Hi,

I am using syntax like (from the doc):

Display Telephone = <a href="http://any.company.com/telbook.cgi?search=$Name">$Name's telephone number</a>

Until yesterday this was interpreted as HTML.

After upgrading to 2.7.7, I still get a valid link but the full HTML code is also displayed: the user sees
''<a href="http://any.company.com/telbook.cgi?search=myname">myname's telephone number</a>''
where he should only see:
''myname's telephone number''

I am 99% sure this is a consequence of the upgrade. Is there a way to get the original behaviour back?
Thanks a lot

 I have more precise information about the nature of this issue, which concerns the display of E-logs

In the previous version 2.7.6, E-log would generate HTML like this:

td class="attribvalue">
<a href="https://edms.cern.ch/camms/plsql/d7i_report_CV_WO_VIEW.form_7?event=15403690&button=Search">15403690</a>&nbsp;</td>

In the latest version 2.7.7, E-log generates HTML like this (for the same attribute):

<td class="attribvalue">
&lt;a href="<a href="https://edms.cern.ch/camms/plsql/d7i_report_CV_WO_VIEW.form_7?event=15575045&amp;button=Search">https://edms.cern.ch/camms/plsql/d7i_report_CV_WO_VIEW.form_7?event=15575045&amp;button=Search</a>"&gt;15575045&lt;/a&gt;&nbsp;</td>

You need

Allow HTML = 1

in your configuration file. See the documentation for details. This featue is new in 2.7.7.

Thanks a lot. In fact I did not read the 2.7.7 version of the documentation, which I should have done.

Have a good aftenoon

icon1.gif   Fix text prevents user from editing text during creation, instead of just edit, posted by Allen on Mon Aug 24 21:47:14 2009 

When we set Fix text = 1, according to the syntax, this should prevent users from modifying the text field during an edit, but it looks like it is blocking access at both time of edit and creation, meaning you can never add anything to it.  Is that the intended functionality?

Thanks for reporting that bug. I realized that this was not working at all since a long time. I fixed it in SVN revision 2245.

When Chrome came out, I vaguely remember that there were some initial problems, but they have been fixed since about a year. But I see you are using a pretty old version of ELOG, so please consider upgrading.
