icon6.gif   Attribute and checkbox, posted by Arno Teunisse on Sun Sep 3 21:57:00 2006 untitled.JPGuntitled1.JPG
In the screen shots I see checkboxes before the attributes. How can I do that ??
In the doc I saw Options <attribute> = boolean. But that creates a checkbox in the fill in form after the attribute. See second attached picture. The first attached picture shows what I want but I can only get the result in the second picture. Can anybody help me in this one. ( Is there an option checked for the attributes ?

Thanks for your detailed information. The hint with the two different revisions heally helped. I fixed that in revision 1695, and made an intermediate release 2.6.1-7. This will fix the problem. Can you please check that this is working?


Sorry for my ( very ) late answer , But yes the problem is GONE after installing the new release? Thanks.

Just answer it myself : I thought of the checkboxes in front of the attributes as boolean. However, it has to to with the browse feature filtered browsing =1= In this way you can, when checking one of the checkboxes, browse to the same item clicking the next and previous button. Sorry , my question was about RTFM ( Read The Fucking Manual ) So this question is solved.

However , it would be nice to have a checkbox in front of one attribute. Suppose you have a lot a entries in a record ,that are readonly( predefined). The user of the form must only confirm that a job is done by checking the checkbox without going to the edit mode. So, the checkbox is writable in readonly mode. I can inmagine something like : attribute record check = attribute in the configuration file. In this way the user of the form says : job done. There can be only one checkbox for the record.

[ job done]  [ customer ] [ activity ] [ What should be done ]
[X]           BLA          Check job1   Backup mail check
[]            BLA1         Check job2   check error report
[X]           Bla2         Check job3   check MQ jobs
Is this possible ?? It's just an idea

Thanks for your reading this

I have not been able to find anything wrong in my config file, so I replaced 2.6.2 with 2.6.1 (apparently that was what I was running last, not the 2.6.0-beta) and my troubles have disappeared.

Anybody have any idea what has happened?
icon7.gif   elog perl script and the command prompt and eof, posted by Arno Teunisse on Thu Sep 7 22:06:00 2006 add2elog.pl
hello

Just wrote a quick and dirty perl script ( See Attachment ) that let's you enter a record into the database. Put it into the directory where the config file is located. It look's at the "attributes = " and the "required attributes = "
within a section in the elog configuration file. The script is using elog.exe to accomplish this.

One problem with the script is that you must press Control_Z ( ^Z ) to store the data into the database.
Does anybody know how to prevent this ? It works also when redirecting the data into the script with a file input.txt. ( add2elog.pl confgi.cfg logbook < input.txt )

I Know this is NOT an elog question but maybe someone is happy with the script and has the answer for me.
icon5.gif   new entry form - "minimalist" approach , posted by frederic poncin on Mon Sep 18 16:53:09 2006 
I'm playing with the configuration files in order to produce a "minimal" form.
At this time, I did not succeed in removing the following components:

- the "Fields marked with * are required" field
- the "Entry time:" field
- the "encoding ELCode / plain / HTML" field
- the "preview" button
- the duplication of the Submit/Preview/Back buttons on the top and the bottom of the page.

Is any of this possible?

This is handled by
Required attributes = ...

so just remove this line completely if you don't need them.

These fields are always present and cannot be turned off. If you are concerned about screen space (PDA\?), you can change the CSS file for smaller fonts etc.

This problem has been fixed in revision 1712. So I made an 2.6.2-2 for the Windows community just now. Please upgrade.
