  1. 8.13RELEASE NOTES

  2. Previous release • Release 28th July 2008 Latest release • 12 betas • 68 tickets

  3. Edit text file in the file library • Available for all text files. CSV, CSS, TXT, JS, XSL, HTML and XML • Editing file pop up in text editor • Saved files go in as a new version and become the ‘live’ version

  4. RSS changes • Support for filtering by multiple categorisation in the address bar e.g. http://test.sitekit.net/RSS.aspx?ID=582&category=dull&category=stupid can be used in data islands and XML consumer pages • Support for limiting RSS feeds by quantity • e.g. http://test.sitekit.net/RSS.aspx?ID=582&qty=8 returns 8 most recent articles • Examples on http://test.sitekit.net/RSS812.htm

  5. SOAP support in data islands • There are 3 protocols by which data can be accessed from a web service. GET, POST and SOAP. The Sitekit data-islands have always supported the retrieval of XML data from web services by the first 2 and support SOAP • The SOAP supports complex object encapsulation being passed in as argument however our version only support simpler ‘single tier’ objects. strings, integers, Booleans • More complex SOAP interaction is possible only via intermediary web service • SOAP calls from a data island require a further arguments representing the namespace (normally found at the top of the relevant asmx file) <xmlconsumer> <xmlsource url="http://www.url.net/source.xml" [method="POST"] [cacheInMin="1000"] [skparamsreqd=”sitekit_siteid,sitekit_editorialid”] [namespace="http://tempuri.org/HIEWebservices/Directory"] ></xmlsource> <xslsource url="http://clients.gael.net/source.xsl" [cacheInMin="36000"] [exslt="true"]></xslsource> </xmlconsumer> Documented in the website API http://help.sitekit.net/Sitekit-SDK/1_Sitekit-website-API-v21.pdf

  6. Embedded ‘if’ statements (1) • Basic logic can now be embedded in templates and pages. Examples would be comparisons with Sitekit Variables as shown below. • <sitekit:if op1="operand-value" operator="operator-value" op2="operand-value">...any HTML markup or sitekit placeholders can go here...</sitekit:if> • operand-values can be : any of the Sitekit magic words, any text string or a http request (see next slide).operator-values can be : = or == (equals); <>, !=, !== (not equal); in (op2 contains op1); not in (op2 does not contain op1)

  7. Embedded ‘if’ statements (2) An extension to Sitekit 'IF' statements is the ability to make a HTTP Request within the operand of an IF statement. This allows custom web-services to be used to control display of elements within a page. operand-value syntax : "get(url)". <sitekit:if op1="Access Denied" operator="not in" op2="get(http://test.sitekit.net/serversidepage.aspx?page=:::promokeyword:::)"><p>This text will be shown only if the aspx page does not return 'Access Denied' in its output.</p> </sitekit:if> Overall the intention is to reduce the number of required templates. Example page: http://test.sitekit.net/conditionals.htm KB article http://help.sitekit.net/kbarticle.html.KB_ID-873

  8. Publisher edition changes Publisher can now publish without coming back to the publisher tab (just like non publisher edition)

  9. Items removed or changed • News ticker<newsticker> - removed as it wasn’t cross browser compliant • Form styling – global find and replace run on all sitekit themes replacing ‘.formGeneral’ with ‘.formGeneral.formCheckboxGroup,.formCountryDropdown,.formAttach, .formBreakButton’
