  elogd.c shows the same warnings.

  This works OK.
 
icon4.gif   BUG: lost entry data, posted by Rich Persaud on Wed Nov 24 00:17:45 2004 
After THREE tries to enter a long detailed list of questions, all have been 
replaced by just one:  why do ELOG textareas and entry forms lose all data 
if the browser goes back/forward?  Or if a submission causes an error?  
Other forms in other applications don't have this kind of data loss.

Submitting this now before I lose it again.  Will submit rest of questions 
as separate entries.
icon5.gif   Attribute Negative Search, posted by Rich Persaud on Wed Nov 24 00:42:10 2004 
Is there any way to search for all attributes _except_ a certain value?
icon4.gif   Konqueror and Calendar widget, posted by Rich Persaud on Wed Nov 24 00:44:09 2004 
Date selection from the calendar widget does not work in Konqueror.  

Clicking on a date results in year being populated, but month and day are 
blank.
icon3.gif   Display links for multiple-option attributes, posted by Rich Persaud on Wed Nov 24 00:45:43 2004 
Can "Display" links work with multiple options? 

"ABC | DEF" is currently one link.

Ideally, it would be two links, each formatted per the "Display" string.
icon3.gif   Non-wildcard or numeric search for numeric attribute, posted by Rich Persaud on Wed Nov 24 00:48:17 2004 
Is there a way to disable wildcard matching in searches?

A search for "1" returns "1" and "10" and "11".  

Is there a way to perform an explict match?

Could there be a numeric match if the attribute type is numeric?
icon3.gif   Multi-parent relationships between logbook items, posted by Rich Persaud on Wed Nov 24 00:50:27 2004 
Could there be a multi-value option for free text fields, e.g. comma-
separated?  This would allow multi-parent relationships between log items. 

E.g. specifying 12, 15 as a value would create unique Display links 
for "12" and "15", based on the Display specification for that attribute.

This would be like "multiple fixed options", for the purpose of formatting.

Really strange. I tried with Mozilla Firefox and IE 6.0 and none of them lost
the entry data. What browser did you use? As far as I learned, data only
vanishes on pages which have an HTTP header containing "Expires: ..." with a
date in the past. But I made sure that the entry form does not contain this.

Please refreain in the future from sending many small entries. People being

In worst case, write your posting using an editor and do copy-and-paste into a
