Upgrade Release
Added alternate (ie. foreign) language support, improved file locking and a database diagnostic function. Includes minor bug fixes, display tweaking and additional error trapping. Although no critical errors have been found, it is recommended that users of earlier versions upgrade. This version should eliminate PHP "warning" messages, especially on heavy traffic sites. All data files remain unchanged, so existing guestbooks will remain intact. When upgrading from a previous version, only the following files need to be replaced: admin.php, database_functions.php, display_template.php, documentation.html, index.php, input_template.php and language.conf (new file, should be chmod'ed to 777). Requires PHP version 4.0.1 or greater. Alternate language files will be available for download from the main HyperBook page.

| v.1.02 |
Maintenance Release
Further testing added to "script execution time," also changed method for determining "max_execution_time" to take advantage of PHP4's ability to read actual INI info rather than the INI file setting (setting may have been changed in an .htaccess file). Also added additional checking for uninitialized values to prevent warning messages.

Minor bug fix: Skips display of "script execution time" if system doesn't return gettimeofday() system call. Prevents error from being generated when the missing elapsed time was being rounded off.
