Try: (From monster.com)
<SELECT NAME="lid" multiple size="5">
<OPTION VALUE=""> ------- Select all -------- </OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE="323">Alabama-Anniston</OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE="324">Alabama-Birmingham</OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE="325">Alabama-Mobile/Dothan</OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE="328">Alabama-Montgomery</OPTION>
...
</SELECT>

Although this may not be supported in all browsers. (I think recent versions of 
Netscape and IE support it)

I'm configuring this great application in order to replace the previous
elogbook my community is using (in the accelerator's world).

One of the main and mandatory feature they cannot renunce is the possibility
of displaying every attached image just inline, without having to click over
the file name or to enter the entry view (in which the attachment can
already be displayed inline) ...  

- images (and hopefully ps, eps, pdf) be displayed inline just after the
text body of the message in the main "List" view
- possibility to configure the scale of this view
- possibility of build some thumbs in order to save BW and time


Is there any way to do it or any plan to implement such a feature in the
very next future ? 

current version uses strstr() to check if the file has the expected ascii
text extension ... this is buggy becouse this way a file named
".txt_hidden_file" or "foo.config.dat" are both seen as .txt files.

the following patch fixes the problem, plz apply to cvs:

You can achieve that by using "Edit", and then check "Resubmit as new entry",
then click "Submit".

The idea is good, but it does not work for me. What happens when I do this is
that I get a new ID, but the old ID is deleted.... It disappears from the list,
and if you try to access it manually it says that it is deleted.

Bug then? My config?

So subscribe to ELOG RSS feeds, do the following:

- In Thunderbird, click "Tools/Account setting", then click "Add account",
"RSS News & Blogs", "Next", "Finish", "Ok".

- Select "News & Blogs" in the "Folders" pane, right-click and select
"Properties"

- Click on "Manage Subscriptions..."

- Click on "Add"

- Enter the Feed URL of elog. Use your logbook URL and add "elog.rdf". For
this forum for example, enter

http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/elog.rdf

- Click OK. That's all.

See how the RSS feed shows up in the attached image. Please note that you
need public read access to your logbook for this to work (via "Guest menu
commands"), since the RSS mechanism does not support authentication.

Is it possible to create a Link To command (ala Copy To, Move To) that
would allow you to reference an entry in another log book without copying it?
This would be handy as the info would be kept current in both log books.
My thought is that it would create a psuedo entry in the other log
book that pointed back at the originating log book entry (similar to a 
UNIX soft link)

Is it possible to have last runtime filtering and viewing method to be
stored in a cookie in order to make them permanent across navigation ?

I mean:
- if I decide to view "all" entries in the elog and then open one of them, 
  I'd like not to select "show all entries" again and again
- same thing if I choose to view last week
- same for every runtime filter and/or viewing option 

hope this is simple to implement :-)  thanks in advance
