- new Help contents, contributed by KDS Sahambi
- small toolbar icons by default
- Font Face dropdown menu moved to second format toolbar to keep a compact window
- PHP and comments now hidden when located between table cells/rows/etc, ie in places where visibility would break the table layout.
- it was impossible to remove a form element from the Form dialog.
- on linux, dropping a file on the source view inserted an image or a link in the source
- default theme's icon and preview were not displayed
- it was impossible to revert to default theme
- fixed 0.90 regression from 0.81: it was impossible to launch nvu <url>
- a lot of minor bug fixes
Known problems
- in XHTML documents, Nvu
1.0PR serializes empty script (for external scripts) in the form
<script src="..." /> with no end tag. This is perfectly valid
XML,
of course, but
MSIE chokes on it. To avoid that, tweak those elements in the source view to give them a content, for exemple a whitespace char.

LINUX users:
- To view an external URL (to
browse an edited file or select one
Help menu entry) with Mozilla Application Suite, install this
executable
script in your system, for
instance in the directory where mozilla
lives. Edit the MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME environment variable in that script
to meet your system settings. Add the following lines to your prefs.js:
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.http", "/path/to/the_shell_script");
For Mozilla Firefox, adjust that variable too and change the last line of the script to
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.https", "/path/to/the_shell_script");
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.ftp", "/path/to/the_shell_script");
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.file", "/path/to/the_shell_script");exec $MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME/MozillaFirefox $url
- If you can't launch Mozilla after Nvu, it's because your version of Mozilla or Mozilla Firefox is too old. You need a build made after 22-nov-2003. Just get a recent release from Mozilla.org if you don't want to try a nightly.
