<h2>Selenium 0.4.0</h2>

May 20, 2005

<p style="font-weight: bold;">This release breaks backward compatibility in 3 ways:
    <ol>
        <li>The 'click' command now requires the 'AndWait' suffix in order to wait for a page to reload. The 'nowait' parameter is no longer supported.</li>
        <li>The previously undocumented 'link:' locator is now specified as 'link=the link text'</li>
        <li>The previously undocumented 'setVariable' command has been renamed to 'store', with slightly different semantics.</li>
    </ol>
</p>

<dl>
  <dt>Safari support</dt><dd>Most Selenium features now work in Safari!</dd>
  <dt>Click command doesn't wait</dt><dd>Use 'clickAndWait' to wait for a page reload</dd>
  <dt>Locator specificity</dt><dd>Can use prefixes ('id=', 'xpath=' etc) to specify exactly which locator strategy to use.</dd>
  <dt>Better XPath support</dt><dd>Works in Konqueror, and is faster on other platforms.</dd>
  <dt>Javascript parameters</dt><dd>All parameters can now take a javascript{...} syntax, constructing the parameter value from javascript.</dd>
  <dt>Handle 'AndWait' commands in popup windows</dt><dd>This bug has been fixed</dd>
  <dt>Bug fixes</dt><dd>Many broken things fixed.</dd>
</dl>
