Hi,

I was wondering if anybody else seen this problem and maybe has a solution. I use Elog version 2.7.5 rev. 2172 that I compiled from the tar.gz package on a Ubuntu PC. It is very strange that everything works fine except I can not view / download PDF attachments specifically. I can view / download images and I can download all sorts of file formats: xls, doc, ppt, etc. Viewing in the same window / tab or in a different one does not work. Saving the attachment produces a file empty file with the correct name! This is so strange, for example following a link from an image or any other attachment type works but if that link is a PDF file I get an empty page! When uploading a PDF file there a thumbnails that are generated, I do view the thumbnail but not the PDF itself! I didn't even managed to start a download on PDF attachment.

Any help would be appreciated!

 

This sounds to me like you have a problem on your browser. I know that Acrobat Reader sometimes causes problems. The current version always crashes my broswer, so I cannot display PDFs inline, I rather have to same them, and the open them for display. Maybe you have a simlar problem. Since you see the PDF thumbnails, I believe that the PDF operations indise ELOG are ok. Can you view PDFs from other websites? Have you tried another browser? Maybe on another computer?

Unfortunately no.

 

Well, I tinkered a bit with a journal entry display page and found that without having to suggest the flavor-of-the-month web design mantra of "replace table layout with CSS only",  just a few CSS tweaks can enable exactly what I am desiring.

For your consideration, here are the tweaks I made to get a fixed header and footer section with a scrollable journal entry section in the middle:

  1. moved the journal entry content and footer line (elog version info) out of the layout table structure, into their own div sections;
  2. in the style sheet, added attribute "position:fixed" to the "frame table" section;
  3. in the style sheet, added attribute sections for journal entry content and footer div sections:
    1. #content: overflow:auto;position:fixed;top:230px;bottom:30px;width:100%;
    2. #footer:  text-align:center;bottom:0;position:fixed;width:100%;

Now as I'm not a web designer by trade and not intimately familiar with CSS nuances, I used the time honored method of documentation lookup with trial and error.

In any case, it worked and displays exactly the way I wanted; please do consider this for a future elog release. 

 

Apparently you downloaded an ELOG page and modified it manually. Can you send me the modified page, it then would be easier for me to implement it (I can shorten "my" trial and error phase..)

 

Yes, you are correct, I did simply take a sample page from logs and tinker with the html and css file, with the changes enumerated previously.  I have attached the tweaked sample html elog log page and css file, along with a few of the standard elog png files to complete the page with some semblance of the normal display.

 

 

Thu Feb 19 18:18:20 2009  Did this suggestion ever get considered for implementation?

 

 

 

 

 Yes it's on my personal to-do list, but don't know when I will find some time.

  66214   Fri Feb 20 05:00:40 2009 Question mike ciancimike2.cianci@comcast.netQuestionWindowsV 2.7.5Append a routine entry

I am using the following commands to display the text of all of the entries at once (so that you can read them without having to click on each entry).

Display mode = threaded
Expand Default = 3

Problem is that the information on the page is packed so tightly together (no white space) that it can be hard to read. Especially with single line entries.

Is it possible to automatically append a new line to a routine entry?

THANK YOU for your assistances.

 Connect your PC to the internet and tell everybody the URL. Make sure the Windows Firewall allows remote access.

Also, on attachments, if I click on the attachment icon (paperclip) on the list page the URL encodes "/" as "%2f", e.g.

http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080/Change_Log/..%2FChange_Log%2F090205_123135%2FCHANGE_CONTROL_NOTICE_050209.doc and I get the following error:

"Invalid URL: Change_Log/..%2FChange_Log%2F090205_123135%2FCHANGE_CONTROL_NOTICE_050209.doc" .  If I then change all occurrences of "%2f" to "/" the link works.

 

You have an old version of elog, this bug has been fixed some time ago. Have a look for example at https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Linux+Demo/.

If you click on a peperclip there, the attachment is shown correctly. 

 Thanks - just downloaded and compiled the latest version and all is well
