icon5.gif   local usage on windows + Linux virtual machine , posted by Sara Vanini on Fri Jan 24 14:56:56 2020 
Hello again, 

I love to use elog, but I don't need any other accessing it for the moment. So, it is possible to run elog locally on my PC, and make it
not accessible from outside?

Elog does not access the outside world by default. With the VM I suppose just access it via the Linux local ip address (and
port).

Thanks John. I found the linux IP address with ifconfig, type it on my windows machine with the port number, but it doesn't work, the error is "website
not found"... what else could I try?

After we upgarde to eLog 3.1.4 ... The HTML editor tools are grayed out and you can't paste any images in the body of the log like I did below..

This typically happens if you update only the executabe and not the full directory tree with the ELOG JavaScript files.

Thank yoy for responding back to me ... I run the excutable that I downloaded from the website .. How can I do the full directory tree with the ELOG
JavaScript files??

We just tested eLog and it works in Chrome but not in IE .. Is it a setting issue that we need to chnage on IE ?!

Hello,

I'm using ELOG with Ubuntu 19. When I create or edit an entry and I start writing, it hangs for few seconds, resumes, and all over again
intermittently.

When creating new logbook entries, recent versions of firefox somehow ignore the message width setting.

For example, configure a logbook with:

As an example, I created this same entry in the demo logbook using Safari.  As you can see there, the message is wrapped at the width that I set the text
entry box.
icon5.gif   Change column width in list mode?, posted by David Wallis on Mon Dec 2 23:28:28 2019 
In some of our logbooks, some columns are very narrow, which makes their content difficult to read. I have tried adding a custom css file like this:

listframe td:nth-child(3) {
   width: 250px;

You need

.listframe td:nth-child(3) {

I think I know what the answer(s) will be already.. that I will need to address this in JS. I don't want each screen to run/show the same code, other
than the ones I want to.  AND I do not want to have to create a custom form for each 'menu option' to achieve this (if possible).

Thanx,
    icon2.gif   Re: How to selectively use Top/Bottom Text JavaScript., posted by Stefan Ritt on Wed Dec 4 10:15:56 2019 
In JS, you have access to the browser URL via window.location. So you can write conditional code depending on the actual elog command.

We've been successfully running nearly a dozen separate logbooks on independent

Wow, having these color signal lamps really looke like a cute solution, made me laugh.

No, there is no other way than the Execute new thing. I have
given up long time ago to use Windows services, because they are very hard to debug and very limited. So at our site everything runs under Linux.

Well, there I was, eating Thanksgiving dinner, when suddenly, it hit me (no, not indigestion).  I can write a simple program that parses out
the latest "Status" from the most recent logbook file -- a relatively easy task, since it's a text file.  This solution avoids
having to execute a shell command at all.  GOOOOOOAAAAAAL!!!
