No, '.txt' would definitely not be enough for me. I'm using elog to log all
administration of our network. In many cases, I simply attach a configuration
file. All those files are plain ASCII and none of them end in '.txt' - and I
would most definitely like them to be displayed inline like they are now. In
fact, this change was the main reason for me to upgrade to 2.5.4
Maybe a configuration option or a "display attachment" button would be the
best solution, then?
Cheerio,

So to make everybody happy, it would probably be enough not to display inline any
*.ps file, is that right? Is there any other ASCII format, which should not be
displayed? PDF is binary, so it won't be displayed. What about long C files? Most
people want to see them. In the recent version there is the "Hide attachment"
link which can be clicked to not display an attachment inline. Mabe there should
be a "Hide default = 0|1" config option... |

I think there should be size limit. Imagine a multi MB text file (whatever it is;
elogd.c is already more than 1/2 MB and is likely to increase due to your
excellent support). A client on an ISDN line would have to wait
several minutes and during this time elogd is busy and no other client can connect
(correct?). Of course, if somebody really wants to see this file then there is
nothing to be done, but likely someone is flipping throught the messages using
to arrows on top to find the right entry....
So a configurable size limit seems appropriate, from which on
only 'Display attachment' is displayed. And/Or, for files
exceeding this limit, the first N (new config option) lines could be displayed.
But this should only influence ASCII files. E.g. the behaviour for jpeg files
should not change, which is controlled by 'Hide default'. Maybe a 'Display/Hide
defaut extension' option, where the extensions are listed that are to be displayed
is another idea, in addition to a 'Max Display ASCII inline size' option,
which can be set to zero to disable it altogether.
In any case, whatever you think is best.
Cheers, Heiko

| Mike Stolove | mstolove@rogers.com | Bug report | Linux | 2.5.4-5 | deleting the sole single entry in log causes crash with xrealloc | When creating new logbooks, I will create a single entry to test the

single entry and create a new one based on the revised config.
elogd will crash every time upon deleting that single entry with an
xrealloc error. Here are the syslog entries leading up to the crash:

So I assume all rss reader parsing the file with the MS XML parser shall also

| Rich Persaud | dev2id at yahoo dot com | Bug report | All | 2.5.4-6 | BUG: lost entry data | After THREE tries to enter a long detailed list of questions, all have been
replaced by just one: why do ELOG textareas and entry forms lose all data
if the browser goes back/forward? Or if a submission causes an error?
Other forms in other applications don't have this kind of data loss.
Submitting this now before I lose it again. Will submit rest of questions
as separate entries. |

I use following Javascript to populate the date:
function submit_day(day)
{
opener.document.form1.d3.value = "24";
opener.document.form1.m3.value = "11";
opener.document.form1.y3.value = "2004";
window.close();
}
which workes everywhere except in Konqueror. If you tell me how to convince
Konqueror to accept this, I'm happy to put it into the elog code. |
