Basically all the Database functions are in lib/datalib.php
and the web functions are all in lib/weblib.php, so
moodlelib.php is much thinner than it was.
Data functions have been extended ... most old calls will
still work, but now many more SQL commands can be performed
using the datalib functions rather than using SQL. I'm
currently moving through the whole tree replacing SQL
calls or at least concentrating them in one section of
mod/xxx/lib.php
Still working on forums, quizzes, surveys, resources.
The tree is currently not full working ... some things are
half-completed ... will resume tomorrow.
up smileys etc if the text has been edited at any stage using the
richtext editor.
I realise it's possible for students to really mess up forums display
etc if they wanted to include a huge picture ... I'm not sure if there
are any cross-site scripting attacks possible with images in there.
But there is also now the HTML format for most things, which is editable
using an ordinary form, so this problem is currently already exposed.
I think it's OK as long as can find a filter to strip all javascript
out of ANY format text in Moodle.
THIS IS A BIG CHANGE!
I've renamed the "reading" module to "resource".
This meant changing quite a few references throughout Moodle.
The automatic upgrade process should work OK (it worked OK on my
development server) and there shouldn't be any problems.
BUT PLEASE PROCEED WITH CAUTION AND KEEP BACKUPS OF EVERYTHING
UNTIL I HAVE A FEW MORE TESTS! If you upgrade please let me know.
One thing that will break are any hard-coded links within forum messages.
What I will be doing to fix this on my apache server is to add this to
httpd.conf:
Redirect /mod/reading/ http://moodle.com/mod/resource/
Sorry about any inconvenience, but it's better this is done sooner than later.
