a given URL will get the same LoggingPane window after a reload
(at the same position, etc.)

variables that are set with withWindow() and withDocument(). These
context variables affect all MochiKit.DOM functionality (getElement,
createDOM, etc.)

that are enumerable but not accessible (e.g. permission denied)
- MochiKit.Async.Deferred's addCallback/addErrback/addBoth

applied function. This differs from Twisted in that the callback/errback

arguments which are used to create a GET query string

an attribute on a node without raising, roughly equivalent to:
updateNodeAttributes(node, {attr: value})
- New MochiKit.DOM.getNodeAttribute(node, attr) which gets the value of
a node's attribute or returns null without raising
- Fixed a potential IE memory leak if using MochiKit.DOM.addToCallStack
directly (addLoadEvent did not leak, since it clears the handler)

an interactive JavaScript interpreter

in order to provide a live regular expression matching tool
- Added advanced number formatting capabilities to MochiKit.Format:
numberFormatter(pattern, placeholder="", locale="default") and

- Added truncToFixed(aNumber, precision) and roundToFixed(aNumber, precision)
to MochiKit.Format

respond
- Fixed infinite recusion bug when using roundClass("DIV", ...)
- Fixed a bug in MochiKit.Async wait (and callLater) that prevented them
from being cancelled properly

have an apply method, such as alert
- Reliably return null from the string parsing/manipulation functions if
the input can't be coerced to a string (s + "") or the input makes no sense;
e.g. isoTimestamp(null) and isoTimestamp("") return null
2005-10-08 v0.90
- Fixed ISO compliance with toISODate
- Added missing operator.sub
- Placated Mozilla's strict warnings a bit
- Added JSON serialization and unserialization support to MochiKit.Base:
serializeJSON, evalJSON, registerJSON. This is very similar to the repr
API.
- Fixed a bug in the script loader that failed in some scenarios when a script
tag did not have a "src" attribute (thanks Ian!)
- Added new MochiKit.DOM createDOMFunc aliases: H1, H2, H3, BR, HR, TEXTAREA,
P, FORM

and parseQueryString, when available.

- Added some experimental syntax highlighting for the Rounded Corners example,
via the LGPL dp.SyntaxHighlighter 1.2.0 now included in examples/common/lib
- Use an indirect binding for the logger conveniences, so that the global
logger could be replaced by setting MochiKit.Logger.logger to something else
(though an observer is probably a better choice).
- Allow MochiKit.DOM.getElementsByTagAndClassName to take a string for parent,
which will be looked up with getElement
- Fixed bug in MochiKit.Color.fromBackground (was using node.parent instead of
node.parentNode)
- Consider a 304 (NOT_MODIFIED) response from XMLHttpRequest to be success
- Disabled Mozilla map(...) fast-path due to Deer Park compatibility issues
- Possible workaround for Safari issue with swapDOM, where it would get
confused because two elements were in the DOM at the same time with the
same id
- Added missing THEAD convenience function to MochiKit.DOM
- Added lstrip, rstrip, strip to MochiKit.Format
- Added updateNodeAttributes, appendChildNodes, replaceChildNodes to
MochiKit.DOM
- MochiKit.Iter.iextend now has a fast-path for array-like objects
- Added HSV color space support to MochiKit.Visual
- Fixed a bug in the sortable_tables example, it now converts types
correctly
- Fixed a bug where MochiKit.DOM referenced MochiKit.Iter.next from global
scope
2005-08-04 v0.70
- New ajax_tables example, which shows off XMLHttpRequest, ajax, json, and
a little TAL-ish DOM templating attribute language.
- sendXMLHttpRequest and functions that use it (loadJSONDoc, etc.) no longer
ignore requests with status == 0, which seems to happen for cached or local
requests
- Added sendXMLHttpRequest to MochiKit.Async.EXPORT, d'oh.
- Changed scrapeText API to return a string by default. This is API-breaking!
It was dumb to have the default return value be the form you almost never
want. Sorry.
- Added special form to swapDOM(dest, src). If src is null, dest is removed
(where previously you'd likely get a DOM exception).
- Added three new functions to MochiKit.Base for dealing with URL query
strings: urlEncode, queryString, parseQueryString
- MochiKit.DOM.createDOM will now use attr[k] = v for all browsers if the name
starts with "on" (e.g. "onclick"). If v is a string, it will set it to
new Function(v).
- Another workaround for Internet "worst browser ever" Explorer's setAttribute
usage in MochiKit.DOM.createDOM (checked -> defaultChecked).
- Added UL, OL, LI convenience createDOM aliases to MochiKit.DOM
- Packing is now done by Dojo's custom Rhino interpreter, so it's much smaller
now!
2005-07-29 v0.60
- Beefed up the MochiKit.DOM test suite
- Fixed return value for MochiKit.DOM.swapElementClass, could return
false unexpectedly before

- Changed build script to rewrite the URLs in tests to account for the
JSAN-required reorganization
- MochiKit.Compat to potentially work around IE 5.5 issues
(5.0 still not supported). Test.Simple doesn't seem to work there,
though.
- Several minor documentation corrections
2005-07-27 v0.50
- Initial Release
