¶ 1 Leave a comment on paragraph 1 0 Last week was our first official beta test. Most of the feedback was related to the front-end, but the back-end did get some criticism for the XML validation script. Going in, I already knew that it wasn’t going to be adequate for real TEI validation. And that’s exactly what the beta testers wanted.
¶ 2 Leave a comment on paragraph 2 0 Creating my validation script was easy enough, but adding in TEI is probably not something I can do in just a couple of weeks. With some input from others a few weeks ago, I was pointed in the direction of a few already existent JavaScript modules for XML validation that could be coupled with a TEI schema. My goal for the next few weeks will be getting that to work. I’m pretty confident that I can get it done, but if I can’t, my original script is there to fall back on.

I’ve implemented the password change feature and started the work of adding an email validation module that will validate email addresses upon registering. I added a field to the users database table and set up the proper redirects for a non-valid user. Next is actually creating the email and testing that out on new users.
