Fixed a XSS security bug in the RSS action.

Fixed 'Cannot redeclare class' error message for RSS action when viewed through the history handler.
Tweaked the CSS for the edit preview header. It stays fixed in Firefox and looks pretty cool. Looks plain in IE.

Wikka 1.1.3.5
Released on August 03 2004

Fixed a security bug introduced in the Action function in version 1.1.3.1. Thanks to an anonymous user for exploiting it in the sandbox and bringing it to my attention.

Fixed a small bug in the Link function which prevented inserting links with a &. Thanks to AndreaRossato.

Wikka 1.1.3.3
Released on August 02 2004

Fixed bug in diff highlighting of code sections. Thanks to DreckFehler.
Modified feedback action to make the email validator case insensitive. Thanks to DarTar.

Wikka 1.1.3.2
Released on August 01 2004

Minor changes over 1.1.3.1...

Wikka 1.1.3.1
Released on August 01 2004

New referrer blacklist system added. Look for the blacklist link while viewing referrers.
htaccess file modified to handle missing / on the end of URL
Feedback action added. Thanks to DarTar.
Modified footer to only show the referrers link to logged on users.
Pages can now be set to Public. This is useful for not cluttering up the PageIndex with many Owner: X.
Googleform action added. Thanks to DreckFehler.
Allow for unnamed parameters to actions. Thanks to DreckFehler.
Fixed forced links in square brackets. Thanks to DreckFehler.
Removed the "show spaces" in wikinames option.
Replaced all calls to UserName() with GetUserName(), and removed the UserName() function.
Modified how PageIndex shows your owned pages.
Added RSS action. Unattributed credit because of WakkaWiki being down and original author not written down.
ACLs are now only stored if they differ from the default ACLs.
Comments are now stored in htmlspecialchar format, instead of being coverted every time the page is shown.
Page deletion queries are now made through Query(), instead of LoadSingle(), which caused unseen errors.
Overly long tags are now prevented from being stored. Thanks to DreckFehler.
and a few other minor changes.

Wikka 1.1.3

Modified Wikka to only store page ACLs in the database if a user has specifically set them.
The old way was to store the default ACLs when a page was created... This would lock in the default ACLs for a certain date, but what if you changed the default ACLs at a later date? The page would still be locked in at the old defaults instead of the way it should work: pages should stay defaulted until someone makes the effort to specifically set the ACLs.
