- Introduced variable $db_name (name of database)
- Introduced variable $db_prefix (prefix of tables, used to seperate Address Book tables
from other tables that might already exist in the database). Scripts modified

- Certain options stored in database rather than in config.php.
- Wrote install.php to automatically create the necessary MySQL tables.
- Fixed some small bugs in export that affected mysql dump output.
- Fixed tons of other minor bugs.
- Undocumented feature: scratchpad.php to store notes and random information
- Undocumented feature: cell.php displays other phone information (good for lists of cell phone numbers)
- Broken: "Manage Groups" not yet functional
All updates made to the script since the first functional bare-bones version (1.00) falls
under this version. This is a condensed version of all changes made and does not represent
intermediate changes which may no longer be of importance.
- Password protection added through use of Apache's .htaccess file.
- Tools buttons added.
- Export feature added. It exports to two formats: a MySQL dump file which can regenerate
the database from scratch from a shell command line; and a Eudora nickname file. The
output is displayed as preformatted text in an HTML page.
- Added birthday list, which displays upcoming birthdays up to the next x days, including
the current day, where x is set through options.php (defaults to 21).
- Wrote options.php, with only one option (see birthday list)
- Wrote search.php and added the "Go to" field on list.php. Search field temporarily removed, since it is not fully operational.
- Wrote optvars.php, which contains variables that are included in other scripts.
- Group support implemented.
- The MySQL table Groups has been changed to refer to GroupList.
- Sending a groupID variable to list.php displays the group name and entries of that group.
- The group select drop-down menu is now generated by referring to the GroupList table.
- The drop down menu works.
- Groups on address.php now link to group list. CSS updated for link color.
- Groups in save.php will display checked or not checked correctly and now saves as well.
Entries can now be put into or removed from groups on an individual basis.
- A new group can be defined by saving or adding a new entry.
- Only one address can be selected as the primary address by using a radio button rather
than with a checkbox; this also forces one address to be the primary address unless that
address is removed.
- Entry deletion made operational.
- Fixed bug where the email type did not display in address.php.
- Notes field in address.php now displays newline characters as <BR> tags.
- Variables that go into Contact now go through the addslash/striptag/trim sequence.
- "INPUT TYPE=text" fields in edit.php were changed from WIDTH=40 to SIZE=20 because WIDTH
is not standard; also, 40 is too large. It has been resized to 20 which should make
the input fields smaller in Netscape 4.x which does not allow the width CSS property
on input fields.
- Fixed a bug where the OPTIMIZE TABLE command was no longer effective on ISAM tables in
a newer install of MySQL.
- First version, called simply "The Address Book" (for lack of a better name).
