Hi
Thanks for elog - it's a brilliant piece of software. I'd looked all over for open source software to log/manage change requests before discovering elog; it's so flexible that I've been able to do everything I need with it.
However, I think that I've just discovered my first undocumented 'feature'. Attribute names containing punctuation characters (e.g. / and :) cause "Redirection limit for this URL exceeded" errors in Firefox 3.0.2 and corrupt the URL if they're used in a Quick Filter. I often use '/' in attribute names for brevity, e.g. "Old/New Versions" but hadn't used one in a Quick Filter before.

Quick answer: Don't use '/' in attribute names ;-) but I guess you were kind of afraid to get this answer.
Somehow longer answer: I tried to reproduce your problem with following configuration:
[demo]
Attributes = Author, Type, Subject, Old/New
Options Old/New = Old, New
Quick filter = Type, Old/New
But I was not successful. Everything worked fine using ELOG V2.7.5-2137. Can you please check with the above configuration and tell me exactly when the redirection problem occurs? Is it during filtering on already on creating a new entry?
