This entry was published at least two years ago (originally posted on February 13, 2003). Since that time the information may have become outdated or my beliefs may have changed (in general, assume a more open and liberal current viewpoint). A fuller disclaimer is available.
Two important (in my world) software upgrades hit the ‘net today: Mac OS X was upgraded to version 10.2.4, and MovableType was upgraded to version 2.6. Both are installed, and both are working like a charm.
This is complete geek-speak, but my favorite change in MT v2.6:
MT::Util::html_text_transform (the default “convert line breaks” code) will no longer add
<p>tags around paragraphs that start with certain HTML tags (pre,table,ol,ul,pre,select,form, andblockquote). (Phil Ringnalda)
Since I use <blockquote> a lot when I’m posting links to other sites, this will save me some headaches.
