I found a problem in the elogd.c code, which might cause that proplem
sometimes. The fix is available from
http://midas.psi.ch/cgi-bin/cvsweb/elog/elogd.c
If you need a windows executable, please let me know.

That should not be necessary, since elogd reads in the configuration file at
each access, so it can be modified externally without problem (although the
internal configuration should be the preferred way...)

I will have some spare time towards the end of August, so I hope to work on
these requests next month. |

Having multi-line attributes would be pretty difficult since it would break
the way the database works (one attribute at a line). So for now, you have to
use the text box and the reply functionality to deal with problems and fixes
(like for this entry). |
Implementation of RSS feeds, posted by Stefan Ritt on Mon Oct 25 23:16:39 2004
|
I implemented experimentally RSS feeds into Elog. Before releasing this new
addition, I would like to collect some experience with it. This forum now
supports RSS feeds, for which you can subscribe with a RSS feed reader like
Mozilla Firefox. Please give it a try and send me any feedback.
For an introduction to RSS feeds, please see
http://www.webreference.com/authoring/languages/xml/rss/intro/
To subscribe to a logbook, enter following URL into your RSS reader:
http://<your-elog-host.domain>/<logbook>/elog.rdf
From the newest Mozilla Firefox browser, you can also click on the RSS box at
the lower right corner of the browser (see attachment). |

The documentation was wrong about that which has been corrected. The proper
file contents should be
<h1>You successfully submitted a message</h1>
<a href="?cmd=Back">Back</a> to the logbook<p>
<a href="?cmd=New">Enter</a> another message
This way one only needs one file for all logbooks. |
