> most of the
264 time (parameter settable) so that the main menu can easily be
265 embedded in every page when running in noframes mode
266 * noframes mode selection is now carried in the cookie
268 Thu Jan 28 20:30:08 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
269 * Made the frames stuff less dependent on the HTML TARGET= directive
270 and more dependent on the HTTP Window-target: directive.
271 * Made the system semi-navigable in noframes mode.
273 Sat Jan 23 19:36:10 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
274 * Brought over the new room listing code and <G>oto heuristics
275 from the main Citadel tree, to pay attention to floor/room ordering
277 Thu Jan 14 17:14:11 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
278 * Modified the back end of mime_parser to use callbacks instead of
279 doing something specific. Now we can use it elsewhere.
281 Mon Jan 11 21:53:16 EST 1999 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
282 * Fixed the bugs in "Site-wide configuration"

289 * Removed wc_host and wc_port cookies.
290 * Added an "edit your session" screen to change your wholisting.

293 * Added "enter registration"
294 * Set up automatic trigger of Enter Registration when the server
296 * Established that a one-to-one WebCit/Citadel correspondence will
297 be required. No big deal due to shared code segments.
298 * Added "change password"
299 * Added networking configuration screens. These still need testing.
300 * Added a "kill session" link to each line of the wholist when
301 logged in as an aide, and the screens to perform this operation.
303 Thu Dec 31 21:53:20 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>

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

346 * automatically regenerate Makefile when Makefile.in changes
348 Sun Dec 13 13:35:12 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
349 * context_loop.c: Moved "remove session" into its own function.
350 Check for dead webcit child process before each transaction.
351 * Ignore SIGPIPE; this seems to magically make the program bulletproof
352 against broken HTTP connections.
353 * Added a housekeeping thread to periodically remove dead sessions
354 and kill idle sessions.
355 * messages.c: added "delete message" functionality
356 * messages.c: added "move message" functionality

370 Wed Dec 9 18:50:46 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
371 * context_loop.c: After fork(), child process closes the HTTP socket
372 so when the parent process closes it, it actually _does_ close.
373 Otherwise, aIEeeee and possibly other browsers will hang.
374 * Added support for graphics images retrieved from the Citadel server.
375 * Set up login banner graphic and background image graphic
377 1998-12-09 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>

382 now works the way it should.
383 * Added support for new user login (still need to handle registration).
385 Tue Dec 8 15:45:42 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
386 * Discovered that the HTTP socket problem is related to a socket that
387 isn't properly lingering on close. Temporarily hacked a sleep(10)
388 into context_loop.c until it is figured out.
390 Mon Dec 7 17:03:18 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
391 * Did a little debugging, still trying to figure out why logging in
392 displays "Connection reset by peer" error. It used to work...
394 1998-12-07 Nathan Bryant <bryant@cs.usm.maine.edu>
395 * Makefile.in: updated dependencies
397 Sun Dec 6 19:50:55 EST 1998 Art Cancro <ajc@uncnsrd.mt-kisco.ny.us>
