  2218   Thu Apr 26 16:43:45 2007 Question Kevin McCartykmccarty@princeton.eduRequestLinux2.6.3-1764Is there (planned) support for <A NAME> and <HR /> in ELCODE?
Hello,

I am wondering if there is any support (or if not, if it is planned) for inserting HTML <a name> and <hr /> tags via ELCODE. This would be useful for long log messages in order to provide a table of contents and divide them into clear sections. If this support already exists, I'm afraid it is not obvious to me how to access it in ELCODE. If it does not yet exist, would you consider a patch for it?

As a related issue, to support <a name> usefully, it will also be necessary for ELCODE to support things like [url=#tag], which it currently converts to <a href = "http:///#tag"> instead the expected result of <a href = "#tag">.

(Please send me replies also by email at kmccarty AT princeton DOT edu, as I don't check this forum often.)

Thanks for writing ELOG; our group has been using it very productively on our server for the last few weeks.

best regards,

Very good idea. The horizontal line
is already implemented via [LINE] and the anchor tag will soon follow.

I implemented anchor tags. You can write something like

[ANCHOR]top[/ANCHOR]

and you can then reference it either by directly entering

http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/2223#top

or by entering simply

elog:2223#top

To make your table of contents, you can put a complete URL tag like

[URL=http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/2223#top]Goto top[/URL]

or inside the same entry simply

[URL=#top]Goto top[/URL]

which will be shown as

Goto top

I have added these link again at the bottom of this entry so you can try it with this entry directly.

We followed the simple download instructions. Our existing logbook entries
are still visible. Nothing was lost or touched in our /usr/local/elog directory.
Is there some step we missed?

The location of top.html has been changed from the ELOG root down into the loogbook directory. If you want to keep it in the original location, you have to specify the full path. See the documentation for where to put the file for "Top text".

I would also like the option to add additional email addresses on the fly.


There is a simple way to accomplish this. Define a new attribute, let's call it "cc". Then add to your config file following statement:
Email all = $cc

In you entry form, you can now enter comma-separated email addresses in the CC filed, to which a notification will be sent.

Is there a way to suppress the listing of all logbooks on the New User Registration page? We've got 100 logbooks (one for each server, cluster node, or major software package). The long list makes it difficult for users to find the bottom of the registration page, and no user needs to subscribe for automatic e-mail notification for every logbook.

Thanks,

Mark
