  66589   Tue Nov 10 13:20:43 2009 Question Michael Dannmeyermichael.dannmeyer@solvias.comQuestionWindows2.7.5-2130Extend fields in ELOG

I want to extend the usage of ELOG and have 2 Questions:

1. Is it possible to have Fields which only appears if another selection is done? e.g. I create a new entry. This new entry has a type field. If I chose the Type "ABC" another field appears where the departemnt could be choosen. If I select Type "DEF" the Department field does not appear.

2. I have a field Status. This is a predefined field with 3 entries (New,  under progress, closed). If i change the status field time, date old and new status should be logged or written in the text field. I can log this with the answer field with a new ID. But is there any other way to log it in the text field or log it with no new ID? 

Can i implement the wishes above? If yes how does it work?

Thanks for your help

Michael

1. is simple, just use conditional attributes like:

Attributes = Author, Type, Status, Revisions, Department
Options Type = ABD{1}, DEF{2}
Show Attributes Edit = Author, Type, Status, Revisions
{1}Show Attributes Edit = Author, Type, Status, Revisions, Department
{2}Show Attributes Edit = Author, Type, Status, Revisions

2. is more complicated. Have a look at FAQ # 11. Try something like:

Options Status = New, Under progress, Closed
Subst Revisions = $date status $status
Subst on Edit Revisions = $Revisions<br>$date status $status

But when testing this, I realized that there is a bug in elog and the subsitution is done before the submission, not after. I fixed that in SVN revision 2263, so it will be contained in the next Windows release.

Stefan, would it be possible to make the following change so that the document is not cached and at the same time it is possible to save it.

The change would entail replacing the "Pragma: no-cache" directive with an "Expires: " <HTTP-date> where <HTTP-date> is the same as Date header value. Please see section 14.21 of http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html

Hopefully there are no other side effects to this change.

ok, so I removed the "Pragma: no-cache". With IE it looks fine now, and if I repeat it two times it always gets is from elog and not from the cache due to the "Expires:" statement. The "no-cache" came from old days when some browsers did not yet support the "Expires" tag. I hope that this is better now, so let's see when we get the first complaints. The modification is in SVN revision 2265.

I upgraded 2.7.5 rev 2175 to 2.7.7 rev 2246 last Thursday. I tested it with several logbooks with no problems. However I received a rep[ort today that it was down. I discovered whenever I tried to open a logbook entitled "Equipment Reservation" in the folder "EquipmentReservations" Elog would crash. I checked the elog.log file with no entries in it other than showing when it was restarted. I backed up to 2.7.5 and had no porblems with the same logbook. I repeated the upgrade to 2.7.7 with the crash problem returning. I am now back on 2.7.5 with no problems.

 

I just decided to try 2.7.6 rev 2239 and had the same results as 2.7.7.

 

This is running under Win2K with SP4 as an automatic service on port 80.

 

I am also running Elog V2.7.4-2118 on a different port (8080) simultaneously with no problems.

 

If you wish I will send the elog.cfg file. Anything else I can do to help, please let me know.

I need to reproduce your problem. Therefore I need the configuration and the xxxxxxa.log file containing the offending entries. You can strip it down to the minimum needed to do the crash. 

 In the process of trying to reduce it to a minimum I discovered that the entry that appears to be causing the crash is this:

I have found the problem:

the fckeditor folder contains not all necessary files after installation of Elog version 2.7.7.

I have downloaded the fckeditior manually from:

http://www.fckeditor.net/.

and replaced the faulty one with the new one.

Now the editor is running fine and I see the menu bar when I choose Encoding HTML:

elogd 2.7.7 built Jul 31 2009, 13:01:20 revision 2246
FCKedit detected
Indexing logbooks ... done
Server listening on port 8080 ...

 

Stefan could you please ckeck if some files are missing in the fckeditor folder within the elog version 2.7.7 rev. 2246. 

Yepp, the editor source code is completely missing in rev. 2.7.7. Thanks for pointing that out. I will include it in 2.7.8 which I will release pretty soon.

Richard Stamper wrote:

Internet Explorer fails to display correctly some aspects of pages generated by elog when the zoom functionality is used (Ctrl + and Ctrl -).  This is really a bug in the IE renderer rather than elog, but since IE can be persuaded to do better relatively easily it might be worth making some minor changes to make elog more robust when used with the buggy Microsoft browser.

The problem I encountered was initially with the multiple checkboxes for an Moptions attribute, but I noticed later it also affects the logbook tabs at the top of the screen.  If you start creating a submission to this forum in IE (7 or earlier, at least) you can see the problem; when zooming, the text labels and  the checkboxes do not scale together so start overlapping, and the same happens with the logbook tabs and the text links on them.  The problem is apparently to do with a proprietary IE concept called "layout" - see http://www.satzansatz.de/cssd/onhavinglayout.html for details - and IE struggles when some elements do not have the hasLayout property set to "true".

The fix is to coerce elements to have the hasLayout element set to "true" by giving them some benign CSS property.  The best I can find is to set "display: inline-block" for some of the key elements, and this can be done by modifying default.css rather than the elogd.c code.

Adding

span {
  display: inline-block;
}

to default.css (e.g. just after the default style definition for the "td" element) and adding

  display: inline-block;

to the style sets for the .sltab and .ltab classes (generic, not those specific to the "a" element) seems to prevent IE doing bad things with the display when zooming without messing up the display in Firefox.  I have not tested this comprehensively or in any other browsers, but I thought it might be worth passing on.

Cheers,

Richard Stamper

I just tried with IE8 (don't have IE7 installed any more), and it looked to me like this has been fixed there. So this will get less a problem in the future. If people are stuck to IE7, they can made your modification themselves in the CSS file, so I guess I won't change the distribution for the moment.
