Version 6.2.1

We've put out a new patch release, primarily fixing some issues for IE7 users; as always, details in the changelog. Download via main ProjectForum or CourseForum pages.

Update 11/26: in doing some cleanup, we'd inadvertently overwrote the new version of ProjectForum; this has been fixed now, so if you've already downloaded, please double check that you've got the 6.2.1 version, not the 6.2.0 version.. and if not, download it again (sorry about that!)

Changing List Styles.

If you have nested numeric lists, ProjectForum follows the default HTML approach of numbering them with decimal numbers, for each level of the list. But, you can change this if you'd like, so that nested levels are 'numbered' using a different scheme.

For example, insert the following bit of CSS into the main stylesheet of a custom theme:


div > ol { list-style-type: decimal; }
div > ol > li > ol { list-style-type: lower-alpha; }
div > ol > li > ol > li > ol { list-style-type: lower-roman; }

The first level will still appear as "1, 2, 3...", but the second level will now be "a, b, c", and the third level will use "i, ii, iii...".
