[Zope] ANN: Epoz 0.7.2 released - ready for Plone 2

[Maik Jablonski]

Hi,

I've just released an improved version of Epoz... Many css-fixes 
regarding the use of Epoz in Plone 2 and other important bug fixes (see 
changes below).

What is Epoz?

Epoz is a cross-browser-wysiwyg-editor for Zope/Plone. Epoz supports IE 
 >= 5.5, Mozilla >= 1.3, Netscape >= 7.1, Firebird >= 0.7 and other 
gecko-based browsers.

Where can I see a demo?

What is changed in 0.7.2?

      - changed toolbox-icon into a folder; link-icon and
        toolbox-icon were to similar before.

      - added remove-format-button; this can be useful if you want
        to remove several text-formats at once. Maybe someone can
        provide a better icon? Please note: IE is a little bit
        smarter than Mozilla. IE removes colors as well...

      - made some css-fixes for using Epoz with tableless layout
        in Plone 2:

         - removed nowrap-style around epoz_toolbox;

         - changed toolbox-width in wysiwyg_support from
           absolute px to relative percentage, so Epoz won't
           break the layout anymore;

         - made widget xhtml-compatible.

        Please note: Epoz uses the Plone-CSS to render the content.
        The Plone-CSS doesn't allow other alignments then left-aligned
        for paragraphs and so clicking on the Epoz-alignment-buttons
        shows no effect in Plone. Please don't mail me about this...
        fix the Plone-CSS (remove 'text-align: left;' from
        p-defintion in plone.css).

      - removed break_before_br in EpozTidy to keep pre-formatted
        text in order.
	
      - fixed bug: Stefanie Panke noticed encoding problems
        when using the Euro-Sign. Switched all default
        encodings from ISO-8859-1 to more universal windows-1252.
        Thanks, Stefanie!

      - fixed bug: Casey Duncan from Zope Corporation tracked
        down a subtle bug in the product initialisation process
        of Epoz. Short story: Registering a product and a method
        with the same name (Epoz) can cause conflicts under some
        circumstances (esp. running test-suites in Zope 2.7 etc.).
        Now Epoz is marked as __replaceable__. Thanks, Casey!!!

      - fixed bug: removed hardcoded protocol (http:) in
        XMLRPC-call; Epoz over https: should now work again.
        Thanks to Gabriel Wicke for his complaints!

Keep zoped,

Maik Jablonski
