ICE 1.2.4 has been released

ICE 1.2.4 is now available for download. As this is a minor release changes include mostly bug fixes however there are some new features including support for the Atom Publishing Protocol.

You can download the latest version via the ICE website from http://ice.usq.edu.au/instructions/downloads.htm.

Changes/features include:

• Superscript and subscript character formatting rendered as sup and sub XHTML elements.

• Main rendering improvements to conform with W3C Strict XHTML 1.0:

  • Content nested within definition lists are contained within dd element.

  • Target attribute on links have been replaced with javascript, i.e. for links that are set to open in a new window.

  • Center and right aligned tables use only CSS.

• Improved control over image alignment in the HTML within paragraphs.

• “links as endnotes” feature added as a document option in the file manger (available for OpenOffice.org and Word documents).

• Basic implementation of the Atom Publishing Protocol (HTML only - no objects). There is a simple demo of this here, to enable this feature add the following line to your .site/site.py file:

  
  

  addFunction(func=publishThis, position=16, postRequired=True, label="Atom Pub", title="Publish this using AtomPub")

Bug fixes include:

• If the li1p style is not in a list it renders with bullet decoration in the HTML.

• Repair documents feature fails if the template doesn't contain the ICE styles menu.

• Footnote and endnote numbers are not within the same paragraph as the text in the HTML.
