Stefan,

I finally got it installed on a server at work (only took a year to work through all the red tape). I have seven logbooks up and running and only one is giving me trouble. It is an On-Line Help book where I wanted to store documents that could be referenced by our staff. It is the simplest of my logbooks (see config file below) but when I hit the "Submit" button it crashes the program. I can not see the error myself but the server guys are telling me that that we are getting an "Internal error, no valid header!" error. The only other thing that I can think to mention is that the entry that is crashing the program is a 60k Microsoft word table that I had cut and pasted into elog. 

Apologies if these are known bugs, I'm very busy at the moment but I wanted to post this before I forget:

I'm using Safari on a Mac to make Elog entries.

1) The preview of some pdf attachments in edit mode displays huge areas of white space around each page. I can send examples if you'd like - please email me directly, for some reason I never get email notifications from this forum (and they aren't being tagged as spam, so I don't know where they go).

2) When that happens, the text entry area for ELcode format expands horizontally to match the huge pdf file width. Text without line feeds then doesn't wrap until the huge window width is filled, so I have to scroll horizontally all the time while editing to see what I've written.

3) So I turned off attachment previewing as a workaround (Preview attachments = 0 ). That worked fine by not expanding the entry area, but I noticed some odd behavior. The list of attachments below the text entry area is badly formatted. Here's a screen shot:

I tried to reproduce this with a new entry but the text was formatted properly for that entry.

P.S. While editing this entry, I see that the text area width is again being set by the width of the picture I've attached - try it yourself; if you try to resize your browser window smaller while editing, the text will only wrap until the width of the attachment is reached - the text no longer wraps at smaller widths than the attachment. 

Tried 2178 and I seem to hit some endless loop when I have big cookies. The loop seems to be in this for-loop (from gdb).

I perhaps you should have:

for (i = 0; *p && *p != ';' && *p != '\r' && *p != '\n' ; )

   if (i < (int) sizeof(cookie)-1)

      cookie[i++] = *p++;

   else
      break;

   cookie[i] = 0;

... Seems to be working for me =)

Hi,

I'm curious is it possible to send email notificaitons from elog through an smtp server that requires SSL/TLS authentication? I think it's not but I thought I'd ask.

Hi,

Is there a way perhaps of implementing an email recall feature into E-Log? In other words, to recall an email before the recipient (s) read the email originating from the e-log. Something perhaps along the lines of what exists in something like Outlook.

Thks in advance.

Regards,

Niall

Dear Stefan,

First of all, I appreciate that you made such a nice program. I've used elog for more than 5 years and it was wonderful experince to me and my research work was very productive with this.

I have a suggestion to you to improve this while I was using elog. If users can add texts or comments for each attachment, it will be great.

I am not sure if someone was already suggested this or it is already in your wish list.

Thank you.
