+- [[PeterThoeny]] - 01 Jun 2001: New `%URLPARAM{"name"}%` variable to query URL parameters. More in [[TWikiVariables]].
- [[PeterThoeny]] - 27 Mar 2001: The table syntax has been enhanced to (i) render <code>**| \*bold\* |**</code> cells as table headers, (ii) render space padded cells <code>**| center aligned |**</code> and <code>**| right aligned |**</code>, (iii) span multiple columns using <code>**| empty cells |||**</code>. More in [[TextFormattingRules]].
- [[PeterThoeny]] - 25 Mar 2001: Security fix: Questionable files like PHP scripts (executables) and <code>**.htaccess**</code> files that are attached to a topic get a <code>**.txt**</code> suffix appended to the file name.

- Wiki is far from real time. Folk have time to think, often days or weeks, before they follow up some wiki page. So what people write is well-considered.
