[quote="Alex H"]Hi Stephan,
I have a unknown bug and need help :)!

First, please take a look to attached screenshot
On the "elog problem1.gif" and "elog problem2.gif" there aren't any problem.
The entry "Mairie STO" appears correct but when I try to edit the "Equipment" field, the list/combo shows 
improper data.
I obtain "- please select -" instead of "RT0004"
What's the problem ?
Thanks a lot.[/quote]

UP! No idea :'( ?
  1739   Wed Mar 1 19:51:05 2006 Warning Alexandre Gauthiersupernaut@underwares.orgBug reportLinux2.6.1-1622Inline images URL not working
Hello

I'm running elog on the blackdog embedded device so I can carry it around while doing my consultant work.

Whenever I try to insert an inline picture by using the
elog: /1
paths with ELCode, the link becomes "logbookname2/1" (Where logbookname is the name of my logbook) and hence, doesn't work. I recall that it worked once. The image did not display, but the URL seemed correct...

Any ideas?

EDIT: i inserted a space in the elog URL above because regardless of the code brackets, it would still get interpreted.

While playing with TOP GROUP I managed to get elog 2.6.1 1660 on Solaris 9 to coredump. Since I didn't really understand TOP GROUP I tried a URL where I had http://elog.server.com/topgroupname/logbookname. Putting that logbookname at the end caused elog to dump.

Can this be reproduced by others?
  1764   Wed Mar 8 22:33:56 2006 Warning Steve Jonessteve.jones@freescale.comBug reportAll2.6.1-1671OPTION <attribute> not working right in [ global <name>] Top Group
I've verified that when the following is part of the definition of a [logbook] OR is part of a regular [global] config:
Options Completed = Open{a}, Closed{b}
{a} Preset CompletedDate = 
{b} Preset CompletedDate = $date

. . . the intended function (when option "Open" is selected the attribute "CompletedDate" is cleared; when the option "Closed" is selected the attribute "CompletedDate" is filled with the current date)

When this same code is moved to a [global <name>] config the function no longer works (the attribute "CompletedDate" is not set).

This for me is a show stopper as using Top Group has allowed me to create and use logbooks in a way that I could not under the old way (single [global]. I have verified that the same thing happens under 2.5.9.

Strange as it mmay seem, when I attempt to remove the "New" menu item from "List Menu commands" in a logbook section, I am no longer able to Save the config file -- I am presented with a message saying "Error: Command "Save" not allowed". I have to manually edit the file, add that menu item back in, and then all is ok. This is on the system where I am using 'Top Groups', so the logbook is a part of one of the top groups.

Stefan, I have previously reported that elog crashes with a specific URL -- I have now re-created the crash running under WindowsXP Pro using the pre-packaged Windows installation that I just downloaded. I am attaching screenshots, etc. for your information but I think the source of the problem stems from using "Top Group". I hope that you are able to look into this as I have logged other issues that i believe are specifically related to the use of the Top Group feature. I am also including the .cfg that I used on my Windows box which is the same .cfg that I use in our Solaris environment.

  1841   Tue May 30 17:54:21 2006 Warning Steve Jonessteve.jones@freescale.comBug reportAll2.6.1-1681Losing field 'focus' when using Conditional Attributes
Stefan, any way to address this? It appears to only be applicable when one defines conditional Options - when javascript updates the conditional lists the input focus appears to shift to the HTML edit area. I am still running ELOG V2.6.1-1681 and this is under Windows (my test system).


With version 2.6.1 rev 1681 I believe this is when I started seeing the behavior such that when a conditional attribute value is selected the focus switches to the message entry window. It looks like when the javascript cond_submit() is called for some reason on returning focus defaults to the message window. This occurs under Windows (rev 1861) and Solaris (rev 1864). I can see in function chkform() that focus is returned for checking Required attributes, but I see nothing for conditional attributes.

Thanks
