Obviously there is: this logbook does add line breaks?!?

Maybe it is only a problem with entries made by the "elog" command?
I'll find it out and re-post.

Okay, I found two ways to add very long lines:
- if the very long line does not contain a space then this will screw the printout.
- if the line has been added as plain text using the elog command, there will be no line breaks added.

It would be nice if the elog command would have an option to break lines to a maximum line length.
But for the moment I'll just modify the applications that make use of the elog command.

Yepp, this is a (missing) feature of the elog command. Can you pre-process your messages outside of it, or do I have to add code to elog to do that?

Here is the problem:

[url=http://example.com?arrays[]=v1&arrays[]=v2]click here[/url]

How can I escape [] inside url tag?

\[\] seems not working.

The URL encoding of ']' as '%5D' appears to work:

[url=http://example.com?arrays[%5D=v1&arrays[%5D=v2]click here[/url]

Cheers, Andreas

That tweak works!

Thanks

A new version 3.1.2 of elog has been released today and can be retrieved through the normal download section. Since it fixes some vulnerabilities, it is recommended to update to this version.

Is it possible for an administator to reset a user's password? 

Thanks,
