Usual problem for me. There is no elogd binary file in the tar.gz file. 
I remember you used to include it. :)

  564   Fri Jun 25 20:09:21 2004 Question Ulrich Trüsselulrich.truessel@familienhund.chQuestionAll2.5.3Formatting parameters for attributes
I have some problems of understanding how the "Format <attribute>" parameter
is working. It may be, that there was a similar question in the forum, but I
didn't find it. I'm sorry if I come back with an old question.

I would like to have 2two attributes in the same line. As ex. PersonName,
PersonCity.

If I understand the handbook correctly, it should be posslible with "Format
<attribute> = 1". However, I'm not able to use the "Format <attribute>"
correctly because I do not understand how to use it correctly in the cfg file.

Is there a possibilty of an example by Stafan or does anybody else already
use this feature successfuly and is able to post a example here?

Thank's a lot!

Hi,

Is it possible to restrict the display of logbook entries to the entries 
created by the currently logged-in user?

I'm thinking of using the ELOG system in a school laboratory environment: 
students must write entries in the logbook about their excersises, but I 
would like that students can not "see" what other students have written. To 
make it even more complicated, I would like that students can see their own 
entries and the teacher entries.....

Is something like this possible?

Thanks in advance

One way would be to create a seperate logbook for each student including the
teacher. It should then be fairly simple to set up the permissions however you
would like. For a large class it might be a bit cumbersome to set it up this way.

  568   Fri Jul 2 22:20:37 2004 Question Todd Corsatcorsa@bnl.govQuestionLinux2.5.3Locking the Text field
Is there a way to disable editing of the textarea, but still allow editing 
of other fields in the entry? (e.g. Fixed Attributes Edit = Text)
Also, is the data entered in that field accessible through a variable like 
$author? I tried $text, but that doesn't seem to work.

Thanks,
-Todd

By the way... Nice work on this. It has a lot of good features.
  569   Tue Jul 6 13:08:51 2004 Question Geogorilla@yahoo.comQuestionWindows2.5.3Admin right
HI 
I have setup top group in my elog . I will want to restrict the different 
admin user on the global and the global on top groups .
But however i am not able to use the configuration on "admin user" on the 
global portion to strict admin of top group to access the main global 
config .
Did i configure it wrongly or is there a way?

And for email notification , is there a way which i can select who to email 
it to ? like check box etc.

And is there a way which i can setup the summary page to refresh every 
15mins , so that new entry can be shown ?

And can i make the message id unique , when i move the messages from one 
log book to another log book , the messages id change accorddingly based on 
the number or messages . Anyway for me to make it fixed even i moved to 
another log book , i need the running number still .

Sorry for the many questions
Thanks for your help
  570   Tue Jul 6 23:37:02 2004 Question Glevineg@med.govt.nzQuestionLinux | Other2.5.3ELOG & Selection Page
Hello to all,

I'm trying to get ELOG to run several separate logbooks which will
eventually have their own password/user files and other little things.
The problem I have is I want to have a main selection type page so when a
user enters ELOG they see this page with links on it to main logbook groups.

So, for my example I'd have a main page INDEX1.HTML which has links to:
  /Server_Logbooks
  /Other_Logbooks

but I want those top groups to just show standard ELOG generated logbook
list once you select a link on index1.html page.
Unfortunately "Selection page = index1.html" if defined in [global] just
gets used everywhere, so once I click on a link to go to
http://elog.blah.internal/Server_Logbooks it just shows the same index1.html
selection page. So I never get to the actual logbook list...
I could make separate selection pages for each top logbook group,
but that means that I have to alter those HTML files every time I add or
remove a logbook. I'd ruther have ELOG generate those pages on the fly.

Is there any way to do this?
Could I tell ELOG not to use a selection page at all for a particular group
of logbooks, and just show the logbook list.

Thank you very much.

GL.

This forum uses that feature. As you can see, if you display a single entry, the
author, subject etc. are on a single line. This is achieved with

Format Author = 1
Format Author email = 1
Format Category = 1
Format OS = 1
Format ELOG Version = 1

Note that in the entry form, each attribute is on a separate line no matter what
the format specifiers are. The single line option only works for the display page.
