I could turn the ASCII display off, but the result is not always what you want.
If you have a HTML file without the <html>, <header> and <body> tags, it's ok.
But if you have these tags in your HTML (and this is the normal case), the
resulting page has these tags twice, once from the ELOG page and once from the
attachment. This confuses some browsers, so the resulting page might look
strange. A solution would be to strip these tags from the attachment, but for
that I would have to interprete the HTML attachment completely, which is too
much work.

So I will turn the ASCII display off in the next release, but be prepared to see
some nonexpected results.

When I upload a HTML-File as attachement the file is shown as the
HTML-source and not as the formatted text. Is there a possibility to see the
HTML-attachements as formatted text like images are shown as images?

Wow! You are really fast!

I'm going to try it now!

This works for me :)


Thanks for quick response Stefan!

Ok, I implemented a 'Duplicate' command (see this forum for example). I guess this is clearer
than modifying some of the existing functionality like 'resubmit' or 'copy to'. With 'copy to'
you probably want to keep all information from the original entry, including the submission
time, when you move it from one logbook into an other. So if we put an 'EntryUpdate Copy To',
this would not be possible any more. The new version is under CVS.

Thank you!

Or what I understand with "Resubmit as new entry", keep the old and create a new entry.
Perhaps you can trigger behavior of resubmit with a switch?
Duplicate Resubmit = 1
(default to 0 - old behavior)

or your idea is good as well.

Or just update the Entrytime if you are using Copy To:
EntryUpdate Copy To = 1

with also solves my case.

(and switch for Move To as well?)


Have a nice evening,

Best regards
Michael

Now I understand. What you ask for is not possible right now, but I put it on the
wishlist. The best would be to add a new command "Duplicate" to the menu, which lets you
do exactly what you want.

But I want a duplicate entry of the entry.... so that I can reuse the text and other
items and just change the entrys that need to be changed.

E.g, you have a work request from one user with some kind of solution on it, then you
get a similar request from another user and you want to have almost the same
information in a new entry. Then you just want to create a copy of the old case and
change whatever needs to be changed.

I'm not sure if you understand what I tries to do?

Right, that how it's supposed to be. Same would happen if you move the entry. It's
deleted from the old place and resubmitted as a new entry. Otherwise you would have
your entry twice, and that is certainly not what you want. How come you access it
manually? If you access it through the list, everything should be fine. I even
update the references if there are replies to this entry, so the replies still
point to the right entry.
