Contemplate Flattener
1.0b

If you flatten a password-protected site, the PHP and ASP versions of the
Flattener will succeed because they can capture your authentication information
and carry it through to their internal assembly process. However, this functionality
is currently not available in the Perl version, so flattening a password-protected
site with flattener.cgi will fail with file permissions errors.

The alignment of the items on the main Flattener menu is improved.
The get_setting function now contains an extra line to ensure that Contemplate will evaluate a setting of "0" in the preferences file as false in every language. The ASP version was evaluating "0" as true, resulting in some preference settings not taking effect.

You no longer need to specify the directory location of your page definitions
file if you store it in the contemplate directory. For example, your setting
for "read page definitions from" in preferences.ini might be simply
"pages.txt." You can still store your definitions file elsewhere
by using a setting like "../other/pages.txt."
If you're using Apache's mod_rewrite or other software to rewrite dynamic URLs, you no longer need to use "assembled" as the string that triggers the rewrite. If you wish to use a different string, you can open each of the server-side scripts included with your version of Contemplate, look for the $URL_rewriting_flag variable definition, and change it in the script. (This setting is not available in the preferences file because the scripts need it in order to read the preferences file.)
