Hi,
I'm currently trying to setup a logbook which will contain process descriptions. One of the attributes will be the resists that are used. This could be more than one resist, hence I try to use MOptions but users should also be able to add materials to the selection list. When I write the following, I get some problems though:
Required Attributes = Name, Author, Resists
MOptions Resists = Nano Copolymer EL-10, S1813
Extendable options = Resists
If a user wants to add a resist, he gets a textbox to add the new resist (which will contain what was already toggled), but there is now way to select also other resists that are already available, without saving the post and than edit it again. Previously selected resists are deselected when a new resist is added (if the user had emptied the textbox) and one can not save the newly added attribute option without saving the whole entry.
Is there a nice way to implement this (am I overlooking an obvious solution), or is this not possible at all. I guess an ideal solution would be to get some sort of ok button when one adds an attribute option and after confirming the new value that one gets back to the checkboxes without exiting the edit mode.
Regards,
Michaël
PS: This is the complete config for this logbook:
Theme = default
Page Title = $logbook - $Name
Edit Page Title = $logbook
Comment = Photolithography Processes
Quick filter = Name, Resists
Preset Author = $long_name
Reverse sort = 1
Attributes = Name, Author, Resists
Sort Attributes = Resists, Name, Author
Required Attributes = Name, Author, Resists
MOptions Resists = Nano Copolymer EL-10, S1813
Extendable options = Resists
Sort Attribute Options Resists = 1
List display = Name, Author, Resists

I want to extend the usage of ELOG and have 2 Questions:
1. Is it possible to have Fields which only appears if another selection is done? e.g. I create a new entry. This new entry has a type field. If I chose the Type "ABC" another field appears where the departemnt could be choosen. If I select Type "DEF" the Department field does not appear.
2. I have a field Status. This is a predefined field with 3 entries (New, under progress, closed). If i change the status field time, date old and new status should be logged or written in the text field. I can log this with the answer field with a new ID. But is there any other way to log it in the text field or log it with no new ID?
Can i implement the wishes above? If yes how does it work?
Thanks for your help

Hi
Would it be possible to use the "Export to:" function with IE7 on the Forum logbook, and save the logbook.
I can do the export but saving the file with IE7 does not work. Saving the file with Firefox, Chrome, Safari works.
This makes me think that E-log is good and IE7 is bad ?

One of my shifters just managed to make an anonymous logbook entry even though the Author attribute is required.
It turns out that he had two tabs in his browser opened/logged into the Elog. He logged out in one tab only. Then he
did some other work on the desktop. Then he returned to the browser to make a new logbook entry, finding the tab which
still showed the logged in menu, including the link for "New". The Shifer is on day two, so he did not give any special
notice to seeing Anonymous in the Author field instead of his name. He did point it out when I came in, and noted that
no warning was given about making an anonymous entry.
I tested the same scenario myself. One cannot preview an anonymous entry (when Author field is a required attribute).
A warning is given. However, one can submit the anonymous entry, and no warning is given.
