{{tag>blog }}
~~DISCUSSION~~

The new [[http://www.asual.com/swfaddress/|SWFAddress]] has just arrived after seven months of active development, various contributions and lots of positive feedback from the community. The list of changes includes the following:

  * Refactored JavaScript implementation
  * New SWFAddress.swc AS3 component
  * New CS4 based Splash screen sample
  * New Digg API sample
  * New up() method for easier deep linking path navigation
  * New XSS protection that doesn't affect special characters
  * Support for Internet Explorer 8
  * Support for custom HTTP status messages in the SEO sample
  * Improved title handling
  * Improved unload event handling for IE
  * Updated Rails sample
  * Fixed getBaseURL() for AS3
  * Fixed Safari 2.0-2.0.3 support
  * Build-in fix for the Firefox 3/Mac OSX blinking effect
  * Additional onLoad fix for application/xml content type
  * Fixed optional options parameter for the popup method
  * Cross platform build script
  * Various optimizations


This new version is pretty stable and won't require an update soon. There two known Safari bugs ([[https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19202|19202]] and [[https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20355|20355]]) that currently affect the project and we can only hope that they will make it's way into the next major release of the browser.
