Ok, I added the option

Tooltip <attribute> = ...

I apply the HTML "title" tag to the whole table row, so the tooltip appears on the
whole line, not only the attribute name. I guess this is much more intuitive. Give
it a try. New version under CVS and available as a snapshot.

Well, good idea. I implemented that. Have a look at this forum (just hit reply to this
entry) and you'll see it. I'm not completely happy with it (at least on small 1024x768
screens), but it's configurable anyhow. New version under CVS.

Now that creates an interesting display - especially with the icons and radio buttons. 
But it works!

Thanks.

I would too - and it actually produces the output that I wanted to see anyway.

Thanks!

I have an attributes defined as:

 - Attributes = Author, PlannedDate, FunctionalArea, Operation, Category,
HardwareName, Significance, EmailNotify, LastRevision, Subject

I have PlannedDate defined as:
 - Type PlannedDate = date

When I use the following statement:
 - Thread display = $subject, planned for $PlannedDate. Last revised:
$lastrevision

I get the following in my THREADED logbook view:

"Adding new services, planned for 1090519200. Last revised: Thu Jul 15
18:03:52 2004"

Note that the ATTRIBUTE $PlannedDate prints as a (I am guessing) serialized
date and is not formatted.

I'm not sure if this is manifested elsewhere.

Something to add to the wishlist:

- Type <attribute> = user

This would define an attribute as being of the type "user" which is a list
of login id's as defined in a password file or on the "Login user =" line. 
In a dataentry form the presence of this ATTRIBUTE would result in a
picklist of loginid's and/or fullnames.

With the "Preset text = " specified, when re-editing a logbook entry (say to
correct a spelling error) the text of the "Message" is replicated and placed
directly below the original text.

Commenting out the "Preset text = " line prevents this behavior.  this
occurs under both FireFox and IE6.0 clients.
