but can it be done by javascript injection? load a custom .js or .html file, in this file run javascript code to root down the DOM tree until you 
find the right place, replace .innerHTML with current date?

K.O.

This was given to me by Andreas L, 

In my elog.cfg file, I have the following:

Preset text = $shell(date '+[%d %b %y]')\n

and this puts at the top of every new thread I make today the following line

[09 Apr 24]

And for the same result for every reply as well, I have in elog.cfg

Prepend on reply = $shell(date '+[%d %b %y]')\n\n----------\n

with the ten dash characters to show the end of the thread, so the reply entry goes above the dashes.

Obviously time, name of day etc can be included by using the strftime

It would be very cool to be able to select Full from the view menu and then scroll rapidly through all entries looking for that high res photo of a SQUID chip I took two months ago. Presently the photos are all full size so the Full view is slow to load and it takes a lot of scrolling to navigate. Can you implement thumbnails in Full view, and also in the single entry view? Clicking on the thumbnail should, of course, open the full size image.

For now, I'm just using the wysiwyg html entry format and dropping images into the entry, then right-clicking to set a small image size. Clicking on the image gives me a new window with the full size image, which works great.

I hope you don't mind the barrage of suggestions, and thanks again.

Thumbnail display in "full view" is implemented already. Let's take this entry: I insert a picture and scale it down via the "smaller" button:

Now if you display this forum in full view, the image is still shown as a thumbnail, which you are able to click in order to get the full resolution display. I don't know what is different in your case, maybe you are using an oder version of ELOG?

 Sorry for the delayed reply.

Ideally I'd like a config setting so that by default all graphics are presented at a fixed thumbnail size, so the users don't have to edit the image size every time they add one. Clicking on the thumbnail would open the image full size.

This would by default streamline loading and scanning through pages with many large images, whether in Full view of an entire logbook, or when viewing individual entries.

Have you tried Thumbnail size = xxx in your config file?

As an example, I created this same entry in the demo logbook using Safari.  As you can see there, the message is wrapped at the width that I set the text entry box.

No, '.txt' would definitely not be enough for me. I'm using elog to log all
administration of our network. In many cases, I simply attach a configuration
file. All those files are plain ASCII and none of them end in '.txt' - and I
would most definitely like them to be displayed inline like they are now. In
fact, this change was the main reason for me to upgrade to 2.5.4

Maybe a configuration option or a "display attachment" button would be the
best solution, then?

Cheerio,
