Web Sales

Fixed an issue where using a link containing an http 'get' to do things like http://www.xxx.com/online?btnCheckout would not force the user through the login process when browsing anonymously.

Added a new preference in default data/web sales exclusively for 'print at home tickets'. If this is checked, any ticket purchased online is marked printed. These ticket cannot be batch printed by the box office. If you turn on this feature because you want to do at home ticket and scan at the venue, you may wish to disable the mailing fee charged online.

Fixed an issue where, if the number of events to display in a list was set to zero, the listener would go into a loop trying to make a lot of pages with no events on them. On the upgrade, if you've got this set to zero, TM will reset it to the default of 20.

Incorporated some new TCP/IP code for the PC web listener. The code that provided the status of the listener is no longer threaded.

Misc Changes

Added a small change to the attendance scanning window. There is a checkbox on it now, that if checked, will provide a dialog whenever there is an error in a scanned ticket - such as ticket already used, ticket not for this event, etc. Previously, the system just displayed a message in the error bar. Now you can have an optional dialog.
