Hello Alex and Stefan,

I know of only one way to "hide" the text of the status bar in a web browser;
use JavaScript - specifically the status method (as in the following example):

<!-- the following goes in the body of the document, perhaps in a link. -->

<!-- sample link -->
<a href="javascript://place link url here"
onMouseOver="window.status='Status Bar Text Goes Here'; return true">Link Text Here</a>

<!-- place the following script in the head of the document -->
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"><!--
window.defaultStatus="Default Status Bar Text Here";
--></script>

Of course the above only works in those browsers that support javascripting,
but it is one way to hide the actual text of links from the user.
Hopefully this helps you!

Gary Clayson

Hi Stefan,

I have found a little problem with elog. I'am using ELOG V2.5.8-6. When I'am on the logon page,
I type my Login and password and hit "submit", in the bottom of IE, we can show my password without encryption, it can be dangerous. I have made a screenshot to explain my problem better.
Could you fix it for the next release ?
Thanks a lot.
Alex

Can someone please enter a comprehensive list of the commands eLog will honor. I'm trying to build a 'decent' start page and am not totally familiar with eLog just yet. Thanks Stefan for an awesome application. The documentation is really decent, too. I just have been unable to locate a list of all commands available.
Thanks in advance.

icon5.gif   New Message Formatting and Default Settings, posted by Gary Clayson on Thu Jul 7 04:44:12 2005 
Hello All. Please Help! How can I turn off the formatting controls above the message text when making a new or reply entry? I included the flat 'Default Encoding = 1' in my config file, but it seems to have no effect. The log has been set up to suppress all email notification, as SMTP is not being used at my location (MS Exchange Server is being used). Also How can I turn off the icon selection panel to the left of a new message text box? And, finally, is it possible to turn off the Suppress Email notification checkbox AND not send emails? Forgive me for asking yet another - but the same question about turning off the Encoding buttons - Is there some method of setting I can enter into the config file to turn off the Encoding and default it to text entry only?

Forgive this entry being so long, I'm new to using ELOG; Thanks Stefan for an incredible application. Well thought out and elegant. Keep up the good work.

PS Reworking the source code, then recompiling it, is not a viable option for me at this time.

We have several logbooks running here with somewhat cryptic names. The comment field for the
logbook describes its intent well enough, so the thought was that the comment could show up in the
status bar (or tooltip) when you hover over the logbook name in the tabs at the top of the page.

___ yea Smile

I wonder if there is any way to use the javascript 'window.status' method to accomplish this. It would be a nice addition when there are many logbooks.

there's a link in the main elog web page.. it's under the Admin guide and it is the elog.cfg syntax guide


thanks for the advice. DuH on me, I just needed to read the syntax page a little more closely.

I just downloaded and installed beta2 and most of my questions have been answered. I now have a new question: What are the possible settings with the 'Default Encoding' flag? Can I please get a rundown on this one as the config syntax page does not list this one. Thanks in Advance.

icon3.gif   Suppress Email notification checkbox, posted by Gary Clayson on Thu Jul 7 05:30:24 2005 
Hello All. Stefan, would it be possible to add one more option to the Suppress Default flag? I'd appreciate a setting that would suppress emails being sent and remove the option from the page. Or, has this been accomplished? And, if so, what is that setting. Thanks in advance!! Keep up the great work.

I added
Suppress default = 3

which always suppresses email notifications. The addition is under CVS and will be included in the next release.

Thanks Stefan.
