Can someone please enter a comprehensive list of the commands eLog will honor. I'm trying to build a 'decent' start page and am not totally familiar with eLog just yet. Thanks Stefan for an awesome application. The documentation is really decent, too. I just have been unable to locate a list of all commands available.
Thanks in advance.

there's a link in the main elog web page.. it's under the Admin guide and it is the elog.cfg syntax guide


thanks for the advice. DuH on me, I just needed to read the syntax page a little more closely.

I wonder if there is any way to use the javascript 'window.status' method to accomplish this. It would be a nice addition when there are many logbooks.

  1231   Thu Jul 7 04:44:12 2005 Question Gary Claysonimppster@gmail.comRequestWindows2.6.0-betaNew Message Formatting and Default Settings
Hello All. Please Help! How can I turn off the formatting controls above the message text when making a new or reply entry? I included the flat 'Default Encoding = 1' in my config file, but it seems to have no effect. The log has been set up to suppress all email notification, as SMTP is not being used at my location (MS Exchange Server is being used). Also How can I turn off the icon selection panel to the left of a new message text box? And, finally, is it possible to turn off the Suppress Email notification checkbox AND not send emails? Forgive me for asking yet another - but the same question about turning off the Encoding buttons - Is there some method of setting I can enter into the config file to turn off the Encoding and default it to text entry only?

Forgive this entry being so long, I'm new to using ELOG; Thanks Stefan for an incredible application. Well thought out and elegant. Keep up the good work.

Gary ;->

PS Reworking the source code, then recompiling it, is not a viable option for me at this time.

I can't see anything in the admin configuration syntax guide and the HTML default = 2 option no longer seems to work.


The HTML default option has been replaced by the Default encoding option, with which one can set the default encoding style to plain text (Default encoding = 1).

Also is there anything in particular that you have to do to get the elcode editor to work. Although the elcode buttons appear highlighting text and clicking on them doesn't actually do anything although it works fine in my browser when using these elog forums. I don't get any errors in mozilla but trying it in IE under cxoffice gives an "error on page" message in the bottom of the browser.


The ELCode editor requires the JavaScript file elcode.js to be present in the scripts directory under your elog root directory. Future installations will handle this correctly.


The installation did not include scripts directory. Where can I download the elcode.js file?

Emiliano Gabrielli wrote:
There is a little difference in the way elog treats attachment's display in list and single message view...
It has to be, but some beaviours can be seen as bugs:

  • this is a real bug (see attachment).. if a file is referred inside the text (as shown in elcode docs) it is correctly not shown when in single message view, but it remains visible both inline and as attachment in the full list view
  • it would be nice for the user having, as in the single message view, the possibility of show or hide a single or all the attachements of a single message ..


I removed attachment displays for all views if the image is referenced inline. A potential problem is that it might confuse people. During submission (and later during editing), they see an attachment at the bottom, but the link at the botton is not visible in normal display. If they want to extract an inline image into a file, they have to know that there is a "Save image as..." in their browser. So let's see how many people complain.
