Extension talk:CreateArticle/sourcecode

Mediawiki 1.8.2 and 1.9.3 issue
I had to add a "trim" to the expression "$value=htmlspecialchars($matches[1]);" i.e. trim($value=htmlspecialchars($matches[1])); in order to make this extension work. It would always declare "type not specified".

It may be due to a change in how the function htmlspecialchars is defined in MW 1.6.9, where this extension was tested.

/* Parses tag input arguments */ function getCreateBoxOption(&$value,&$input,$name,$isNumber=false) { if(preg_match("/^\s*$name\s*=\s*(.*)/mi",$input,$matches)) { if($isNumber) { $value=intval($matches[1]); } else { $value=htmlspecialchars($matches[1]); }       } }

class Createbox { var $type,$prefix, $subpage, $width; var $preload,$editintro, $bgcolor; var $defaulttext,$buttonlabel; var $align, $br, $hidden;

function CreateBox( &$parser ) { $this->parser =& $parser; }

function render { if($this->type=='createarticle'){ return $this->getCreateForm; } else { return false; }       }

Hope this helps, Jean-Lou Dupont 18:35, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks Jean-Lou -- I had not gotten around to updating this for versions 1.8.x and 1.9.x yet. I appreciate your contribution. --Hoggwild5 19:20, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

FATAL ERROR 2

1.To get this code working under PHP 5.3.3 & MediaWiki 1.16.0, I had to change the definition of the function renderCreatebox in line 84 from Um diesen Code arbeiten unter PHP 5.3.3 & MediaWiki 1.16.0, musste ich die Definition der Funktion renderCreatebox in Zeile 84 Wechsel von function renderCreatebox($input, $params, &$parser) { to zu function renderCreatebox($input, $params, $parser) {

FATAL ERROR 3

2.With MediaWiki 1.16.0, a fatal error occurs when you try to create an article that already exists ("Fatal error: Call to a member function getNamespace on a non-object in /www/wiki/includes/Skin.php on line 376"). Mit MediaWiki 1.16.0, tritt ein schwerwiegender Fehler, wenn Sie einen Artikel, der bereits vorhanden ist ("Fatal error zu erstellen: Rufen Sie auf eine Elementfunktion GetNamespace auf einem non-object in / www / wiki / includes / Skin.php auf Linie 376 "). This can be fixed by changing line 216 from Dies kann durch Ändern Linie 216 aus behoben werden $wgTitle = Title::newFromText( wfMsgForContent( 'createarticle' ) ); to zu $wgTitle = Title::newFromText( wfMsgForContent( 'error' ) );

FATAL ERROR 5

This extension seems to work in MediaWiki 1.20.2, but, there are more "errorpage" calls that need to be converted to "showErrorPage": Line ~208: $wgOut->errorpage( 'badtitle', 'badtitletext' ) should be $wgOut->showErrorPage( 'badtitle', 'badtitletext' ) Line ~213: $wgOut->errorpage( 'badtitle', 'badtitletext' ) should be $wgOut->showErrorPage( 'badtitle', 'badtitletext' )
