+<p>Some known bugs are present in this release; this is the way of the world.
A few of these bugs deserve special attention:</p>
<ul>
- <li><a href="http://www.openlaszlo.org/jira/browse/LPP-4235";>With jdk 1.6
and tomcat 5.5.23, changes to build.xml deploy task necessary></a> The bug
description indicates a small change that must be made to the main build.xml
file in order to use these recent versions of tomcat and java.</li>
- <li><a href="http://www.openlaszlo.org/jira/browse/LPP-3579";> Fix debugger
in Safari</a> The dhtml debugger does not work in Safari 2 or Safari 3 or
WebKit nightly as of r24285. The bug description includes a workaround if you
are building OL from source and you need the safari debugger to work. If you do
not do the special dance described in the bug, <em>the dhtml debugger will not
work in any known version of Safari.</em></li>
- <li><a href="http://www.openlaszlo.org/jira/browse/LPP-4210";>drawview
gradients broken in Firefox</a> This is due to lack of support in the DHTML
canvas tag for opacity in gradients. Firefox is among the browsers that doesn't
accept opacity information for gradient stops. Similar effects can be achieved
with color.</li>
- <li><a
href="http://www.openlaszlo.org/jira/browse/LPP-2958";>lztest-textstyle.lzx
fails in legals</a> The foreground and background colors of text are not
handled the same in swf and in dhtml. There are minor display differences
between SWF and DHTML, because SWF uses a separate background movieclip,
whereas DHTML just uses bgcolor attribute of text. The workaround is to put an
extra view in behind the text view. This workaround will not work for
DHTML/Safari.</li>
+ <li>TODO CHECK STATUS <a
href="http://www.openlaszlo.org/jira/browse/LPP-4241";> Views clip their
contents when opacity changed in R5588 IE7 DHTML</a> This an issue with the IE7
renderer. The workaround is to not set the width/height of the container that
has alpha (so the view system can resize it to its contents) or set the
width/height to be bigger than its contents. See the <a
href="http://jira.openlaszlo.org/jira/browse/LPP-4241#action_37470";>JIRA bug
comments</a> for an example of this workaround, and <a
