I talk about the column contents. In fact on ELOG, we store password so its
more easyer to click twice on it to select them and after to copy them instead
of select from right to left the password and to try to copy them. The HMTL
link gave problem, its more hard to copy data from HTML link than an normal TXT.
A little hard to explain sorry for my mistakes and explication I'm French :o). |

| Paul Harrington | paul.harrington@oup.com | Question | All | | Re: length of fields |
The reason for the earlier question is that we are trying to use Elog to store
data in a form we'd need to store more 1500 characters in more than one field.
Is it possible to get around this problem by having more then one main text field
per record?
thanks

You need elogd.c, mxml.c and regex.c, the Makefile you can get from CVS as well

Worked like a charm. Thanks again. |

No, not at the moment. You can increase the 1500 characters by recompiling elogd, but
at some point you will hit the stack limit and elogd will crash. I plan a major
redesign with completely dynamic memory allocation, thus permitting any number of
characters on any attribute. But this will take a couple of months or so. |

I fixed this problem in revision 1.586. It will be contained in the next release. |

I fixed that in revision 1.587. Note however that you should do the formatting
of attributes better using the CSS functionality, since it gives you more
possibilities. See for example the subject of this forum, which has it's own
CSS class "subjname", which has a larger font size. You select your own class like
Format Subject = 0, subjname, subjvalue
in the configuration file. Then add the classes into the CSS file.
Now elog shows each attribute which contains a "<b>" encoded (as HTML). But if you
want to write a subject line like "For bold use <b> in HTML", then the "<b>"
triggers the HTML display, so it is not written as is, which is not what you want in
that case. Since there is no switch "Submit as HTML text" for the attributes, it is
hard for elog to "guess" if you want HTML encoded or not. |

I added a new option "Link display = ...", with which you can restrict the number of
attribues which gets a HTML link. If you put
Link display = ID, Author
then only the ID column and the colum with the Author are shown as HTML links, all
other are shown as simple text.
The new version is under CVS. This option will be included in the next release. |
