Adaption and improvement of the Free Web File Manager aka GSFileManager (http://freewebfilemanager.com/)
Parts of the original code are not good or not suitable for us. Here follows an incomplete list of our enhancements.
- Data sent to server is now optimal encoded. Before, it was two times URL-encoded plus one time with HTML entities.
- Code style is getting better. We begin to apply the Google JavaScript and HTML/CSS Style Guides and for PHP an adopted PEAR Coding Standard.
- Better use of jQuery i.e. discarding the use of deprecated/removed features and changing poor use of jQuery (e.g.
.html()vs..text()). - PHP's low-level file system functions seem to need CP1252 (under Windows), therefore conversion added.
- Server now responses with JSON instead of JavaScript.
- Refactoring, e.g. extracting functions, renaming variables, splitting modules.
- German localization added.
- Typos fixed.
