When I say "under CVS", I mean what I said in elog:233. The new version I
will release probably next week. |

Sure, that's what the "Config Examples" logbook is for. Just click on the
tab on top of this page. The forum you will find
under elog:Config%20Examples/4 . |

| Tomas Rudolf | tomas@mba.be | Request | | | HTML page formating | Is there a possibility to integrate into ELOG some more features in terms
of page formating?
Currently, the .cfg file allows you to specify only the data structure of
the dataentry/consultation HTML page. And you only have very limited
possibilities to change the layout of the page (basically only the order of
attributes on the page and with the help of the .css file the font, color
and background of the page as a whole).
What we would like to do is to :
+ apply a stylesheet class to an attribute (change the particular TD class)
+ specify the width of a textfield (sometimes it is really not necessary to
have such a long textfield area for a 3-letter long code)
+ put an attribute on the same line as the previous one (instead of putting
it automatically on the next line)
Therefore, in addition to the current attributes & parameters, we suggest
the following syntax in the .cfg file:
+ parameter AttribPos which would specify the position of an attribute,
it's lenght (for text attributes only) and the .css class to apply
+ parameters in [] are optional
AttribPos AttribName = same_line, width, [class]
Examples:
AttribPos DateUp = 0,20, [important]
+ Attribute "DateUp" will be put on the next line, the textfield width will
be 20 characters and a .important class will be applied to it from the
default (or specified) .css file.
AttribPos DateUp = 1,15,
+ this puts the DateUp attribute on the same line, width 15
We believe that these improvements would help to make the ergonomy of the
screen better and thus facilitate the user-dataentry/consultation. |

| Stefan Ritt | stefan.ritt@psi.ch | Request | | | Re: HTML page formating | I implemented your request. The syntax is:
Format <attribute> = <flags>,<css_class_name>,<css_class_value>,<width>,<size>
<flags>
Sum of following values:
1: Display attribute in same line as previous attribute
2: Display radio buttons or check boxes in separate lines (if applicable)
<css_class_name>,<css_class_value>
Cascading Style Sheet class names used for cells containing attribute name
or value, respectively. The classes must be defined in the style sheet file
(usually themes/default/default.css)
<width>>
Width of the text entry field in characters
<size>
Maximum number of characters allowed.
Default is "0, attribname, attribvalue, 80, 500". Trailing parameters can be
ommitted, so specifying for example only the flags is possible.
In order to have several attributes in one line, each line is now a separate
table. This requires adjustment of the CSS class "attribname". Best you use
the current default stylesheet (http://midas.psi.ch/elogdemo/default.css).
You can compare the two different approaches (one attribute per line/multiple
attributes per line) in this forum and the "archive" logbook. The "subject"
field in this forum also uses a different style class.
Note that if you upgrade to the current CVS version
(http://midas.psi.ch/cgi-bin/cvsweb/elog/src/elogd.c?rev=1.129), you also
have to change following options in your elogd.cfg:
- The style sheet must contain the new class "attribhead"
- "Email message body" has been replaces by "Email format"
- "Filtered browsing" is now off by default
- Locking (during editing of messages) is disabled by default, and enabled
by "Use lock = 1" |

| Tomas Rudolf | tomas@mba.be | Request | | | Re: HTML page formating | Very interesting, indeed!
Thank you very much for the implementation. I believe this is a big step ahead
in terms of ELOG screen formating (and therefore easier/more ergonomic
dataentry/reading).
We will test your modifications as soon as you make a new release.
