[HTML_Progress] New major version coming soon

Hello all, After days of working i'm proud to announce a new major version for HTML_Progress. If you don't know what make this package, have a look here : http://pear.php.net/package/HTML_Progress and also on my server project page http://pear.laurent-laville.org/HTML/Progress/ Current version is 0.6.2, and soon you'll have a fresh 1.0 version I was happy to produce a such package in past, but some details make me sad. I wanted this package to be better and with some news features i haven't time to put in previous version. All API have changed and there are no compatibility with 0.6.2 sorry (but you'll understand why) So here are the changes since 0.6.2: - back to compatibility with PHP 4.2.x (minimal) - HTML_Page package is no more necessary to produce pages with ProgressBar. You are free to put a progress in all your existing pages (templates) as any other HTML element. - HTML_CSS package becomes optional and is required only for facility to produce Progress StyleSheet. - CSS id and class selectors are customizable. - ProgressMaker got some pre-sets UI models as example. - Errors are managed by Error_Raise package (by Greg Beaver). Hope it'll become a standard Have a look here : http://www.chiaraquartet.net/apidoc/ and see nice work of Greg ! - added PHPunit tests with same skin (coolest HTML output) as used in CVS for package : HTML_CSS, PEAR_PackageFileManager Now the feature additions: - HTML_Progress now implements a Observer design pattern. It is possible to add Listeners. - HTML_Progress now adds a customizable UI monitor pattern to display a progress bar. User-end can abort progress at any time. use optionals package HTML_QuickForm and HTML_QuickForm_Controller - Look and feel can be sets by internal API or an external config file. use optional Config package http://pear.php.net/package/Config of Bertrand Mansion - Allows many progress bar on same page without uses of iframe solution. Even if it's optional, it's recommend to install also HTML_CSS package http://pear.php.net/package/HTML_CSS of Klaus Guenther. I used his package HTML_Page only for ProgressMaker and in a single example script. ToDo List : - Lot of test on different platform with many browsers - Make a cool tutorial included with API docs (same as in Error_Raise package by Greg) Without guaranty that working with your own config, you can have a look on new examples here : http://pear.laurent-laville.org/dev/examples/ (the link will change as soon as i'll publish a public and final release) I'll produce a PEAR ready to install package this evening : a 1.0RC1 in beta stage and i'll put it on my website at : http://pear.laurent-laville.org/HTML/Progress/ BUT REMEMBER, i need to make again some tests before a public release, and also write a cool tutorial to explains all new API. Laurent Laville Hope you'll enjoy my work.
