The problem had to do with the integration of native SSL into elog/elogd. I tried to fix it in revision 2099. Please give it a try. I have not tried yet the SSL mode, but I changed the -s for "subdir" to -d not to collide with SSL.

Sorry, I overlooked your first question.

Sticky entries are not directly supported, but you can get the same (maybe even better) using following scheme:

- Use an attribute, like the "Type" in the example logbook, and add an option "Sticky"

- Use "quick filter = type". This shows up a filter box on the listing at the top right. If you select "Sticky" there, a listing with all sticky entries will show up.

- Use a different style for such an entry with "Style Type Sticky = background-color:red". This makes all sticky entries show up with a red background.

You can separate them with a semicolon. Just like:

Style Category Info = background-color:lightblue;font-weight:bold

Note that you cannot change the font color, since it is a link, and that is defined in the default.css file under

/* standard link colors and decorations */
a:link { color:#0000FF; text-decoration:none }
a:visited { color:#800080; text-decoration:none }
a:hover { color:#0000FF; text-decoration:underline }
a:active { color:#0000FF; text-decoration:underline }
a:focus { color:#0000FF; text-decoration:underline }

Options Category = .... , Shift {1} , ....
{1} Options Subject = Shift start {a}, Shift end {b}, ....

{1&a} Preset text = shift_checklist.txt
{1&b} Preset text = shift_summary.txt

[global]
port = 8000
password file = passwd
Options Category = Other , Shift {1} , Routine
Attributes = Author, Category, Subject
{1} Options Subject = Shift start {a}, Shift end {b}
{1&a} Preset text = shift_checklist.txt
{1&b} Preset text = shift_summary.txt

The problematic part is the "\" in the filename, which is not correctly recognized as a directory. I will fix this in the next release. For now, just click on the Browse button, navigate to d:\, and then select there the file aaa.doc.

What you can do is to define an attribute (let's call it 'link'), then substitute this (maybe empty) attribute after submit with

Subst link = http://www.google.com

so this attribute will contain this link. You can also combine the value of the attribute with the link, like

Subst link = http://www.google.com/search?q=$link

this will produce a link to google search where it searches for the value of the attribute:
