Request: can the comment for a log book be put in the status bar on hover, posted by Tim Iskander on Wed Jul 6 16:02:30 2005

We have several logbooks running here with somewhat cryptic names. The comment field for the
logbook describes its intent well enough, so the thought was that the comment could show up in the
status bar (or tooltip) when you hover over the logbook name in the tabs at the top of the page.
___ yea 
___ nea

I added a tooltip to the logbook showing the comment field. The status bar is a bit difficult since it requires Javascript and is not supported by all browsers. But I hope the tooltip is good enough. The modification is in CVS, you can try it at the forum.

Thanks Stefan! That was exactly what I was looking for! |

ELOG Command Line Utility, posted by Tim Fowler on Wed Feb 9 15:40:12 2005
|
I am trying to use the command line utility elog. Some of the attributes
that I have setup are multiple options. When I run the command line
utility to create a new message, any attribute that is setup with multiple
options will not be filled in. The syntax I am using is as follows:
elog -h localhost -p 8080 -l Lab -a "Site=xxxx" -a "Area=System" -
a "Priority=Low" -a "Shift=1" -a "Status=Open" -m text.txt
Site and Area are defined in the config file as MOptions. Is there a way
to use this feature with multiple options on attributes with the
attributes = to one or more variables? |

I can't see anything in the admin configuration syntax guide and the HTML default = 2 option no longer seems to work. |
The HTML default option has been replaced by the Default encoding option, with which one can set the default encoding style to plain text (Default encoding = 1).

Although the elcode buttons appear highlighting text and clicking on them doesn't actually do anything although it works fine in my browser when using these elog forums. I don't get any errors in mozilla but trying it in IE under cxoffice gives an "error on page" message in the bottom of the browser. |
The ELCode editor requires the JavaScript file elcode.js to be present in the scripts directory under your elog root directory. Future installations will handle this correctly. |
The installation did not include scripts directory. Where can I download the elcode.js file? |

I said future installations will handle this. This feature is still in beta becaus it's not finished completely. You can get the elcode.js from CVS.
