Contains a modified version of PHP WoW Item Mouseover by rodeojones which I modified to make work with my installation of MediaWiki

Known Issues

 * Some items are not listed on WoWArmory.com. I'm working on a way to check WoWArmory.com and Allakhazam.com (shouldn't be too hard).
 * My bad, just needed to wrap the item name in urlencode.


 * Due to the way MediaWiki stores data returned by a hook, you may have to resave pages that have &lt;item not found&gt; in them.
 * Only a problem if:


 * 1) you used my botched Version 6.1 and saved a page with an item link in it.
 * 2) new items were added to WoW and not yet in Allakhazam's database and you tried to link to them
 * 3) you managed to make it work with a different website other than Allakhazam
 * Version 6.1 does not work.
 * Reverted to Version 6


 * The script probes Allakhazam.com or WoWArmory.com twice if it sees an item with " of " in the name only if it doesn't find it the first time. E.g. "Corpse Harvester of Power": will probe [the site] twice to find "Corpse Harvester". "Helm of Desolation": will only probe once, since that item is found on the first pass.
 * Due to the way World of Warcraft handles items, it is not possible to link to items with sub names such as, "Corpse Harvester of the Bear". Attempting to link to such items will result in "&lt;item not found&gt;Corpse Harvester of the Bear&lt;/item not found&gt;". I'm working on a way to make the script ignore sub names.
 * Fixed (ugly)


 * Seems to break custom style sheets. I'm working on a fix.
 * Fixed
