02.16.05 | Two caption-related bugs

There is a small issue in SSP 1.0 involving caption attributes in your XML. If you create a caption attribute for the first image in your album, and then leave out a caption for the following images, and you have "Show Captions" set to "If Available," the caption information will 'stick' to the first image's data and not change. As a temporary workaround, set "Show Captions" to "Always" -- if your image doesn't have a caption, it will automatically display "No image caption".

The second bug comes into play if you set "Image Scaling" to false, load an image that is wider than SSP, and have a caption associated with the image. The 1.0 build of SSP draws the caption text field too wide. As a temporary solution, set "Image Scaling" to true.

Both of these issue have been fixed, and will be included in the next point release.
