Is there any way to configure elog so that attribute fields can be edited 
on more than line like the 'text' field? 

(This would be useful so that attributes could contain larger portions of 
text including line breaks)

thanks

Not yet, but I can implement it. Do you always have a column "text" in your
CSV data or would you like to be able to select which column goes into the
"text" field? Can you apend some sample CSV data so that I can have a look at it?

I have been importing data from a CSV file into elog which has worked.

However I'd like to import data from the CSV file, directly to the 'text' 
field, rather than just to one an attribute fields. Is it possible to do 
this?

Stefan,
thank you for the fast implementation of this feature. I compiled the new revision and
it worked as expected.

Kind regards,
Bertram

I implemented a switch "protect selection page" in revision 1.318, which can be
obtained at http://midas.psi.ch/cgi-bin/cvsweb/elog/src/elogd.c?rev=1.318. If this
switch is not set to "1", the selection page can be seen without having to log in.

Yes, that is what I want.

Right, guest access is not possible with a global password file. This comes from
the fact that people wish to protect their logbook selection page. What I can do
is add another flag "protect selection page = 0 | 1". If "0", the logbook
selection page can be seen without logging in. Is that what yo want?

Hello,

is it possible to have an guest account together with a global password file?

I tried to put the password file statement into the global section of
elogd.cfg. But in this case every user must login and it is not possible to
have a read only guest account. 
But if I put the password file statemnet into the logbook sections, it is
possible to access the logbooks in read-only mode without logging in. The
drawback of this solution is, that you have to login into every logbook
seperately.
