Select Data, Text to Columns, and you have an Excel Spreadsheet. They wanted me to post the change in function anyway, though I told Vamsi, "just watch, someone will post the same workaround that I already gave to the clients". So you see why I find it amusing. I would say Great Minds Think Alike, but that would be giving myself a bit too much credit (grin). First, thank you for proving me right on my prediction and if you should happen to make a change that would get around this SSL change in behavior, it would make a group of manufacturing types that are not quite as comfortable with computers as we are, very happy. Please let us know.

I can easily remove the "no-cache" from the header, but as I wrote you, people can then shoot themselves into the foot by getting an old document, and I guess they become even less happy then. So you tell me which way you prefer. |

For security reasons (XSS or cross site scripting) , HTML code in attributes is not allowed by default. To turn it on (and if you know what you are doing), add following line to your configuration
Allow HTML = 1 |

I see the same problem with IE. The knowledge base says that one should remove the "no-cache" statement from the header, but that has strange side effects: Assume you export a logbook to a CSV file, and a few days later you export it again, since many things changed. But you browser will in that case not retrieve the new logbook, but read the old CSV file from the cache. But the browser does not tell you this, so you see an old version of the logbok without knowing this, which can be dangerous. So I better leave the "no-cache" in the header. The workaroung is not to click on "Save" on the file download dialog, but on "Open". You see then the CSV data inside the browser and can copy/paste it into a notepad document, then save it.

We have been running elog for a couple of years now and this morning it stopped working.
We have tried to rstart it and it says successful start but still does not run, when doing a restart it says stop failed start success.
Does anyone have any ideas.
thanks

You shoudl start elogd interactively in a DOS box to see if there is any error. Maybe disk full or a network problem...
|
It is running on a linux box, we have started in it in a telnet session, and no errors appear, as I am new to e-log is there an error log anywhere.
|
Have fixed this by removing the last added user from the Passwd file. |
