Hi all,

Version 1.7.3 of Semantic Forms has been released. In this version:

- there were further fixes for HTML-escaping of characters. which I thought
I had fixed in the last version, but I had actually made the problem
somewhat worse. The issue is that the handling of HTML-escaped characters
(like "&") has to be different for different kinds of inputs: regular
text inputs, autocompleted text inputs, radiobuttons, etc. - I didn't
realize that before. As far as I know, this escaping now works for all
inputs, though of course I could be wrong.

- support was removed for SMW's SMWSQLStore, which was the old
database-storage system in versions 1.2 and earlier. Hopefully no one uses
this store any more, but if you do, you'll have to upgrade if you want to
use the latest SF.

- support was added for binary storage in databases - it turns out that
MediaWiki has an option to store data in fields of type "varbinary", for
more efficient storage. SF's SQL queries can now handle such fields, thanks
to code from Patrick Nagel.

- there were some fixes for getting the default form for a page when using
versions of SMW older than 1.4, thanks to code from Deborah Folger.

-Yaron
