Can you post an example here? If I try a

long line, it's shown correctly. You just have to scroll right in your browser. |

I had to render the comment, because some people had comments like "PCs > W2k", where the ">" screwed up the HTML code of the page. I added some code now which checks if the comment is real HTML, and reverts back to the old behaviour if it is. The update is in CVS.

People complained about the collapsing (it's really hard to make everybody happy!!!). So the page is expanded by default. If you want the old behaviour, add an
Expand selection page = 0
into your config file |

I see the same behaviour also on this very page...
I use Mozilla 1.7.10.
Tried with Konqueror -> same problem. |
Should be fixed in the current CVS version (see this page) |

There is the option "Email format", which lets you specify what to show. Try
Email format = 27 |

Thanks very much Stefan.
Our new server has no gcc so I had to compile it on a sister machine, pending the next RPM release.
By the way, your download page needs an extra line:
cvs -d :ext:cvs@midas.psi.ch:/usr/local/cvsroot checkout mxml to have a hope of the make working.
Also, it would be nice if the "Installing and running on UNIX" section of the Administrator's Guide also had a set of "Installation from CVS" instructions.

Ah, but you are doing it so well!
Thanks again.
Best regards, Ralph. |
Re: changing the default to plain text rather than elcode, posted by Noah P on Thu Sep 8 03:37:44 2005

I, too, found that this elcode.js file was missing. However, it seems to be present on this demo site!
so, I downloaded it from this very demo site, and saved it to my system (in the root of your resources folder). This (so far) seems to have made the "ELCode" formatting mode work properly.
This is the URL I used. It seems that this file was ommitted from the latest distribution:
http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/elcode.js
Hope that helps! |

the lines are displayed as expected on the screen, but they are cut off when the browser window is printed via
the browsers print function.
This did not occur in a previous version (V2.5.6).

Your problem is related with the fact that I changed the formatting from fixed font to proportional font ("ELCode"). This gives you three options:
- Enter your elog entries in "plain" text, which brings you back to the old mode
- Change the page setup of your browser. Mozilla Firefox has File/Page Setup/Shrink to fit page and left and right margin
- Reduce the entry window via the config setting "Message width"
