Notes:
Bug #3992 ("Custom Form fails upon file upload") was reopened today following a flaw in the testing procedure used to expose this issue. The fix for this bug will be taken through our QA procedures and an alternative fix provided if necessary.
Bug #4079 ("Unquoted SQL when returning Not Found (404) Page on Oracle", reported Dec 8th by jcormack) was marked "Can not replicate". The particular issue could not be replicated, however quoting of SQL identified in the report was performed in reponse to this report.
Bug #4117 ("Support for office 2007 document mime types", reported Jan 9th by bgreen) was marked a Duplicate of Feature Request #4105 ("Missing Office MIME Types").
Bug #4142 ("Javascript API not updating web paths on link operations", reported Jan 20th by rlannan) was marked "Not a bug". The JS API functions are atomic, which provides great flexibility. Updating lookups as part of this process could also be a lengthy process and cause response timeouts.
Bug #4144 ("Insert link in WYSIWYG metadata", reported Jan 21st by apalitsyn) was marked a Duplicate of Feature Request #4100 ("Metadata WYSIWYG field doesn't print matrix links correctly").
Bug #4147 ("WYSIWYG popup windows appearing behind the main screen in Firefox", reported Jan 21st by apalitsyn) was marked "Can not replicate". This issue could not be replicated in the development environment. Furthermore, the proposed solution would prevent subsequent code from executing as expected.
Bug #4148 ("asset_contents_paint_XXX not working for shadow assets", reported Jan 21st by jcormack) was marked "Not a bug". As Shadow Assets do not have associated URLs, the appropriate lookups for Paint Layouts cannot be resolved.
