TextImage WordPress plugin 0.22 released

I have checked in version 0.22 of the TextImage plugin for WordPress. WordPress 2.7.1 shipped with a broken version of the PHP function htmlspecialchars_decode(). This function, which had obviously never been tested before the release, causes any plugin that calls htmlspecialchars_decode() in PHP 4 to fail. PHP 5 has its own implementation of htmlspecialchars_decode(), and PHP 5 users are unaffected by this bug.

TextImage 0.22 has a workaround for this bug. If running on PHP 4, TextImage 0.22 will call its own implementation of htmlspecialchars_decode(). On PHP 5, the PHP library version will be used.  

In addition, you can now specify the font directory from the configuration page.

    Should the plugin work on static pages also or only on articles?

    Thanks for the info. It worked for me on articles, but not on static pages. because of your info, I found out, I should correct my setting on “cache url”, now ist works also on static pages.

    Please could you use the alt-attribute when create the img-tag, so that it is valid xhtml-Code?

    In a first step i think its enough to use an empty alt-attribute (alt = “”), in a second step it would be fine, to implement an attribute for textimage where someone can set the description differently for each from textimage created image.
