Drupal 6 Released - AHAH Forms
Posted: Wed 02/13/2008 by ramiroDrupal 6 was released today. One of the most exciting new features to me — I only recently learned about — is that the AHAH (Asychronous HTML and HTTP) framework made it into the Drupal core. This means you can create asychronous HTTP request, commonly referred to as AJAX, without writing a single line of JavaScript code.
The new Forms API comes with an #ahah attribute that lets you specify the trigger event, e.g. a mouse click, the callback URL that will be requested after the event occurred and the ID value of the HTML element where the server response will be displayed. Pretty awesome stuff.
To learn more about other cool new features, such as I18N, drag-and-drop administration, OpenID support, performance optimizations, jQuery version 1.2.3, etc. go read the official release announcement, download Drupal 6, install it and build your own Web application.
Hope that new theming features and new jQuery will bring lot of new, modern and shiny drupal themes to drupal community.
Are you sure that Page title and Related Links are not developed any more?
Apart from that, it really pisses me off when people blame other people who take part in an open source projects for not doing their voluntary work in the time frame impatient users expect.
I don't think it makes any sense to simply state that one system is better or worse than the other.
