Inheriting of ACL

Working for 1.1.6.2 to 1.1.6.4 (latest)
As wished in #139, a simple way for setting ACL at creation time might be useful. The idea is to take the ACL of the page where the link leading to page creation has been clicked by the user.

As JavaWoman states on HierarchiesAndInheritance, there are five different ways of creating a new page:

  1. By creating a URL with the new page name (and optionally immediately adding the /edit handler)
  1. By using the form presented by the "newpage" action
  1. By following a "missing page" link from another page and following the "create" link from the resulting dummy page
  1. By cloning from a template page
  1. By cloning from another (non-template) page

Cases 4 & 5 have been taken care by BrianKoontz with his CloneACLs patch. Case 1 just needs to get the defaut ACL of the config file while case 2 might be more difficult to implement something elegant. I want to take care of the third case: The page creation by following a "missing page" link from another page.

As I'm not very familiar with the WikkaWiki code, some solutions might look clumsy -- I greatly appreciate if someone would take a look into the code.

What's new for v1.1.6.4? The modified extension uses the HTTP_REFERER information to determine the referring page. This means, the URLs of non-existing pages won't get ugly. Furthermore I put a checkbox in to turn inheriting ACLs off when creating a new page. It looks a lot nicer now. To do: The ACL editing block appears even when not creating a new page. I will care about this tomorrow. For previous versions I recommend to look at the revisions of this page before 2008-05-31.

I'll make it short, just posting the modified file /handlers/page/edit.php

    function isDefaultACL($acl_type, $acl) // check if ACLs are the same as default
    {
        $def_acl = $this->TrimACLs($this->GetConfigValue('default_'.$acl_type));
        if($def_acl == $this->TrimACLs($acl)) return TRUE;
        else return FALSE;
    }

into /libs/Wakka.class.php. I put it near the other functions concerning ACLs.

What I almost forgot: You might want to disable this feature, thus you can extend your wikka.config.php with this line, where 1 means on and 0 means off:
    'inherit_acl' => '1',

In fact, without this line you won't get anything different.
