3DBuzzToolbar

Changelog

v0.8.9.5 to v0.9.0.0

• Added an option for frameless browsing as well as a button to remove frames.Four frame arrangments are possible: all the frames, no frames, only the top frame or only the side frame. It is possible to add the 3DBuzz frames to non-3dbuzz sites.
• Added an option to suppress all warning, alerts and confirmations.
• All text has been put in separate dtd and property files to enable localization.
• Added a button along with a shortcut (Alt+F5) to refresh the main frame.
• Added a menu button with options to add frames, remove frames or update the frame layout. The "add frames" and "remove frames" buttons have been removed. The "update frames" button can be used to have the frame layout change after altering it in the options dialog.
• Using the "get url" buttons will now also fill in the name fields with the title of the page.
  Shift, Ctrl or Alt clicking a "get url" button will now fill the attached fields with the url and title for the current tab without opening the dialog.
• The actions assigned to mouse buttons can now be customized.
• The middle and right mouse buttons will now work in the menus. They carry out the assigned action without closing the menu. They do not change the default action of the button.
• The 3DBuzz button uses "buzz_index.php" as the url now in order to use the selected frame layout.
• URL fields for the custom forums in the options dialog now have history autocomplete.
• BUG FIX: The menulist in the get URL dialog shows the correct URL and title that will be retrieved.
• BUG FIX: Autocomplete in the add item dialog has been changed so that an item is not selected by default if the url field looses focus.
• BUG FIX: Typing a non-numeric character as the server, was accepted and consequently resulted in unwanted operations.
• BUG FIX: Warnings generated in javascript console if a single character was typed in the server field in the options dialog.
• BUG FIX: If the custom menu item was selected to thus become the current item, the case of the item being converted into a menu then was not handled. Now, it resets itself.

v0.8.9.4 to v 0.8.9.5

• BUG FIX: Error loading 3DBuzz URLs when on a frameless 3DBuzz page.

v0.8.9.3 to v 0.8.9.4

• BUG FIX: The checkbox for the visibility of the "search box" is initially unchecked on opening the options dialog.
• BUG FIX: Correct prefix was not added to URLs.
• BUG FIX: RDF Sequence written when not necessary for saving the settings.

v0.8.9.0 to v 0.8.9.3

• Added double click feature to the tree list in the menu customization dialog. Double clicking an item, will bring up the "Modify Item" dialog box while double clicking in empty space, will bring up the "Add item" dialog box.
• Added parsing of entered urls to change the server to the default or detected server.
• Non-site URL's will now open in the 3DBuzz frames if 3DBuzz is loaded.
• Improved keyboard interface in the form of mnemonics (or access keys) for the options, menu customization and add item dialogs. Mnemonics can be used by pressing Alt and the letter underlined. For example, to add a new item from the menu customization dialog, press Alt+A.
• BUG FIX: Fixed custom links loading as the whole page, removing the 3DBuzz frames.
• BUG FIX: Misalignment of menu buttons under the Px-classic skin (FIX: The button text was centered).
• BUG FIX: Fixed default IRC URL to directly join the #3dbuzz room.

v0.8.5.1 to v 0.8.9.0

• The forum jump and online class menus can be customized to include user-defined urls. There is full support for adding menus, menuitems and separators.
• The IRC button was renamed and can be configured to open the java applet, access an IRC protocol or open an IRC client of choice.
• The default server used when it can't be detected automatically can also be configured.
• All "url entering" fields now feature a "Get URL" feature to make entering urls less tedious. URLs can be retrieved for the current tab or any other open tab. The feature is tied in specially to the 3DBuzz site so that if the current tab has the 3DBuzz site open in frames, the url is taken from the "main" frame.
• Changes to the install script prevent the toolbar being reregistered if it is already installed.
• BUG FIX: The menu buttons displayed an unintended border in Firefox.

v0.8.0.7 to v 0.8.5.1

• Ability to customize which custom forums are displayed in the menu.
• Ability to middle click to carry out the default action of a button - this has been designed not to work in the menus.
• The toolbar grippy is hidden when viewed in fullscreen mode.
• Ability to hide the "Options" button - frees up space.
• Ability to alt+click on the toolbar to display the options dialog.
• Removed the highlight color (was blue) for the buttons.
• Toolbar modified to work in Firefox - includes changing the searchbox from a textbox to a menulist, declaring the toolbar as an overlay for browser.xul (the interface for Firefox), adding styles to allow the view of text for the buttons in fullscreen mode (the default skin prevents this).
• BUG FIX: The toolbar caused the history list of the urlbar to display numbers (This was due to my code redefining a function used by the urlbar. The fix was to rename my function.)
• BUG FIX: The minimum and maximum width of the search box was not implemented correctly.
• BUG FIX: The border of the button would show up when the menu of a menu-type button was displayed and the mouse moved out of the bounding area.
