Client-Side Form Validation Dada Mail now includes the jQuery Validation Plugin, and uses this plugin for client-side form validation in the Dada Mail Installer, Subscription Form, Create a New List form, and the various Dada Mail Profile forms (Server-side validation is still there)

Mailing List Switcher Form Enhanced Dada Mail now includes the Select2 jQuery Plugin, and utilizes it in the Mailing List Switch Form you'll see in the upper right hand corner of the List Control Panel With this plugin, it's now easier to find the mailing list you'd like to work with, especially if you have many dozens of mailing lists running on your Dada Mail The enhancement allows you to search through the available mailing lists, rather than just simply scrolling through them

Plugin: Bounce Handler Admin Menu: Bounce Scorecard Count Shown The number of addresses on the Bounce Scorecard is now shown beside the admin menu for the Bounce Handler

More Rules! Around 15 new rules have been added to the Bounce Handler Bounce Handler rules are used to correctly sort out and understand the bounces the Bounce Handler receives

new, "dada_mail user js" file The, "dada_mail user js" file holds JavaScript for user-facing Dada Mail screens At the moment, this is most client-side form validation for various user forms, including the Subscription Form

The following new HTML can now be seen in the head of the
"list_template
tmpl"

        <script src="<!-- tmpl_var SUPPORT_FILES_URL -->/static/javascripts/jquery-1

validate
js"></script>
        <script src="<!-- tmpl_var SUPPORT_FILES_URL -->/static/javascripts/dada_mail
user
js"></script>

You may optionally add these lines to your own List Template to gain the
same client-side valiation, but this is entirely optional


Documentation on these lines will be made available, once the stable
release of v6
