Hello,

   Thank you for such a great piece of software!

   When displaying the entries in a log book with Summary view, ELCode is not processed in 'Text'. I know there
is an option called 'Allow HTML", but is there something similar for decoding ELCode in the Summary 'Text' field?

Thank you again,
   - Dan

Decoding HTML (or ELCode which translates to HTML) in the summary field is difficult, since the text is 
truncated. 
Assume you have some code like

Text
<b>Text
  <i>Text
----- cut here
</i>
</b>

Sot he bold <b> and italics <i> tags are opened, but closed after the cutting line. In that case the whole page 
might render wrongly, because everything after the summary text will be displayed in bold and italics. To fix this I 
would have to scan the HTML code and close all open tags "by hand". But since there are very many possibilities, 
especially if one used multi-column tables, this is almost impossible without writing my own HTML parser which is 
beyond the scope of elog. So the only clean solution I have found so far is to strip off all HTML formatting and 
just showing plain text there.

That would be a lot of effort for very little gain. I appreciate your detailed response. 

Thank you,
   - Dan

When locks are enabled, users should see a pop-up window asking them to submit an entry if they edit an entry but then go away from that page or 
close the browser without submitting the changes.  However, it only appears as though this works when using the plain or ELCode editors.  When 
using the HTML editor, no such pop-up appears.

If possible, a fix for this would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,
Devin

Thanks for reporting this problem, I fixed it in SVN revision 2256.

Hi,

I use the following attribute definition:

Options <attribute> = <list> 

However, I am being limited by the list length limit of 100. I have 103 items, but I only see 100.

Could the limit be extended (to 200 for instance) ?

Thanks a lot for your help

Hi,

Here is what happens (I think) if E-log encounters a full file system where it keeps the user authorization file:

1. When a user connects, E-log will make a backup of the file. The backup will be corrupt since the file system is full.

2. E-log will modify the contents of the original file, and write it back. The file will be corrupt since the file system is full.

3. Now, both the backup and the normal file are corrupt and you cannot log on, until someone cleans up the file system and restores a valid copy of the file.

Would it be possible to fix this ? Like abort if step 1 is not successful. And restore the backup file if step 2 is not successful.

Thanks a lot for you help

After reading the OpenSSL Documentation:

The certificates must be in PEM format and must be sorted starting with the subject's certificate (actual client or
server certificate), followed by intermediate CA certificates if applicable, and ending at the highest level (root) CA.

The chain.crt has to be of the following format:

HOST CERTIFICATE
INTERMEDIATE CERTIFICATE
ROOT CERTIFICATE

Then it is working w/o problems
