Version 0.9.83
ChatZilla 0.9.83 fixes a few URL and linking issues, online motifs in Firefox 3, inline CTCPs causing messages to get lost and some cases which were not being wrapped correctly. The command dispatcher now calls before/after hooks consistently even when errors occur and knows which commands are activated by the mouse. Some startup checks have been adjusted to stop Firefox 3 launching Java, the topic editor is now less keen to lose changes and copied important messages now jump to the message in channel when clicking the [#channel] link.
Version 0.9.82.1
ChatZilla 0.9.82.1 fixes three regressions found in 0.9.82: the preferences window doesn't save when used from Firefox's Addons window, talking/actions don't work in DCC Chat and the userlist is often unreadable on Mac when using the dark motif. Additionally, moving the tab of a channel called '#' is now fixed. The columns in the Join Channel dialog are now resizable and double-clicking the userlist starts a private chat with the user.
Version 0.9.82
ChatZilla 0.9.82 fixes views missing from the preferences window, ensures the 'Browse' button in the preferences works in all cases, reduces infinite nickname retries to just 3 (plus user-set choices) and fixes a few cases where nicknames with spaces were sent as-is. The userlist has new images for both 'symbols' and 'non-symbols' modes, improving readability on dark userlists (which the dark motif now includes). Aria support has been updated for Firefox 3 and compatibility with Songbird is improved. Changing to an invalid nickname doesn't save until the server accepts it, 'User commands' has been added to private message view tabs and /voice and co. now accept * to apply to all users in the channel.
Version 0.9.81
ChatZilla 0.9.81 fixes /ban not working, hiding tabs no longer breaks everything on Firefox 3, /names doesn't cause duplicates in the userlist, -chat command line option works much better in XULRunner, and emoticons are more accessible to screen readers. Additionally, pressing Enter in the join channel dialog now works, IRC URL handling has improved support for international characters, and IRCX ONJOIN messages are now displayed.
Version 0.9.80
ChatZilla 0.9.80 fixes /cancel when doing a /list, some errors handling color codes near URLs, issues with nickname reclaiming while away and some incorrect messages when reconnecting. New features include a rewritten userlist, which performs better, linking of 'bug X comment Y' in addition to 'bug X', auto-away when for you're idle, display of WALLOPS and mode prefixed messages, and drag-and-drop rearranging of tabs.
Version 0.9.79
ChatZilla 0.9.79 fixes errors with the /rlist command, automatically joining channels with a "/" in them, and counting users not in the channel in the user count (e.g. ChanServ), as well as many others. New features include links to the FAQ in connection errors, inline "cancel" option when connecting, accepting motif URLs which don't end in ".css", hiding DCC file transfers and high visibility of the F6 focus change. Also important is the addition of WAI-ARIA attributes to much of the output, increasing the accessibility of ChatZilla.
Version 0.9.78.1
ChatZilla 0.9.78.1 fixes a couple of regressions in text display in the last release: formatting preferences now apply fine again, mIRC colors are displayed properly, and the URL linkifier has also been improved.
Version 0.9.78
ChatZilla 0.9.78 fixes some cosmetic bugs with the Join Channel dialog, the /oper command, text not always sending with DCC Chat and many small issues with the text munger (inline styles). In addition, the Switch Text Direction shortcut has been updated to match Firefox (again), and the tab switching shortcuts likewise now match the host application (Firefox, Mozilla). The statusbar now includes an online/offline icon, like in SeaMonkey. Finally, in Firefox versions that support it (2.0.0.2 and up), spell-checking has been added to the input box.
Version 0.9.77
ChatZilla 0.9.77 fixes a bug when toggling timestamps, anchors the scroll position better when new messages arrive, and fixes a DOM error on development versions of Firefox.
Version 0.9.76
ChatZilla 0.9.76 fixes errors with notices prior to connecting, a few JavaScript strict warnings, some infrequent leaks, and the 'You need to be an operator' error on joining. Other improvements include only showing away messages once per user (for a unique away message), adding autoscroll support for SeaMonkey, correct logging for multi-line pastes and a much improved timestamp format system (strftime).
Version 0.9.75
ChatZilla 0.9.75 fixes double password prompts for some URLs, displays server-set channel mode changes, and prevents recursive aliases from hanging. Additions include Ctrl-Enter to send lines starting with /, connection retries don't use seconds for long waits, and HTTP proxy support.
Version 0.9.74
Revision 0.9.74 fixes a small leak with plugins, stops ChatZilla locking files sent with DCC forever, hides the logging messages when the date changes, reconnects to the current server before trying the next one and allows multiple parameters to /who.
Version 0.9.73
ChatZilla 0.9.73 fixes a key conflict in Firefox's Tools menu, getBanMask now works even when the client doesn't know the user's hostname, the multi-line input opens when dragging/pasting multi-line text, and ban lists are now formatted neatly. Also added is the back-end work for supporting customizing the network list.
Version 0.9.72
ChatZilla 0.9.72 fixes channel join errors appearing on the wrong view, missing information in the DCC chat header, and adds the away options menu to the main menu, as well as supressing the quit confirmation when using the /quit command or the menu. Also, images and symbols have been added for +a (admin) and +q (founder) modes on supported servers to improve the appearance of said modes. Lastly, logging now switches to a new file when the date changes even when ChatZilla is kept open across the change.
Version 0.9.71
ChatZilla 0.9.71 fixes problems on the latest nightly Firefox builds, and adds clickable Talkback links, an ident server, auto-accept for DCC file transfers, basic support for Flock, and a completely revised menu layout. Also, preference changes are no longer lost if Mozilla or Firefox crash after the change.
