Actually the

style="white-space: normal"

makes the difference, the <div> is not necessary at all!

But I'm not sure that "white-space: normal" is what we want. All manual line breaks in an entry are collapsed and you get just one text block without any new line. See here

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/white-space

I guess we want "white-space: pre-wrap" which keeps the old line breaks.

You can try that out by changing elog.css:

--- a/themes/default/elog.css
+++ b/themes/default/elog.css
@@ -475,6 +475,7 @@ td {

 .messagepre {
   font-family:'lucida console',courier,monospace;
+  white-space:pre-wrap;
 }

and see the effect. If you like it, just keep it. No need to recompile elogd.cxx.

Yep. You're right. Thanks!

I have an issue where not all users are able to log into their sessions and they are still settling on the login page

Hello,
    Is it possible to have a drop down list with commas in the options.  
For instance, if you want to have a attribute "CityState" you would 
probably want a comma between the City and State name.  Since the Options 
are separated by commas, it turns into two different options.  I dont know 
if there is a way to do this or if this is a bug?

i work on Windows2000

part of my elog.cfg:

    Passwort file = c:\elog\passwd.txt
    Self register = 1
    Guest user commands = config, admin, logout

file system:

    - i created an emty file with name passwd.txt

problem:

    - if i use the link "Register as new user" on login, it does not work.
    - if i login as guest user and choose the menu config, it only 
    display  the attributes Login_name, Full_name and Email.    
    So i kann not create user.

what should i do ?
what are my mistakes ?

Can you attache as sample password file ?

in Unix:
i fixed the problem by defining a password file entry like 'user1::::'. 
then i defined 'admin user = user1' in elogd.cfg.
then i connected with login name 'user1' and created new user (as admin).

in Windows2000:
if i do this steps and i save the new user, it fails. the server service 
crash down.
