 Hi, I have a question regarding the Protect Selection option. I have the option enabled and I have to login to get into the logbook. What I would like to accomplish is that the page does not display anything (none of the posts) when it is opened. The only option should be to login.

Is this possible?

 

Regards,

 

John

  66575   Wed Nov 4 00:58:00 2009 Idea Richard Stamperr.stamper@rl.ac.ukInfoWindows2.7.7Problems zooming elog pages in Internet Explorer - a possible fix

Internet Explorer fails to display correctly some aspects of pages generated by elog when the zoom functionality is used (Ctrl + and Ctrl -).  This is really a bug in the IE renderer rather than elog, but since IE can be persuaded to do better relatively easily it might be worth making some minor changes to make elog more robust when used with the buggy Microsoft browser.

The problem I encountered was initially with the multiple checkboxes for an Moptions attribute, but I noticed later it also affects the logbook tabs at the top of the screen.  If you start creating a submission to this forum in IE (7 or earlier, at least) you can see the problem; when zooming, the text labels and  the checkboxes do not scale together so start overlapping, and the same happens with the logbook tabs and the text links on them.  The problem is apparently to do with a proprietary IE concept called "layout" - see http://www.satzansatz.de/cssd/onhavinglayout.html for details - and IE struggles when some elements do not have the hasLayout property set to "true".

The fix is to coerce elements to have the hasLayout element set to "true" by giving them some benign CSS property.  The best I can find is to set "display: inline-block" for some of the key elements, and this can be done by modifying default.css rather than the elogd.c code.

Adding

span {
  display: inline-block;
}

to default.css (e.g. just after the default style definition for the "td" element) and adding

  display: inline-block;

to the style sets for the .sltab and .ltab classes (generic, not those specific to the "a" element) seems to prevent IE doing bad things with the display when zooming without messing up the display in Firefox.  I have not tested this comprehensively or in any other browsers, but I thought it might be worth passing on.

Cheers,

Richard Stamper

Hi Stefan,

since recently (a few weeks) ELOG confuses the language translations.
Individual language strings are translated into garbage; most other strings are fine.
Currently I see the string "please select" translated into "ressed" (see attached picture), instead of what's written correctly in the language file "bitte auswählen".
But with every restart the corrupted strings vary: other strings are affected and other garbage strings are shown - some of them unreadable binary code (see Attachment 2).
I have the same version running in English: I see no problems there.
Kind regards

Andreas

Hi all,

i have problems with execute delete (execute new works fine) in following config (the attribute 'Counter' will not evaluated). Can anybody help me?

 

Here is the config:

 

Attributes = Counter, Autor, Adressat, Start, Ende, Mitteilung, TextBeachten

Show Attributes = Counter, Autor, Adressat, Start, Ende, Mitteilung, TextBeachten
Show Attributes Edit = Counter, Autor, Adressat, Start, Ende, Mitteilung, TextBeachten


Type Start = date
Type Ende = date
Required Attributes =  Autor, Adressat, Start, Ende, Mitteilung
Extendable options = Adressat
Preset Autor = $long_name
Preset Counter = SoMi-#####



Locked Attributes = Autor, Counter
Required Attributes =  Adressat, Start, Ende, Mitteilung

Options Adressat = Alle, 1. Semester, 2. Semester, 3. Semester, 4. Semester, 5. Semester, 6. Semester, 7. Semester, 8. Semester
MOptions Textbeachten = Bitte Mitteilungs-Text anzeigen lassen



Execute new = C:\xampp\mysql\bin\mysql.exe -h localhost -u root -p123456 -D screen -e "insert into somi (counter,adressat,start,ende,kumi,mitlami,lami) values ('$Counter', '$Adressat', '$Start', '$Ende', '$Mitteilung',  '$TextBeachten', '$text')"


Execute delete = C:\xampp\mysql\bin\mysql.exe -h localhost -u root -p123456 -D screen -e "delete from somi where counter='$Counter'"

 

 

 

Thanks in advance and Merry Christmas!!

  65817   Wed Apr 9 14:41:12 2008 Warning Yoshio ImaiBug reportLinux2.7.3-2072Problems with elog client

Hi!

 

Since our upgrade to elog 2.7.3, it is not possible any more to edit an existing elog entry using the elog client with -e <id> option. The only console output is "Error transmitting message". Submitting an entry via the client is not problem.

Running the server with -v option does not yield any output at the time of the edit attempt. Running the client with -v option also doesn't help, because whatever the other options, only the help page is printed out and nothing else done. Btw, there is now a conflict between -s for "use SSL" and -s for the "subdir" option.

 

Any ideas?

 

Yoshio
