 | Emiliano Gabrielli | AlberT@SuperAlberT.it | Request | All | | userlist multiple select | Here I am again 
My goal is to put a "Co-Authors" Attribute in my logbook, giving the possibility to other people in the control room to have credits about an entry... I added a "Co-Author" attribute, but It shold permit a "multliple" selection (a checkbox is not good) ... the perfect solution would be to add the attribute "multiple" to the <select> tag, and filling the elog Attribute value with a comma separated list of the selections ...
tnx in advance |

Have you tried MOptions ... which gives you check boxes where more than one can be selected?
I presume you have, but you really would prefer a multi-selection box instead of multiple check boxes  . Well, let's make a deal: if you explain everybody how to do a selection in a multi-select box (with all the Shift-Click, CTRL-Click, and this under different operating systems), I will implement it  |

Well, that's not the way condition attributes are supposed to work. They were designed to modify the new entry input mask, to have diefferent option lists depending on the value of an attribute. But conditional attributes do not have any meaning for normal display and for email notification. This would have to be implemented and is quite some work. So I would put following in your config:
Options Category = Info{1},Report{1},Problem{2},Other{1}
Preset Category = Info
Display Category = <img style="border:0; float:left; margin-right:5px" src="icons/$category.png">$category
{1}ROptions Level = Notice,Warning,Alert,Fixed
{1}Preset Level = Warning
{1}Display Level = <img style="border:0; float:left; margin-right:5px" src="icons/$level.png">$level
{2}Preset Level = N/A
Having N/A is not as nice as having this attribute not shown at all, but that's the only choice one has right now  .
Another thing: you maybe realized that putting <img> in the subject of your orignal entry results in a missing image. That's a nasty side effect of your wish to have any <img> interpreted as HTML. Of course you could argue that <img> is not a real HTML statement because the source is missing, but then another one will come and put there a subject like: "I want an <img src="bla.gif"> in my config" and bang, we are back to the same problem. So if anyone has a clever idea of how to solve this, please let me know. Maybe one should be able to put a "\" in front of any code (also the ELCode tags) to not interprete them by the system. But while this is maybe obvious for a C programmer or shell programmer, the normal user might not find this so obvious. |

IMHO the solution may be in allowing html code only in the cfg, not in the value of the field..
i.e., elog has to first allow html in the cfg attribute and then replace every $attribute with their values... this values as to be translated in html entities in order to solve the problem
in other wordsthe value of the attribute as to httl_encoded when displayed.. and the cfg line not
or I am loosing some point ? |

a multiple selection box it's a standard web tool .. if one is not able to use its browser is not an elog problem IMHO
My request is becouse having a number of user (say 20) makes the checkbox solution very very nasty .. again, it's a choice you give to the smart user .. others simply will not notice any change in elog |

Really? Can you point me to a common web site using this? I would really like to see how other people use this.

Ok, I put it on my wishlist. If more than one person asks for this, I will implement it. Unfortunately it's not only putting a multiple into the HTML page, it's also a different way how multiple selections are passed in the POST form and their decoding, so it will be an hour or two of work for me. |

I can't remember just now a web site using it .. what I mean is that "multiple" attribute for the "select" tag is a standard for the web (it's not an IE extension or so on ..) so every web browser implements it.
It's normally used, for example, when you fill a form describing your attitudes, here you can often choose from a select box a number of interest you are concerded.. but it is only an example

Yes I know, uhm... if you point me to the right piece of code to be adjusted I can see if I'll be able to do the job |
