Ah, I see. Hmm, ok it doesn't work without the s either. I can't access the server in that case. Ok, I think I'll just wait for this feature to be available. Thanks for your help!

Greetings,

In table list mode, I would like to control how much width is given to "subject" column (my attribute).   Can't find any method to control in config file.  Problem is that the subject is often quite long and jammed into a small width, when the text is often empty and has more width than needed.

Thanks,

Is there a way to create a "front page" or "table of contents" for a logbook?

While chronological entries are good and what elog was designed for, I find myself wanting a page to summarize important things
and/or link to important files that are somewhere in that logbook.  And, I would like to use the features of the elog editor to do (not just point
to another www page that points to the various elog entries).  For example, in an analysis logbook, you would like to have one page that
may summarize latest on analysis and point to best/latest plot/drawing of something and not have to re-search for it every time.

I think that start page with cmd to go to entry 1 (how do I do that?) may work.  Then I just keep editing entry 1 to point to latest info or
entries.  Will this work?  Will I run into a size limitiation if I attach too many files to that?   Is there a better way?

One could imaging using a wiki to do this, however, I never seem to get to updating our wikis... maybe I should just figure how to
get elog to do it.

Thanks.

Thanks for suggestion... it gave me idea for slightly different way to do it.  The method you suggest doesnt work that well to share in group (everyone would have to add that link in their bookmarks).. So I added this in config file:
Title image = <img border=0 height=25 src="bulb.png" alt="Summary/TOC entry">
Title image URL = <http:link to my specific elog page/entry num>

That replaces elog help icon with a link to TOC entry which can be any entry number.  One could make a custom icon and perhaps play around with adding more than one link (?).

Another thing that could do same thing and maybe more consistent with elog philiosophy would be to add a command that goes to a specific link or entry.... but this current solution works...

 I have been using the mirror mechanism for one year for the online T2K /ND280 (neutrino oscillation experiment at J-PARC, Japan).  It has been a savior to allow access to all collaborators to the Elog.  The experiment online computers are all behind a double firewall that allow only communication through ssh and http in one direction: from the inside to the outside. The master Elog is located in Canada and accessible remotely to all collaborators.  The mirror Elog is located inside the firewall on one of the online machines in Japan and synchronization is setup to run automatically every 5 minutes. There are 10 logbooks defined for each of the sub-detector groups.

At first I encountered a big problem when messages were added on both sides.  It turned out that Elog mirroring does not work when the two instances are running on different time zones. After I set the machine in Canada to run on Japan time (JST), no further problems have happened. Postings are routinely entered on either of the Elogs and synchronization works well.  This feature is essential to having a workable Elog for the T2K experiment. 

I had reported the problem of timezones to Stefan last year. He was going to put it on his wish list.

I am on an experiment that used ELOG for all documentation and meeting notes. In our meeting notes we link to elog posts that had been discussed during the meeting. We had done this by hyperlinking the URL to the entry. Recently we had to move our logbook to another machine and so none of our hyperlinks work since the URLs have changed. I noticed that when one creates a new entry in the subject they can reference another post. Is there a way to link another elog in the body of the elog by using its logbook name and id number without having to use a URL?

Thanks in advance

Hey,

I am testing out automated entries using elog on the command line. The file I pass has html code for a table; the resulting entry shows the html code for the table instead of generating the table. Is there a way to make elog parse the code to show a formatted table?

Thanks  in advance.

I haven't tried `stunnel` with elog, but as far as I read from various
sources, stunnel requires you to create an SSL certificate. In attachment,
you'll find a sample case for stunnel and smtp (port 25) + pop3 (port 110).
Hope this helps.
