I found that this is indeed an Internet Explorer bug, since it works with all other browsers I tested. There is however a
workaround: I added some code to the current version of elog which shows a "Search" button whenever the page is accessed
through the Internet Explorer. Then the behavior of hitting <return> works again. The change is in revision #1970 and will
be contained in the next release.

Thanks again for your help!

Hello,

one idea for improvement. When using the option 'Icon comment' this comment is shown when creating a new entry and moving with he mouse over the icon but it is not displayed in full or summary view. In full or summary view the filename is shown. Not really important, but perhaps an improvement.

Thanks!

Uwe

I implemented this request in SVN revision #1974.

Thank you!

Hi,

We've defined a "LastEdit" attribute for some of our logs so that we can indicate that an entry has been revised, and when that was done. 

From our config:

Attributes =  Last Edit, etc etc
.
.
.
Preset Last Edit =$date
Locked Attributes = Last Edit
Subst on edit Last Edit = $date

This works fine, but when we sort the LastEdit column, the dates are sorted alphabetically. Is there a way to tell Elog to treat this particular attribute 
as a date when sorting?

You are missing:

Type Last Edit = datetime

which will tread the "Last Edit" attribute as a date/time combination. Actually it's stored 
internally in seconds since Jan 1st 1970, so sorting will work right. The only caveat is that
when you edit an entry, the "Last Edit" is displayed really in seconds since 1970, but I will
fix this in the next release.

I just fixed this in SVN revision #2010. If you would have filled out which operating system you use
with elog, I could tell you how to upgrade.
