I've set up my ELOG configuration to display one summary line in the list view. However, a word from the next line creeps in from time to time. You can see this in my logbook - look at the 'Text' column for entries 805, 802 and 800 for instance. The word 'Shift' is from the second line of the entry, but it has been added to the summary text for some reason. Any ideas how I can fix this?

 

 Your problem comes from the fact that you probably did not enter the HTML text body with the build-in editor, but copy-and-pasted it from somewhere else. ELOG determines the end of a line by looking at the line-feed character (\n), and your HTML text does sometimes not contain this character at the end, but only the HTML paragraph tag (</p>). I added some code in SVN revision 2131 to look also for the HTML tags properly, so if you upgrade to that version, it should be fine for you.
