{1}Email encoding = 1
{2}Email encoding = 2

then the email encoding changes from plain to HTML depending on the conditional attribute Email Type. Maybe you misunderstood the concept of conditional attributes. In the above config the attribute Email Type determines the condition {1} or {2}, which leads then to different values of the email encoding. But it's important to have the line
Options Email Type = plain{1}, html{2}

in order to set a condition.


I use conditional attributes to select the fields I would like displayed on a form or page.
I understand how they work but wish to set the Email Encoding automatically depending on which item they choose from a drop down list (ie. which form they are using)

For example, if they choose 'Fred Bloggs' from the conditional drop down attribute 'Name' it will set the page so that only 'Fred Bloggs' required attributes are viewable. I wish to send this page in Plain text when submitted.

If 'Fred Jones' is chosen then only attributes applicable to 'Fred Jones' are shown. When he submits his entry then I need the email to be sent in HTML.

The email encoding option would have to be set under either Fred Bloggs{1} or Fred Jones{2} conditions.

Attributes = Name,

Options Name = Fred Bloggs{1}, Fred Jones{2}

{1}Email encoding = 1
{1}Email All = sed@frd.fg
{2}Email encoding = 2
{2}Email All = sdf@fgd.hg

I can get options like 'Email All = sed@frd.fg' to change to another email address when used as above but not Email formatting.

I have all the other conditional attributes working fine otherwise but would really like to be able to add this option.

Thanks for your help.

Can you please try the above configuration example, and can you please tell me exactly which version of elog you are using? If I try that example with ELOG V2.6.2-1714, it works fine (it DOES change the email encoding).

My version shows V2.6.2-1699.
I noticed you have 1714, is that the latest binary or your compiled CVS release?

Thx

I appreciate your posting of the JavaScript. However, I have no idea what
to do with it. The page appears to be generated by some elog daemon. I do
not know how to hook into that.

eLog allows one to add custom headers or footers as well as include Cascading Style Sheets. I believe there is a post somewhere in here from Stefan indicating that javascript can be added through one of these methods . . . hold on, a simple search, yes Stefan mentions it at http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/1837

Hi,
after a long time, I thought I could try to investigate the code some further,
and maybe I found some hint.
The page where I expected the options to show was (probably) the one generated by this function:

void show_admin_page(LOGBOOK * lbs, char *top_group)

Inside, it, the buttons are generated by following code snippets:

(elogd.c:10443)
if (is_admin_user_global(getparam("unm"))) {
   sprintf(str, loc("Change %s"), "[global]");
   rsprintf("<input type=submit name=cmd value=\"%s\">\n", str);
}
(elogd.c:10461)
  if (is_admin_user("global", getparam("unm"))) {
     rsprintf("<input type=submit name=cmd value=\"%s\">\n", loc("Delete this logbook"));
     rsprintf("<input type=submit name=cmd value=\"%s\">\n", loc("Rename this logbook"));
     rsprintf("<input type=submit name=cmd value=\"%s\">\n", loc("Create new logbook"));
}

The functions called to validate the user are following:

(elogd.c:21298)
BOOL is_admin_user(char *logbook, char *user):
//...
   if (user == NULL)
      return FALSE;

(elogd.c:21324)

BOOL is_admin_user_global(char *user)
{
//...
   if (user == NULL)
      return FALSE;

Since I assume that I'm probably in the "userless" case (no users are defined in the configuration,
and no usernames are set when launching elog either), I would understand that this causes the options for
global config editing etc etc not to be shown on the admin page.

In my opinion (and given that my interpretation of the code flow isn't wrong), the "null"
user should be indeed considered admin, at least as long as no user management is defined whatsoever.
(If I got it right, if user==NULL, but a password file exists, user management is applied,
thus we're in the case of anonymous user which is correctly not admin).

Again, I might be wrong, but I would be curious to hear an opinion from you about this issue.
Thanks again for your attention.
