Try

Moptions = name1, name2, ...

This gives you not a drop down list, but a series of check boxes, where you can select multiple persons simultaneously.

Unfortunately this is a limitation of HTML and your browser. Most photograph printing services have the same problem, you can only upload one photo at a time, so they come up with some Java programs you have to run locally to upload sets of photos. Or they have standalone programs, but they only work under Windows. So the only way to ease your pain is if you put your attachments into a single zip file.

Thank's for your answer.

Diogo Alves found a possibility, at least for firefox. Have a look here.

That has been fixed in meantime.

Have you tried the elogd.cfg setting:

[global]
URL = http://your.host/

it might help there.

You should at least receive a login page. So does this push back occur on a 
wrong username there or how does it happen?

Agree. Will work on that.

Can you reproduce the problem? If so, tell me the exact sequence of thing 
you do and I can try to reproduce it as well, then fix it.

Wow, your browser crashes? Funny, I never had that. So what does the browser 
say?

I will try to install 7.03 and reproduce this, might take some while...

Something like

Date format = %B %d, %Y

in your configuration file reduces the date string length considerably.
