mxml.h and strlcpy.h are part of the elog tar ball. When untar'ed, they get copied
into a separate directory:

...
-rwxr-xr-x ritt/lke      15090 2005-05-09 13:09:54 elog-2.5.9/eloglang.japanese

-rwxr-xr-x ritt/lke        567 2005-05-09 13:09:54 mxml/strlcpy.h

I have right now no access to 3.4. Once I get it, I will address the errors
occuring there.

No undefined functions here. I guess you have an old Makefile? Just use the complete tar
package from the last version.

thanks stefan. it looks like it was right in front of my face the whole time (on
the elogd.cfg syntax page). but, somehow i missed it.

Just after submitting the last message, the following error message was displayed:

Error sending Email via "mailsend.psi.ch": malformed address: synergie-infcom>


Sombody used an invalid formed email address, like user<at>domain<dot>com, on which the SMTP server complained. I would like to note here that the email addresses registered in this forum are not published in any way, so there is no risk to get spam from that (except the normal elog notifications, which can be turned off easily).

Hello Alex and Stefan,

I know of only one way to "hide" the text of the status bar in a web browser;
use JavaScript - specifically the status method (as in the following example):

<!-- the following goes in the body of the document, perhaps in a link. -->

<!-- sample link -->
<a href="javascript://place link url here"
onMouseOver="window.status='Status Bar Text Goes Here'; return true">Link Text Here</a>

<!-- place the following script in the head of the document -->
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"><!--
window.defaultStatus="Default Status Bar Text Here";
--></script>

Of course the above only works in those browsers that support javascripting,
but it is one way to hide the actual text of links from the user.
Hopefully this helps you!

Hi Stefan,

I have found a little problem with elog. I'am using ELOG V2.5.8-6. When I'am on the logon page,
I type my Login and password and hit "submit", in the bottom of IE, we can show my password without encryption, it can be dangerous. I have made a screenshot to explain my problem better.
Could you fix it for the next release ?
Thanks a lot.
Alex

I don't have double checked .. but .. why we need to pass the sensible information in the Query String ??
Are you sure that putting it in an hidden field (and eventualli using a GET methon in the <form>-tag) can't be a solution?

Hidden means only these fields are not shown in the form, but they are added to the URL in the same way as non-hidden fields. But I got another idea: I will try to use a POST form instead of the GET form. Using the POST method, fields are attached to the request and not present in the URL. Hope this will work. When I find some time to work on it I will let you know.
