A while ago the new version of the links module was released. Due to time constraints, i was not able to do this blogpost sooner though... Anyhow... let me tell you about the new features in version 4.

First and foremost, this new version is about XHTML compliancy. There were a few remaining "nowrap" attributes in the rendered html, which have been replaced by style="white-space:nowrap". Furthermore the itemtemplate of the datalist was enhanced to include a reference to a css class named "LinksDesignTable", which allows you to specifically target the contents of the datalist items, such as:

.LinksDesignTable .Normal{
color:#F00;
}

Other than that a lot of bugs were fixed, please check the change log in gemini.

ps: Special thanks goes to Timo Breumelhof for helping me fix layout issues with this module.

pps: of course... the first issue is already found: a typo in the compatibleversions regex in the dnn file causes version 04.00.00 not to install in DNN 4.7.0 and 4.8.0.  A package has just been submitted to the release tracker, for more info on this issue please check gemini.

Re: Links Module 04.00.00 released

We recently upgraded to the latest announcement module 4.0.0.1 . Since the upgrade, I have noticed that there is a lot of whitespace between the modules. Since I cannot attach a screenshot I am copying the undelying html to show you what I mean. An I doing something wrong

Re: Links Module 04.00.00 released

i am not sure why you are commenting on a blog post about the links module. Also, please ask your questions in the forums, not in blog comments
