Name: Legal Module 
Author: Robert Castelo
Sponsor: Code Positive [www.codepositive.com]
Drupal: 6.0.x
********************************************************************
DESCRIPTION:

A module which displays your Terms & Conditions to users who want to
register, and makes sure they accept the T&C before their registration
is accepted.

Note: No T&C will be displayed until the T&C text has been input by
the administrator.
    
Each time a new version of the T&C is created all users will be required to 
accept the new version.

Note: T&C text should only be entered by administrators or other highly trusted users.
filter_xss_admin() is used to filter content for display, this is a very permissive 
XSS/HTML filter intended for admin-only use.
