Fix: I fixed some small layout stuff for IE9! If you still have display problems with ie9 - please let me know.

You can set the transitions at $twg_slide_fx_type. The big advantage of the new slideshow is that I don't need special imaes for the slideshow! So I save almost 50% of the cache!
New: Transitional effect for the ajax detail page. You can set the fade level with $image_page_fade. 1 means no fade. 0 = complete fadeOut/fadeIn, 0.5 is 50%.

New: Speed optimisations. Compared to TWG 1.7.7 e.g. the thumbnail page is ~ 20% faster than before!
New: cache folder can look like the original folder structure. On some servers long directory listings are slow. set $use_cache_with_dir=true if you like to use this!

New: Module für Joomla does now include css for litebox.
Fix: Sometimes invalid characters are in the counter files. I have added an additional check which should prevent that these are written.

Fix: The alpha function (the hover effect on the folder pages) whas changes in IE8. I changed the implementation that it works now again on all tested browsers.

1.7.6 - 29.12.2008
New: Support for transparent PNG's and GIF's. Rotation of transparent PNG's is not supported. Seems to be buggy on some gdlib versions. You should turn of rotation if you use transparent images.

New: Arabic language file. Thanks to the Zamalek Toolbar Team
Fix: For jpg's the watermark text is antialized. For png and gif this is disabled because it looks bad with transparency.
Fix: I forgot to add the ffmpeg test avi in the html folder. I added it and now th check in the info.php does work fine again.
Fix: config_sort.php in the pictures folder was forcing zu sort the first level of sub directories as well if no other config_sort.php was in this folder. Now the config_sort.php in the pictures directory is only valid for this folder. Makes it possible to sort the main dir different to the other one with one config file.
Fix: some buttons in IE where not align properly when round corners where used. Now they are fine. Check the style_ie.css if you want to adjust something manually
Fix: The xml file for the flash was always cached even when the session cache was turned off. I was possible that an outdated xml file was used then. Now the xml is only cached if the session cache is turned on.
Fix: Extract IPTC data was generating a () if no 2nd options was specified. Now the 2nd option is only added when something is found.
Fix: Height of iframes was set int the main config. But changes in custom configs where not reflected. Now the max height of iframes are set later in the inc/loadconfig.php.
Fix: Piclens plugin changed their encoding again. Now it is how it should be in my option. I removed the extra encoding that was needed before.
Fix: cound corners + private.txt in the main folder was not working properly together. Now it does.

New: Better root.txt support. Using it shows everthing like on the 1st page - thanks to Hubertus for the code
New: New skin - "round corners". Can be used for the default skin to get round corners + can be used as template if you use your own skin to get round corners. check the skin folder.

Fix: SERVER_NAME is not used anymore because it was not delivering the right value all the time. Now HTTP_HOST ist used - Thanks to Hubertus for the hint.

Fix: the jomla random module could not be installed because of the wrong xml file. Now the one for 1.5 is included again.

1.7.4.4
New: private.txt in the main folder does now work at sub folders as well. You don't have to specify a private.txt everywhere anymore. This solution is NOT recursiv for other folders. I'm working on this!
Fix: A error during cache cleanup was shown. Now it works fine again.

New: Lytebox is now integrated! It replaces the normal liteboxbecuase it support iframes (read the updated howto) and is only 40% in size!
New: Official support for Firefox 3.0 ;). Everything was working fine ;). You need Flash 9 for a fully working thumbnails flash!

1.7.3.2

Fix: When using php include the smilies where not shown when smilies are loaded by the Ajax solution.
Fix: Breadcrumb had one > too much with images in the main folder. Now it is o.k.
Fix: The recursive view dir function has now a maxumum depth limit of 10. This avoids a looup if the directory structure is linked in a loop!

TWG 1.7.2 - 18.04.2008
New: TFU 2.7.4 was integrated into this version.
Fix: root.txt was only working on windows systems because of a path issue. Now it works as expected on all systems.

TWG 1.7.1
Important: TFU 2.7.1 was integrated into this version because of a security bugfix. The problem is in TWG not as important as in the standalone version of TFU because it is properly integrated into the system but registered users that can rename files could change the file extension by faking a request.
New: TWG does now autorefresh the cache data if new images are added. TWG stores a timestamp in the cache data and only compares the timestamp of a directory.
New: Nonscrolling ajax strip does now support the left right buttons!
New: Support for piclens plugin - a rss is now generated for all existing cache images. The rss is only updates every 4 hours.
New: Better session handling. Session is now started before config is read. This makes it possilbe to e.g. pass parameters from a cms to the config of TWG
New: Updated the Joomla modules for 1.5 - see the jomla-mambo folder
New: Support for Firefox 3 beta 4. Fixed some small layout issues with the album explorer - everything else works fine ;).
New: (Update of TFU) Better workaround if session is killed by the server because of the flash.
New: support for shell_exec and exec. Some servers don't allow exec!
New: I added $enable_enhanced_debug - then you get the request string in the debug if an error happens - only turn this on if I tel you ;).
New: Search engine optimisation: Meta tags and the titel do now have the album
New: TWG does now delete the cache files of a file if you upload a file that already exists.
New: Workaround for 'Fatal error: Out of memory in fun_list.php is a server cannot detect the correct user group
New: Workaround for 'Fatal error' if image magick and ffmpeg fail on windows
Fix: Some minor debug warnings were eliminated - The do no real harm but they where not nice ;).
Fix: Mp3 DHTML mode was not working anymore (only 1st song played) if $linktowvx was false - this is completly unrelated and now it works like expected!
Fix: iframe include did not scroll properly in IE - please read the updated howto 2!
Fix: Search for tags was throwing a warning because dir tags could be empty. I now check the value and handle this properly.
Fix: Changed "Back" to "Previous" in the en language file
Fix + redesign: root.txt - I rewrote this part because it was hard to use - read the updated howto 21 about this!
Fix: The rights for the upload you could set in the backend was allowing folder operations even if you did not give them. There was a wrong check that I fixed now everywhere
Fix: gdlib string "2.0 or higher" was not recognized - I added this detection.
Fix: I have rewritten the detection of the posix_geteuid because there where several ways how this cannot be available.
Fix: Server IP was shown instead remote address when comments are entered!
Fix: I added a workaround for a php 4 bug. This was already in 1.6.

TWG version 1.7
New: TopX can now all be precached. They can be generated now in the background and are refreshed every 4 hours (can be set). The topx are then not up to date then. Should be used if the topx takes more than a few secounds to loads.
New: For frontend users it is now possible to have more than one user dir. See the user administration for instructions.
New: Selfregistration - read the howto how to use this.
New: Hard disk cache for directories and images. Set $serialize_dir_data=true; This is a very high level of caching you can enable. The directory structure including the images are serialized to the cache folder. After enabling this the files are updated in the intervall given at precache_main_top_x_interval.
New: image magic can be used to generate the thumbs and the detail images. gdlib is still needed! Because it is used for all images that ware only generated on the fly (like random, maximum images, slideshow optimized and slideshow maximum, fullscreen). Some people say image magic is much better than gd-lib. But I don't see a big difference anymore. But for big images this is very good because is has a lower memory usage and you can process bigger images then - make sure that image magic is installed properly! For the final I'll write a small howto how check this Wink.
New: Autorotation of images. I do now read the exif info of a file and rotate the image at the first generation if the camera has set it. Check the autorotate_images setting.
New: Support for ffmpeg to generate thumbnails directly from the video!
New: Generate thumbnail from videos during upload.
New: Conversion of videos to flv during upload possible.

New: info.php checks image magick + ffmpeg
New: Reimplementation of the Ajax connection usage. Now connections are reused for better performance and less connections on the server! The framework I used before was not doing this properly!
New: Check if autorotation can be done.
New: Autorotation during upload!
New: .htaccess ins hauptverziechniss, damit man keine xml und txt files von aussen listen kann!
New: subfolders only shown on 1st page!
New: The skin is automatically removed from the my_config.php and the slide.jpg images are deleted if a skin is saved.
New: French language for administration.
New: video.php not needed anymore if you like the defaults. you then have only html as mode. If you like dhtml mode you still have to use video.php. The advantage is that videos and images can be in one folder now too.
New: show_counter_in_jstree - you can now show the number of pics in the album explorer.
New: The pager line can now be configured - it has now a style + the spacer char can be set + long pager lines are optimized!
New: Support of Geocoded images - link to google maps is in the info panel
New: Optimized loading time of 1st page - cache is now not checked every session - only every $cache_time days + reding of album tree is optimized and pushed to the background - speedup the first call by 80% (My demo gallery with 3500 images loads below 2 sec. now - was 7 sec before.)
New: Caching of topxviews can now be configured for big subdirectories as well - check $precache_topx_additional_dirs
New: Now you can have a 2nd field from the iptc data you can add to the caption - check $iptc_fields_for_caption_add and $iptc_fields_for_caption_add_style
New: Support for private.txt for the main folder that restricts the whole gallery! I have also rewritten the error login page - now you don't get a text only; you get the login form right away
New: menu.htm can be used to extend the menu in the right upper corner. is language dependent menu_de.htm. This file has to be in the main folder of twg.
New: Remote image filter enhanced. Some webservers have the full path in the href - I do now strip the path and remote images work on much more servers.
New: You can shorten the breadcrumb with ... - check $hide_middle_folders_in_breadcrumb
New: overview.htm / thumb.htm / image.htm are now language dependent!
New: local thumb.htm is now possible. simply put a thumb.htm in the folder you like to display it. On the image page you can use image.txt for this purpose.
New: Topx - views can be shown like random image on an external page or included like a random image everywhere - check the updated howto 4!
New: TFU 2.7 completely integrated in TWG now - Edit of text files is available for registered users.
New: folder.png made out of topx ! Creating a folder.png on the fly! Works folderbased and recusive. External galleries are NOT supportet.
New: Clicking on the window outside the iframe closes the iframe.
New: You can now map albums if you move them - prevents dead links! check mapping.php in the main folder - usefull if you e.g. move your albums to e.g. an 2006 folder and have links somewhere you don't want to update!
New: If the available space is smaller than the space the iframe for the slideshow needs then the iframe is made smaller if not to break the layout in php include mode
New: move_error_images - Moves corrupt images to a specific folder is you specify one. you can automatically move images that throw an error to the folder your provide here! Makes it easy to find corrupt images people upload. The problem can be too big images, or corrupt images
New: Optimized TWG for large galleries - Test the gallery with 250 000 images! Problem: The Javascript tree gets so big that it takes 15 sec to render it (means 15 sec. is used by the browser itself!) - Therefor you should turn the album tree off it you have a speed problem!
New: Latest version (3.13) of the jw_flv_player is now included and fully supported.
New: Mouseover effect with folder.png - simply provide a folder2.png - this is used when you move the mouse over the folder.
New: Russian translation added.

Refactoring: All needed calls where checked if they where needed and they where optimized.
Refactoring: TWG does now track exaclty where to go if you press the up button or the breadcrumb - you land exactly at the page you came from - before you only got to the upper level independent at which page you have been before.
Refactoring: Read the file list was dupplicated 4 times - now extracted in one function
Refactoring: Create cacheimagestring : str_replace("/", "_", $twg_album); replaced ca. 20 times!
Refactoring: I merged the functions generaterandom and generatefullscreen because the differences where very small.
Refactoring: I have consolitated the use of the cachedir - this makes it now possible to store the images in the cache in md5 an not extermely long. This makes it possible to directly access the cache without encoding! I have removed $double_encode_urls for the cache because of this!
Refactoring: Better detection of corrupt xml files. Sometimes php has written bad xml files - I have improved the detection of errors and added some automatic fixes.

Fix: Only directories that have subdirs are serialized now (setting $serialize_dir_data=true) - before too many cache files where created that only had one entry and this was not really needed.
Fix: in dev13 I added "Clicking on the window outside the iframe closes the iframe" was closing too much - now it works fine ;)
Fix: Improved html to be as good as possible w3c conform - suring development of 1.7 some stuff was not correct
Fix: Added latest version of TFU 2.7 where a color bug was fixed.
Fix: Deletion of temp caches was only working once a day - not every precache_main_top_x_interval - now this works fine
Fix: using || as break in the title was shown in the slideshow - now it's shown as <br>
Fix: on funpic servers php_uname and exec is not allowed - this leaded to an error message on the info panel - I catch this error now and display a nicer message.
Fix: When using HTML_SIDE extra images where shown left and right - they are now not shown anymore.
Fix: New pager optimized for different backgrounds. Style sheet has changed a little bit ;)
Fix: FLV player had problems with IE - I added some extra variables. Now it seems to work fine.
Fix: During Upload with the Flash uploader and when autmatically generating the thumbnails not all functions where available. This is fixed now
Fix: During Upload the session was not refreshed always when needed - now it is.
Fix: Topx for external galleries does now work too ;).
Fix: Reading the language list was throwing a warning on some servers with strict security settings like on funpic.

For a update from 1.3 to 1.4 I recommend to store your config.php and your my_style.css in a save place. Delete the pictures folder from the download and replace all files in the TWG folder. Then copy the my_style.css back to the TWG directory. TWG 1.4 does include a 2nd config file called my_config.php I recommend to put your changes to the default config into this directory. This makes it easier for you if you want to migrate to any new version because cou only have to copy one file and not to merge two big config's! the config_demo folder has the two my_config.php's for the two demo galleries!

25.11.2005 v1.3c
