What's new in HTML mode 2.1.4
• The package Better Templates is turned off in HTML mode because of
incompatibility. (Only in Alpha 7.1 and above.)
• Added support for iCab.
• Fixed problem with translation of ¡ and ¿.
• Alpha looks for more than one <!-- LASTMODIFIED --> when saving.
• Some few changes to the attributes of some elements according to errata
of the HTML 4.0 specification.
• A few other minor bug fixes.
What's new in HTML mode 2.1.3
• In the prefs dialog "Attributes…" the settings in the two checkboxes
weren't saved between sessions. Fixed!
What's new in HTML mode 2.1.2
• When including the same include file more than once in a document, Alpha
thought there was an infinite loop of includes. Fixed!
What's new in HTML mode 2.1.1
• HTML mode now recognizes the prefs variable indentationAmount and
doesn't just indent with tabs.
What's new in HTML mode 2.1
• Added support for HTML 4.0.
• The Packages menu is gone. Global preferences for which elements
and attributes to use are set using 'Attributes...' in the Preferences
submenu.
• The way to choose which attributes to be asked about has been
modified and simplified (I hope).
• The event handlers are treated in the same way as other attributes.
The setting 'Include event handlers in attribute dialogs' is gone.
• A document type declaration can now be inserted when creating a new
document. This document type declaration is used by HTML mode to
determine which elements and attributes are allowed.
• Relative links in dynamically included
files can now be built when the files are included. No need anymore
to use absolute links in the included files.
• Recursive including of files is now supported. One file can include
another file which includes another file which...
• Include tags can now be pasted from the home page windows.
• By default 'Insert include tags' only inserts the tags and not the
file. This behavior can be changed in the preferences.
• Added many new character entities. Key bindings for the entities
can now be defined.
• Removed 'Word complete' and the various tab functions from the
Editing submenu. The functionality is still there! HTML mode now uses
global functions for this. If you want to modify the key bindings for
these functions, this is now done using Config -> Global ->
Special Keys...
• In Alpha 7.0 word completion now requires that Elec Completions
in activated in the Packages submenu. In Alpha 7.1 it requires
that Elec Completions is checked in the dialog Config -> Global ->
Menus and Features...
• Cmd-double-clicking on HREF="file#anchor" now makes Alpha jump to
the anchor.
• Added electric completions to JavaScript mode. (They also work in
HTML mode.)
• Tranformation of all tags to uppercase or lowercase.
• To save your ears Alpha now only beeps for the first attribute when
using the status bar.
• Alpha can also flash the status bar when asking for attributes.
• Setting for case sensitive link checking now also applies to Big
Brother.
• Chosing a new browser now also sends the window to the browser
unless the option key is pressed.
• Changed the key binding for 'New Document' to make it the same as in
other modes.
• Changed default menu icons.
• The tab marks are now called template stops, which is the term used
elsewhere in Alpha.
