Hi Stefan,

Obviously it's not magic but my inability to explain. I've attached a quick jpg of the file structure we use. So for every project we just repeat the file structure. It then becomes a browser based interface for our engineers, inspectors, project managers etc. so via the network they can access the data anywhere onsite.

Elog is used in an iframe on the manrec page. Here we record several logs (a record of everything we do, a record of test equipment, tools used, harnesses, connectors made and disconnected, etc. and what i'm now trying to achieve a document record / check list).

Now in the data directory we store hundreds of documents from procedures, circuit diagrams, mechanical drawings, parts lists, test reports and data, inspection reports, down to consumables like what type of cloth and liquid was used to wipe down a cable.

So the bulk of documents can fit on to an 8G memory stick, the only section that doesn't fit is the test data.  So when we need to move off site, or supply this data to a subcontractor we copy the contents (minus the test data) on to a memory stick, when the memory stick is returned we simply synchronise it back to the network. So the only links that would fail to work off site are links to test data - which we are not worried about.

Now, any new person working on the project needs to review the check list (hopefully the new elog if i can get it to work) part of this check list  / document record could say something like - carry out inspection, refer to drawing <href link> now this is where the problem occurs, as when the files are on the site based machine, we know the file structure is on the M:Drive; however when the memory stick is now plugged into a subcontractors machine / laptop we have no control of the drive allocation, so how can i get the link to the drawing to work?

When they finish the job required, they upload the data to the memory stick and state where.  ie inspection carried out - results passed see report "xyz" <href link>

I hope this now makes more sense

Kind regards

Terry

Dear all,

I wonder if anyone of you already tried to  change raw style in case of empty attribute value.

In my configuration file I have defined attribute "End date" (without quotation marks) and it's type is datetime.

How should I configure extra style for entries where this attribute doesn't have value.

My tries were:

Style End date = background-color:red

Style End date "" = background-color:red

Style End date " " = background-color:red

Style End date - = background-color:red

But they didn't work.

Any ideas?

This functionality was not implemented. I added it in SVN revision #2420, so it will be contained in the next release.

I would like to have different header for 'Text' internal attribute: e.g. an alias "Notes". So on the list page header of Text attribute column is Notes.

Is it already possible? I couldn't find it in Administrator's Guide. 

If not is it possible to add this feature?

 Hello,

Can anyone please send me, or publicly provide, working Ubuntu 10.10 binaries (64-bit) for ELOG?

I have compiled and installed the program. While the core functionalities are OK, I have run into irritating bugs in filtering and config editing that are not present in the online demo (but are in my local demo and logbook).

Hence I suspect compilation to be the cause.

For the curious:

• Saving the config within ELOG scrambles the elog.conf file
