Sombody used an invalid formed email address, like user<at>domain<dot>com, on which the SMTP server complained. I would like to note here that the email addresses registered in this forum are not published in any way, so there is no risk to get spam from that (except the normal elog notifications, which can be turned off easily). |

| Alex H | alex@synergie-inf.com | Request | | 2.5.8-6 | password encryption | Hi Stefan,
I have found a little problem with elog. I'am using ELOG V2.5.8-6. When I'am on the logon page,
I type my Login and password and hit "submit", in the bottom of IE, we can show my password without encryption, it can be dangerous. I have made a screenshot to explain my problem better.
Could you fix it for the next release ?
Thanks a lot.

| Andy | nekto@myway.com | | | | Problem with auto-increment attribute | I have a very strange problem with auto-increment attribute. Here is a part of my configuration:
Attributes = Access ID, Harvest Date, Access, Species, PI, Submission date, Stain, Comments
Preset Access ID = MI-05-%03d
Type Harvest date = date
Type Submission date = date
I tried to add new entry, and it's Access ID is MI-05-001. But when I'm adding another entries,
there Access ID is MI-05-006
I found only one mention of using increment in documentation.
What I'm doing wrong? |

Unfortunately there is no real way around that. If a password is entered into a text box, it is always transferred in plain text (which means that in security-sensive installations one should always use SSL together with elog). I encrypt it on the server side and do an immediate redirect which "hided" the plain password, but if your connection is slow, you might see it for a moment. Unless nobody has a clever idea of how to prevent this, we're out of luck. |

I switched the login page to the HTTP "POST" method, where arguments are not passed in the URL.
The new version is under CVS. Can you try if the behaviour is better now? I upgraded also the ELOG forum, so you can try there as well. |

| Dinesh Bapat | dinesh.bapat@gmail.com | Question | | | Summary page | Hi,
This might be a stupid question.
But I was unable to fix it. Hence asking for help. I have set config as
List Display = ID, Author, Type, When, Subject
But "Summary" page of my e-log continues to display additional column "Text". Kindly advise how to hide this last column. Also, is it possible to assign % width for each of these columns (ID, Author, Type, When, Subject)
Thank you
Regards
Dinesh |
