I think we intval() the position, effectively forcing it into an integer value. w would result in 0.
Regarding the info page, isn't that what the browser back button is for? I've been taught to never try to replicate behaviors that are available in the browser.
The only way to prevent that would be to impose a size limit on the server side and by that time, you've already uploaded the 5MB password and most of the damage is done. The hash of a 5MB string should be very quick. The bandwidth on the other hand, that's a bigger problem.
The problem with this is that if we remove the buttons, we should also remove the form and that turns this into a big change.
Debug mode was left enabled on purpose for the beta.
Install part 1: ?More information regarding support for particular versions of each database can be found in the FAQ?, "FAQ" should be a link to the FAQ.
Will be updated as soon as we get the new documentation up.
Install part 1: Line 125, Column 18 in HTML: reference to non-existent ID "fld6".
Fixed.
Install part 1: ?Administrator's username: Enter the username of the forum administrator. Usernames can be between 2 and 25 characters long.? Should precise that any unicode utf-8 character is ok.
I think that will only confuse people. In any case, they can always change the username later.
Install part 1: ?Administrator's password: Enter then re-enter the forum administrator's password. Passwords must be at least 4 characters long and are case sensitive.? same as above, and should specify the maximum length. A warning about security (choosing unique, random, difficult, password) might be useful for beginners.
There's no size limit to passwords.
Install part 1: base url : for some reason, on my setup, the auto detect always add the trailing slash (always has since the early commits of 1.3). Why not do a simple check to see if there is a trailing slash, and if so strip it?
Fixed.
install part 1: maybe the install should say something about database collate? It doesn't seem to set it up itself, so a reminder to the webmaster to set it correctly would be nice.
I considered what to do with collation and decided to not "get involved". The UTF-8 stuff is complex enough as it is for the end user.
Thanks for the report. Committed.
"You are not logged in. Please login or register" - Hyperlink login and register links.
Not sure about this one. The links are right above the text.
Remove +13 and +14 from Timezone.
As strange as it sounds, these are actually used:

Users > Groups
"The pre-defined groups Guests, Administrators and Members cannot be removed." - Should Guests be Guest?
Actually, it's the group that should be called Guests, not Guest.
First of all. Thanks for the report.
Sorry, I was unclear. I'd like the folder option + fancy - type_numerals. If you check out the fancy option, it still uses the "forum1-Test-Forum" syntax. The "forum1" should be dropped, there are easy ways to get around doing that which several other software solutions successfully employ.
I'd love to hear your suggestion for getting around this. The only solution I am aware of is storing a safe URL version (a stub) of the forum and topic titles and then doing a SQL string search for the stub in the respective tables. Not very efficient.
To make things worse, you have to deal with duplicates. You also need to keep URLs permanent, which means storing the old URL stub for forum and topic titles whenever someone changes a title.
There is:
Just updated the topic post with a link to some example extensions.
sypie: PunBB 1.3 is fully translatable. Admin as well as the install script.
I would suggest that the hook sugestion thread included a list of current hooks location.
That would be an 818 lines long list 
Something I forgot to mention is that currently, we're running the old BBCode parser. We have two new parsers that we are working on in-house. However, due to a nasty bug in the PCRE library (regex), we had to postpone the inclusion of a new parser. We will continue to work on it and get it ready for primetime.
It should be noted however, that I've made a couple of test migrations that have so far worked without a hitch.
Edit: And that includes this mess.
and windows vista haah
Vista was released on this day? Oh oh!
I just exported, zipped and uploaded revision 1400 of the 1.3 tree to the download folder. That's right, ladies and gentlemen, it's time for bug crunching! Download PunBB 1.3 Beta.
Here are a few notes of interest to all potential beta testers:
1. This is a beta (and not in the Google sense of the word), so don't expect everything to work perfectly. There are bugs. Don't replace your production server install with this just yet.
2. The documentation is a bit lacking at the moment (which in turn is a bit of an understatement :D). An overhauled version of the 1.2 documentation is in the pipeline. Included in this, among other things, is a short manual aimed at extension developers.
3. Speaking of extensions, please dig into and tinker with the extension system. We appreciate any comments, thoughts or ideas you have on the subject. In particular, we are interested in requests for new hooks. We are aware that, even though the code currently contains a great number of hooks, there is need for more.
4. Another area of interest is the greatly improved update script. In PunBB 1.3, we are aiming for full UTF-8 compatibility. In order to accommodate this, the update script now does character set conversion to make sure as much as possible of existing content can be transferred over into valid UTF-8. This process is quite complex and the number of variations of characters sets out there is more or less infinite. Please put the update script through its paces. In order to realize proper UTF-8 support, we had to bump the MySQL requirement to 4.1.2. Hopefully, this shouldn't affect too many of you.
5. As you might have realized, virtually every line of code and markup has been affected by the move to 1.3. What this means is that existing language packs are useless in 1.3. When the time comes for 1.3 final, it would be great to have a few additional languages available for download on the website. We would however appreciate if you could give us a few more days to tidy up some of the language files before you start. The new admin language file in particular, is a mess at the moment.
I think that about covers it for now. Please try to keep all discussions relating to the beta in the new 1.3 Beta talk.
Enjoy!
Edit: I've uploaded a zip file containing some simple example extensions for you to play with. Nothing fancy, but at least, you'll have something to base your own extensions on.
Did anyone say hooks? Please post your hook requests in this topic. Please try to be reasonable and to explain why you want a hook in that particular place.
But they use PunBB to power the developers forum, so it's not ALL bad
Yeah, you're right. Facebook all of a sudden got a lot better

A bit "strange".
We're considering getting rid of the footer completely.
Here I was trying to figure out the secret crypto behind the hyphen!
I have emails, phone, forums, websites, blogs, IM... I don't see what's the point of facebook. But that's just me... go nuts yourself if you like it.
Personally, I got in touch with a lot of people I hadn't met in years through Facebook, so in that respect, I like it. Granted, it's turning into a spam infested piece of shite now that there are all these "applications".
But now it doesn't.
It doesn't?
What you can do is remove the @ signs in the scripts (for example, before file_exists()). The @ supresses any warnings and notices that PHP wants to spit out. That way, you may get a better idea of what is failing.
Or try the equivalent code bits from PunBB 1.3 (tries one more thing): http://dev.punbb.org/browser/branches/p … /index.php
Hehe, I joined
I believe we're pretty close to final right now. However, there's lots of left over crap that Paul is going to clean out (hopefully today) to make it more manageable.
But don't take my word for it. The lord (Paul that is) works in mysterious ways
