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

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

| Gernot Buselmeier | Gernot.Buselmeier@gefanuc.com | Question | All | 2.7.3 | Escape emoticons in ELCODE | Hi,
I want to write a text like "John:Doe" in ELCODE. However the ":D" is converted to a LOL emoticon. I tried various ways to escape this. One solution I found was entering "John\:Doe". However, the upper-case D is converted to lower-case: the result reads "John:doe".
Thanks for an answer and many thanks for providing ELOG.

| Erik Iverson | eiverson@ornl.gov | Question | All | 2.7.3 | Pre-populate Attachments in URL | Is there a way to pre-populate the new entry window with one or more attachments? Per the documentation, this is easy to do with attributes, i.e., http://localhost:8070/demo/?cmd=New&pauthor=joe&ptype=Info as a URL or bookmark will do it. I'd like to do the same thing with attachments, for example http://localhost:8070/demo/?cmd=New&pauthor=joe&ptype=Photograph&attfile1=picture1.jpg&attfile2=picture2.jpg might prepopulate two attachments, giving me an edit window all ready to enter the brief description represented by the two pictures. |

| Stefan Ritt | stefan.ritt@psi.ch | Question | All | 2.7.3 | Re: Pre-populate Attachments in URL |
That would be nice, I want this, too! But unfortunately your browser does not allow this for security reasons, and I found no way around. Assume you look to a page on the internet, and it pre-populates a file selector with something like /etc/passwd or any other sensitive file. Then this box gets hidden by some CSS style so you don't see it. So as soon as you click on something on that page, your sensitive files gets submitted, and you don't want that. Therefore it's impossible to pre-populate file selector boxes.

| Terry L | trflin@yahoo.com | Question | Windows | 2.7.3 | Syntax for conditional list display | Good Morning,
I would like to limit the ability to edit certain attributes in an ELOG logbook, depending on the user who is logged in. I.e. if "guest" or a standard "login user" is logged in, I only want to allow the user to edit "attribute1" & "attribute2" of say, 5 attributes. However, if an Admin user or specific user, say "Terry" or "Bob" is logged in, I want to allow ALL 5 attributes to be editable. To expand on this, I may want to even limit the visibility of the attributes as well.
I've read though "Condition Attributes" section of the help page, but it is not clear to me how/if I can do this? Is that section even relevant to what I want to accomplish?
Can anyone provide some guidance?
Thank you for your time & help!
Sincerely,
Terry |

| Edmund Hertle | edmund.hertle@kit.edu | Question | Windows | 2.7.3 | Re: Syntax for conditional list display | Hey Terry,
I don't think this is possible, since in general you cannot define config settings in a way that it would only affect specific users. For example, you also cannot have different themes for different users (as stated here: https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/68112 )
Cheers
