In the Config Examples logbook you mentioned a forum.css.  Do you have a 
link to that css and others?

Thanks

I fixed that problem. The new version 2.3.7 released today contains the fix.

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

Thanks Ill grab it tomorrow and try it,

when is the new version out btw ?

Is it possible to make the logbook summary screen sort differently
 
For example on a customer name field it displays as follows :-

AEF
AXA
Abc
Acd
Ade
Aef
aaa
aab

Its sorting alphabetically but is putting upper case characters before 
their lower case equivalents, which in a customer list where lots of 
initials are used its making the list look non sorted rather than truely 
based on the character regardless of case.

Thanks in advance.

I added some code experimentally to avoid double editing. Whenever a message 
is edited, a "stop" sign is displayed in the message list next to the edited 
messages and a warning is issued on the single message display page. If the 
original editing has been given up (browser closed) one can just ignore this 
message. I prefer this solution in comparision with a real locking, since 
the mechanisms for unlocking a stale message by the administrator is not 
necessary. Get the newest code from CVS, get also themes/default/stop.gif to 
display the stop sign, and let me know what you think.

Thank you Stefan,
It's not that we wouldn't have access to the ELOGD server, it's the fact that 
we're trying to create our own dynamic selection page (with a more detailed 
overview of the content of different logbooks - such as the date of last 
logbook entry, number of entries in last week, month etc.) based on the 
information we send from ELOG to our SQL server. 

So in this case the user logs on to ELOGD (currently run on Linux) then will 
be redirected to the selection page on a Windows machine (ASP getting all 
necessary information from a MS SQL DB) and the dynamically created links 
refer back to the ELOGD Linux server. May seem a little too complicated but 
works fine.

I fixed that problem. Please get the updated version from CVS.
