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

 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.

My Time field is displayed i  a 12 Hour format I would like to change it to 24 Hours, can someone advised how it can be done

 Sorted no problem

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.

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

Soren
