                             Version 1.4.2
                             Release Notes
  
  INTRODUCTION:
  ============
  
  This document contains the release notes for this version of the Jakarta
  ECS package, and highlights changes since the previous version. This is a 
  maintenance release aimed at existing users who required a released version
  containing all the fixes made since the last release.
  
  NEW FEATURES:
  ============
  General
  -------
  * Changed scope of createStartTag and createEndTag so they can be called 
    externally from other packages.
  * New examples of ecs-in-use to src/java/org/apache/ecs/examples.
  * Also documentation enhancements.
  
  ConcreteElement
  ---------------
  * Added overloaded method to ConcreteElement.output
  * added isEmpty() method and lineSeparator stuff
  
  Doctype
  -------
  * Added Doctype support for DTD HTML 4.01
  
  ECSDefaults
  -----------
  * The property file can now be overridden by setting the
    ecs.properties property.
  
  XhtmlFrameSetDocument
  ---------------------
  * Adding missing get/setDoctype()
  
  Input
  -----
  * Added more constuctors
  
  Option
  ------
  * Added methods to make things a little easier with options and selects.
  * Make option default to having a closing tag
  
  Select
  ------
  * Added methods to make things a little easier with options and selects.
  * Added appendOption methods
  
  org.apache.ecs.wml.P
  --------------------

  DEPRECATED
  ==========
  
  CHANGES:
  ========
  
  ElementAttributes
  -----------------
  * Change the way keyword/value pair is delimited with quotes.
  
  BUG REPORTS ADDRESSED:
  =====================
  
  ConcreteElement
  ---------------
  * Changed output so that the current element encoding type is used when the element \
  is outputted to an OutputStream.
  * Fixed potential problem with PrintWriter not flushing. 
  * Fixed end of line handling while pretty printing, so that
  it is correctly uses the line.separator system property to determine end of
  line, instead of using a hard coded '\n'.
  
  Document
  --------
  * There are some errors in the code of this class. They are the same kind of errors \
that I found in  org.apache.ecs.Document. The problem is mainly in the setXXX methods \
(setBody for example), which forgets to  update the local reference AND the reference \
                in the Hashtable.
  * Fixed NPE on null doctype
  
  ElementAttributes
  -----------------
  * Fixed bug when addAttribute is used with an int, Integer or Object as an \
attribute value.  
  FrameSetDocument
  ----------------
  * Fixed some errors in the code of this class. The problem was mainly in the setXXX \
methods  (setBody for example), which forgets to update the local reference AND the \
reference   in the Hashtable. 
  
  GenericElement
  --------------
  * International character set bug fix
  
  DOMFactory
  ----------
  * Change DOMFactory so that it doesn't use Piped*Streams to prevent potential \
deadlocks.  
  Script
  ------
  * Changed script so that the body is not outputted when the src attribute is set.
