As is said:

Pipelining is an experimental feature, designed to improve page-load performance, that is unfortunately not well supported by some web servers and proxies.

So what do you expect Tongue

I have not checked in detail, but it seems that the browser fires off several requests in parallel, one for each image. This can only be handled by a multi-threaded server, which elog is not (yet). What is more an issue for elog in relation to multi-threading is that one long request blocks all other users. So if I do a synchronize for example from home, the server can be nonresponsive for a minute or two. I have some plans for making it multi-threaded, but as you can imagine this is not so simple to do in a portable way.

I tried to insert a row in the menu but it seems to totally ignore the command ...
both inserting a filename and simply typeing "Menu text = <b>PIPPO</b>" brings to a page with *no* "PIPPO" in the HTML source ...

is this a bug or another my misconfiguration???
  1185   Tue Jun 7 16:52:27 2005 Entry Emiliano GabrielliAlberT@SuperAlberT.itBug reportAll2.6.0-betaFind seems to ignore Start Date
It seems that making a search in which one selects *only* a start date *and* a "last" number of days
does not works correctly ..
Elog infact simply ignores the start date, showing the last N-days entries ..
This is a bug IMHO, and prevents me to include a quick filter for user, making easy to select a particular year/week in a JS calendar and than using this date as the start date for the logbook ...

here is an example: http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/?mode=threaded&reverse=1&npp=8&ma=6&da=14&ya=2004&last=7

If one specify *also* an "end date" the beaviour is correct..

uhm ... maybe I have realized ...

it's End Date to be used for this task... right??

If it is (as it seems) the search form is quite confusing .. as the "/ Last " select box it's just after the "start date" ...

uhm... I saw that this parameter makes the file to be included in the "entry" view...
Is there a global or "List Menu text" option? ... my goal is to add a JS calendar just at the left of the current "Show Last" button ... more generally I would like to be able to add custom icons, bottons or links to the menu..


uh oh ... just maked some tests before posting ... "Find Menu text" does my job !!!?!?!!!! why "Find" in the name? it is displayed in the list view, not Find ... Am I completely out?

BTW:
there is a typo ("lanugae") at http://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html Smile

Well, the normal list view was not there from the beginning. Originally you always saw the last entry, and had to click on "Find", do a search and then see the listing. Only later this became the default view. So "Find Menu text" was there from the beginning, and some people used it. If I change it now to "List Menu text", guess how many people would complain that their config file doen not work anymore.

Well, maybe I should allow both options "Find menu text" and "List menu text", change it in the documentation, and in a year from now remove the "Find menu text".
