Re: using data in a variable with MARC::Record

Steve, thanks for submitting this back to them. It may be worth announcing here, but the MARC::Record folks just released version 1.000. I don't know what (if any) differences there are in the API. -pate

Dan, sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you. I've been in the midst of a very hectic week. Without further ado ...

If you're planning on writing your own code for this, it would be nice to try to roll that (along with the changes needed to modularize things) into the Koha sources. -pate Kaitiaki the Koha Project > >Dan >Trustee, Pillsbury Free Library, Warner NH USA >

Koha 1.2.1
by Pat Eyler 04 Jul '02

04 Jul '02

Koha 1.2.1 is ready! After almost a month of planning, coding, testing, and tweaking we've put together a new version of Koha for your book lending pleasure. Koha 1.2.1 represents a major improvement over 1.2.0. We've spent a great deal of time working on the installer/upgrader, and using these tools are now the recommended way of installing Koha on your system. Koha 1.2.1 includes our new manual, which should help you get up and running faster. The Z39.50 sub-system has been overhauled and is now much better (and easier to install to boot!). We've also cleaned up a number of bugs that crept into the 1.2.0 release -- and begun to build up our testing procedures to reduce new bugs in future releases. Please download the latest release of Koha (and find out lots more about the project) at <http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/koha/>. We encourage you to get this new release and give it a spin. We think you'll like what you see. We plan on continuing to improve Koha, and would love to have you come along on this exciting journey.

demo of cookies based authentication
by Tonnesen Steve 04 Jul '02

I have a demo of cookies based authentication at: http://hazeltonsec-18.cmsd.bc.ca/cgi-bin/koha/shelves.pl You will need to login to access the shelves.pl script (no other scripts have been modified). I have the inactivity timeout set to 20 seconds, so you can also see how that works. You can login using one of two identities: userid: librarian password: koha userid: patron password: koha Steve.
