Have you tried MOptions ... which gives you check boxes where more than one can be selected?
I presume you have, but you really would prefer a multi-selection box instead of multiple check boxes  . Well, let's make a deal: if you explain everybody how to do a selection in a multi-select box (with all the Shift-Click, CTRL-Click, and this under different operating systems), I will implement it  |

a multiple selection box it's a standard web tool .. if one is not able to use its browser is not an elog problem IMHO 
My request is becouse having a number of user (say 20) makes the checkbox solution very very nasty .. again, it's a choice you give to the smart user .. others simply will not notice any change in elog |

I must change the access rights for all Folders, remove the user everyone and set the
Rights only to defined groups .
Now I can see following Event ID
Event Type: Information
Event Source: ELOG
Event Category: None
Event ID: 0
Date: 20.07.2005
Time: 08:14:24
User: N/A
Computer: SNDSRV1
Description:
The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( ELOG ) cannot be found.
The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. The following information is part of the event: Cannot stat() config file; No such file or directory.
My question now. Have someone see the same Problem ?

charset specified in elog.conf has no effect [updated], posted by cunnilinux on Sun Aug 7 17:16:42 2005
|
well, here's the problem that i had: my charset (koi8-u) was specified in elog.conf for every logbook, but this had no effect, and all elog pages continued tu appeared as iso-8859-1 (which is the default)
when i specified charset in the global section, the problem's gone away.
2do: i think it's worth testing how does it work whet charset specified for a separate logbook overrides globally specidied charset
elog version that is in use: 2.5.7 from debian sarge 3.1 r0a powerpc |

ELOG repository moved from CVS to Subversion, posted by Stefan Ritt on Fri Oct 7 17:18:32 2005
|
The elog repository has been moved from CVS to Subversion for various reasons. Those people who accessed the CVS repository in the past now have to do it in one of two different ways:
- Use the new ViewCVS gateway. This gateway now can also directly produce tarballs for the current repository snapshot
- Use anonymous Subversion access:
svn checkout svn+ssh://svn@savannah.psi.ch/afs/psi.ch/project/meg/svn/elog/trunk elog
svn@midas.psi.ch's password: svn
(you might have to enter the password several times...)
svn checkout svn+ssh://svn@savannah.psi.ch/afs/psi.ch/project/meg/svn/mxml/trunk mxml
svn@midas.psi.ch's password: svn
(you might have to enter the password several times...)
If there is any problem accessing the new repository, please let me know. |

Re: Logbook aliases, posted by Yoshio Imai on Wed Dec 14 11:40:54 2005

Ok, we will try this.
In our case, the "symlink"-type logbook might have been nice because of our daily backup routines. If we move the data of the old logbook to the newly created one, the backup process would first need to upload all logbook data to the backup server under the new directory name and then delete those under the old name.
In our case this is not so much of a problem, because the logbooks are small (100MB), but maybe you can add this to the wishlist if others request the same... (We could try to adjust the backup procedure, but I don't know how well this would work).
Anyway, thanks for the work!
P.S. What do you think about the idea of a "Go to page"-button for the single entry view? |
New ELOG version 2.6.0, posted by Stefan Ritt on Thu Dec 15 13:08:35 2005 
|
Dear ELOG users,
I'm happy to announce the release of ELOG version 2.6.0. After a long period of beta testing, all functions are now sufficiently stable for a public release. The major new feature is the introduction of the ELCode tags. They are similar to the well known BBCode tags, and let you format an elog entry. It is now also possible to embed inline images in an elog entry  , which are even sent in email notifications.
So have fun,
Stefan |

Shell substitution, especially interesting for running online experiments, posted by Stefan Ritt on Tue Dec 20 09:18:19 2005
|
Shell substitution has been introduced in an experimental state of the current SVN version of ELOG. It woks such that the subsititution list can contain $shell(<argument>) commands. The <argument> is passed to the shell of the operating system and the result is captured and subsituted. This is handy for online experiments, where one wants to pass information automatically to elog. Assume that there is a file /tmp/runnumber containing the current run number of the experiment. All one needs to put the current run number in an attribute "Run number" is the following line in the configuration file:
Preset Run number = $shell(cat /tmp/runnumber)
This subsitution works also for the main text body. Following option will put a calendar of the current month into the text body:
Preset text = $shell(cal)
note that shell subsitution works both on Windows and Unix, the "cat" and "cal" commands are however only present under Unix, but "cat" can be replaced with its Windows counterpart "type". |
