Hi,

I am using syntax like (from the doc):

Display Telephone = <a href="http://any.company.com/telbook.cgi?search=$Name">$Name's telephone number</a>

Until yesterday this was interpreted as HTML.

After upgrading to 2.7.7, I still get a valid link but the full HTML code is also displayed: the user sees
''<a href="http://any.company.com/telbook.cgi?search=myname">myname's telephone number</a>''
where he should only see:
''myname's telephone number''

I am 99% sure this is a consequence of the upgrade. Is there a way to get the original behaviour back?
Thanks a lot
Soren Poulsen




 I have more precise information about the nature of this issue, which concerns the display of E-logs

In the previous version 2.7.6, E-log would generate HTML like this:

td class="attribvalue">
<a href="https://edms.cern.ch/camms/plsql/d7i_report_CV_WO_VIEW.form_7?event=15403690&button=Search">15403690</a>&nbsp;</td>

In the latest version 2.7.7, E-log generates HTML like this (for the same attribute):

<td class="attribvalue">
&lt;a href="<a href="https://edms.cern.ch/camms/plsql/d7i_report_CV_WO_VIEW.form_7?event=15575045&amp;button=Search">https://edms.cern.ch/camms/plsql/d7i_report_CV_WO_VIEW.form_7?event=15575045&amp;button=Search</a>"&gt;15575045&lt;/a&gt;&nbsp;</td>

You need

Allow HTML = 1

in your configuration file. See the documentation for details. This featue is new in 2.7.7.

Thanks a lot. In fact I did not read the 2.7.7 version of the documentation, which I should have done.

Have a good aftenoon

  66542   Thu Sep 10 21:43:29 2009 Question Devin Bougiedab66@cornell.eduBug reportLinux2.7.7no "submit changes" pop-up with HTML editor
When locks are enabled, users should see a pop-up window asking them to submit an entry if they edit an entry but then go away from that page or 
close the browser without submitting the changes.  However, it only appears as though this works when using the plain or ELCode editors.  When 
using the HTML editor, no such pop-up appears.

If possible, a fix for this would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,
Devin

Thanks for reporting this problem, I fixed it in SVN revision 2256.
  66553   Fri Sep 18 07:32:38 2009 Question soren poulsensoren.poulsen@cern.chRequestLinux2.7.7Option list length

Hi,

I use the following attribute definition:

Options <attribute> = <list> 


 

However, I am being limited by the list length limit of 100. I have 103 items, but I only see 100.

Could the limit be extended (to 200 for instance) ?

 

Thanks a lot for your help

  66554   Fri Sep 18 07:39:02 2009 Warning soren poulsensoren.poulsen@cern.chBug reportLinux2.7.7User authorization file corruption

Hi,

Here is what happens (I think) if E-log encounters a full file system where it keeps the user authorization file:

1. When a user connects, E-log will make a backup of the file. The backup will be corrupt since the file system is full.

2. E-log will modify the contents of the original file, and write it back. The file will be corrupt since the file system is full.

3. Now, both the backup and the normal file are corrupt and you cannot log on, until someone cleans up the file system and restores a valid copy of the file.

Would it be possible to fix this ? Like abort if step 1 is not successful. And restore the backup file if step 2 is not successful.

Thanks a lot for you help

  66555   Wed Oct 7 01:31:05 2009 Idea Bill Pierbpier@clove.orgRequestAll2.7.7feature req.: identify ELOG web pages via META element

 

* Withdrawn *

The HTML layout produced by elogd is horrendous to deal with programmatically; I give up.

 


 

Hi,

I'm writing a greasemonkey script to slightly alter the look of the pages served by the ELOG server.  One difficulty that I'm struggling with is how to identify what type of page ELOG has created.  While I have several methods to determine the page type, such as a log entry vs. log entries summary, the solutions are not straight forward and not clean.  As far as I tell, there's no specific identification in HTML document currently that describes and identifies the type of page being served by the ELOG server.

So, I'm requesting that the pages created by ELOG be identified in some fashion with the META element, such as:

    <meta name="description" content="elog log entry" />

or

    <meta name="description" content="elog log summary" />

 

or even using the keywords attribute:

    <meta name="keywords" content="elog log summary" />

 

Thanks!
