  1582   Wed Jan 11 15:54:28 2006 Warning Yoshio ImaiBug reportLinux2.6.0r1593Page browsing links in Find mode broken
Hi!

We are having problems with the "Find" mode in the latest revision. When we used "Find" to search for specific texts, and the results span more than one page (say, 2 for example), the page links in the command bar on top point to the ELOG pages rather than the find result pages. This means that, when I click onto "Previous" from find result page 2 (which is the first page getting displayed), I get to logbook page 1 (entries 1 to 20) and not to the previous page of find results. I think this didn't happen in earlier versions. Could you check that? It also happens here in the Forum.

Thanks

Yoshio

Here are the parameters I am using for dates:

Attributes = Ticket #, Status, Assigned To, Status Date, Install Date, Category, Activity, Environment, Component, TstTrk
Type Status Date = date
Type Install Date = date
Date format = %A, %d %B, %Y

Preset Status Date = $date


Thanks!

Never mind. I figured it out!

Very nice, thanks! Yes, vou're right, MS fonts have a chance of working on newer Linux distributions, but not on all and there are still older ones out there - never mind all those folks sitting behind some kind of Solaris/Sparc box or similar... Big grin

I'm just after installing 2.6.0 and marvelling at all the changes, especially ELCode (I was using 2.5.8 previously). However, I noticed that the "FONT" menu for ELCodes only offers Microsoft fonts Astonished - something I usually avoid like hell when publishing web content, as I cannot rely on those being installed on the clients. As far as I can see there is no easy way to change this, short of patching the source - or is there?
I'd want to add at least options like "serif" and "sans-serif" and maybe some standard (Unix\?) fonts like "Helvetica".

Another little issue I came across was this: I'm using "Menu commands" and "Guest Menu commands" in my configuration. When I logged in and started to create a new entry, clicking on the URL that is behind "ELCode" at the bottom of the screen (and accesses the help for the ELCodes) resulted in a "command denied". The only way to get around this was to add "HelpELCode" to "Menu commands" - but now it also shows up in the menus, which is not what I want. Is there any way around this?


Thanks for reporting that problem. I fixed that in revision 1592.

Was a bug. I have fixed that in revision 1591.

I implemented that request. When you click on "list", it takes you to the listing page containing the current entry, which is even highlighted. Have a look at this forum if this is what you like.


Thank you!
I just installed the latest revision; it is exactly what we need.
I found one problem, however: while linking the binaries for elogd, the linker complained about an undefined reference to forkpty implemented in libutil. I had to add the linker option
 -lutil 
to the Makefile target elogd:, then it compiled correctly.

Thanks for the work from all, and happy new year.
