Hi,
  I have an elog server which uses apache/ldap for authentication.

icon1.gif   Drop down order, posted by Alan Grant on Mon Jan 15 16:46:58 2018 
Can you please make a change to have the Quick Filter ComboBox controls reference the field type for ordering purposes?

For example, if attribute Lot Number is Type Numeric then the ComboBox should be listed in numerical order instead of alphanumeric (eg: 1,2,3,11,21
vs 1,11,2,21,3).

Hi,

icon1.gif   Calculations & Interfacing a DataBase with Elog., posted by John on Sat Jun 22 06:52:32 2019 
Hi, I am trying to calculate two or more Elog fields and then return the value to Elog. I am currently learning Perl to do this. I realize JS can do
this.. but so can IBM Basic ;)  I am savy with other db techniques like sql. My question is before I get too far along with this project, is it safe

icon1.gif   "New User" option does not work when Authentication=Webserver, posted by Jan Just Keijser on Fri May 29 09:27:32 2020 
Our setup uses "Authentication=Webserver" + no automatic user registration. Thus, logbook admins should add a user by clicking "Config" 
and then "New user". However, no matter what they fill in in the "new user " dialog, as soon as they hit "Save" an error
pops up saying that their username (the admin one, not the new one) already exists. I found the following code:
