        primary keys in order to initialize the sequence table.  --ELM

        * about/contrib/list-max-key-values.sql: This simple script lists
        the maximum key values for each table in the database in order to
        determine the highest key value. Once determined you can initialize
        your sequence table with this value + 1, and consequently you can
        insure there will not be a confict, I hope.  --ELM

        * about/contrib/encrypter: This file is intended to be used if you
        are upgrading from version 2.2.5 or earlier. It was contributed by
        Preston Smith ([e-mail]) and it encrypts existing
        passwords in the patrons table.  --ELM

        admin/journals-admin.pl, admin/librarians-admin.pl,
        admin/libraries-admin.pl, admin/managers-admin.pl,
        admin/reference-admin.pl, admin/university-admin.pl: Trying to
        remove any MySQL-isms by first creating a new SQL-based function in
        mysql.pl, specifically getNewSequence. This function is
        MySQL-specific and generates a unique key value, a value for each
        primary field in the database much like Oracle's sequence function.
        This eliminates the MySQL-specific autoincrement aspect of the
        soon-to-be-created sample database files. Because of this function
        all of the various sections and login-logout functions had to call
        getNewSequence to get keys. This should lead to the way of letting
        other databases be used as backends, even the dreaded Oracle or
        $QL$erver servers. --ELM

        * cam.pl, guestbook.pl, html.pl, login-logout.pl, mylibrary.pl,
        patrons.pl: Added -expires => '-1d' to $output->header. Removed the
        domain from the cookies, and added an explicit path statement.
        Again, I am hoping this will resolve the various login/logout
        errors as well as the cookie path statements appended with
        index.pl. Much thanks goes to Chris Gray
        ([e-mail]) for specific suggestions for how to
        fix these problems. "Given enough eyes, all bugs are shallow."

        * html.pl, login-logout.pl: By adding -expires to the HTTP headers
        I *think* I will have eliminated the need to reload pages after
        creating new MyLibrary accounts due to the fact that the page might
        be in cashe. Thanks to W. Carlton Brown ([e-mail]) for
        inspiring this edit. --ELM
