Hey everyone! I've just uploaded stripShow 1.6.1, which has a couple of bug fixes:

• Fixed bug where initialization of storylines may take a while if timezone is not set under PHP 5.
• Rewrote transcript code to be more tolerant of whitespace. In addition, equals sign is no longer required for non-character transcript tags.

If your transcripts were all messed up because of whitespace, this is the fix.

I'm pleased to announce the release of version 1.6 of stripShow... this is mainly a bug-fix release, with only a couple of new features.

• Improved XHTML 1.0 Strict compatiblity
• Fixed bug where comment link was not shown on index page
• Fixed bug where same blog entries were shown on every page when linked from index page
• Current comic now has alt text encoded as HTML entities for validation
• Overhauled storyline code to only do one MySQL query and to speed up operations. Previously, things got seriously bogged down the more stories and strips you had in your archive.
