1.

I do not know if this is a problen of the 2.5.5 (11/03/04) version or of
other versions as well:

I'm using the $message id parameter in a substitution:
Subst KlientIn/KundIn = $Vorname $Name; P: $Telefon Privat; G: $Telefon
Geschäft; N: $Telefon Mobil; $Landeskennung-$PLZ $Ortschaft [<a
href="http://localhost:8080/$logbook/$message id">$logbook:$mesage id</a>]

the "$message id" will not be replaced by the msg id, the string "$message
id"  will be dispalyed and used. Other substitutions as $logbook etc. are
working.

Is this a bug or did i missunderstood the manual?


2.

Since Version 2.5.5: If ELOG is running under German, the "Zurück" Bottom is
named "Back". Any Idee where I can change this back?  ;-)

2.5.4-6 was corretly translated.

1. thats now clear with the £message id and the work-around is ok for my 
needs

2. the "bacl" link is clear and tranlated to "Liste". But I mean the back 
button 
in the entry and the edit mode (see picture)...  ;-)

installed elog 2.5.5 agin, same effekt with "back" / "zurück". checked the 
language file eloglang.german witch seem ok for me and the translations are 
well done. removed then in eloglang.germen the traslation for back and checked 
this: still back was viewed. reinserted the translation "Zurück" (just this 
word!)and checked again: everithing looks fine, no longer back, correctly 
Zurück on the button.
absolutly no idea why and whats the difference was! bus it works...
thank's stefan!  :-)

God really STRANGE and problematic effect on 2.5.5-1 (can't remember it this
was with 2.5.5 or 2.5.4-X but i'm nearly sure it worked well):

Entering a date (Formate Bithday = date) may crash down the server:
Value is 22.2.2004: Everything is well
Value is 22.2.1962: Server crashes emmediatly (menas restarzing several
times, always the same problem)

I do not have time to check true all the years for finding out where the
problem may beginn, sorry. Also I was not able to check on other systems
right now. My system: Win XP Pro SP 1, IE 6 as well as Mozilla Calssic 1.7.3. 

Didn't check it under Linux right know in case of a lot work.

Clould you this fix please Stefan???  THANK'X!!!

know that illness...  :-(  but was the last of the family of 4 people

i'd like to ask for an other usefull change togehter with this and how url's are 
handled by elog:

since there may be spaces in the name of a logbook (ex. "1stWordOfLogbook 
2ndWordOfLogbook") it is very userfriendly to name logbooks. also it's easy th 
make a reference for a other entry by copy and paste:

Display ThisURL = http://localhost:8080/$logbook/$message id

however, using spaces in the logbook name may give a wrong result, because the 
url would be http://localhost:8080/1stWordOfLogbook

and the space as well as the 2ndWordOfLogbook//$message id is only normal text.

may it be possible stefan, to replace the space in an url (starting 
with "http://") with a "+" or "%20"? this would allow to automate some things. 
actual the logbook name has to be hardcoded.

Just upgraded from stable running 2.5.2-2 to 2.5.9-2 in case of the usable
Duplicate function. After the problem discribed below i made a new, clean
installation again and played araound with the demo logbook, copying my
testlogbook (part of a real used and under 2.5.2-2 working logbook) into the
demo cfg file. 

ia figured out two serious problems:

1. If I copy the following section to the global into the demo lgbook,
elogd.exe crashes emediatly ewhile starting as a prozess:

[global]
Language = German
Theme = default
logbook tabs = 1
main tab = INHALT
welcome title = <b><big>Ulrich Rolf Trüssel</big></b>
Adressverwaltung
(Geschäft & Privat)
Mensch-Tier
Coaching&trade;&nbsp;&nbsp;-&nbsp;&nbsp;Mensch-Hund
Coaching&trade;
Interessengemeinschaft Familienhund&reg; - Regionalgruppe
Zentralschweiz
Lorenz Tierschule
port = 8080
Theme = default
Message Width = 100
Message Height = 25
Filtered browsing = 1
Suppress default = 2
Suppress Email on Edit = 0
Email Format = 0
Filtered browsing = 1
HTML default = 3
Reverse sort = 1

2. problem (the ting) that made me playing with teh demo cfg:
There are totally 8 logbooks running, but just one has this strange problem
of not giving a link to to the datasets in full and summary mode. I cutted
down all the stuff back to this only lines:

[Adresse2]
Attributes = Kundensegment, Duzis, Hauptadresse, Selektion, Sperre, Adresse,
Unterlagenversand, Empf. gegeben, Gruppe, Mitglied, URT, IGFH, Letzte
Anmeldung, IGFH Gruppe, IGFH JB, Anrede, Titel, Briefanrede, Vorname, Name,

Erziehungskurs, Hundesport, Bestätigung, OCCH LN, Andere Kurse, Weitere
Hunde/Tiere, Referenzen, KlientIn/KundIn
List Display = Name, Vorname

and got still the same problem. if i create a new logbook it will works,
also ut works under 2.5.2-2 but not longer under 2.5.3 up (even not
2.5.9-2). any idea? mening this may be a VERY basic logbook... trued with
list display etc. around, nothinh happen. Need to go back to 2.5.2-2 where
this wasn't a problem? 

thanjs for any idea of this to problems...
