This is on purpose. I have many people registered for the Forum. So when a 
notification is sent, it is not a good idea if everybody sees everybody 
else's mail addresses. Therefor I have 

Omit Email to = 1

in the config file. This way the "To:" field is omitted to "hide" the mail 
recipients from each other. Your mail client realizes that and fills in your 
own address automatically, that's why you only see yourself. Maybe you try 
that option, might help with your previous problem as well.

When you do a find in elog, records per page (some crazy large number - for 
your forum logbook, display 57 entries seem to cause the problem, then 
select last year (1 years worth of logs),(don't select printable)

the results appear way off the screen (the message body looks fine, but the 
title, etc extend way off the screen).

Printable doesn't have this problem.

I just noticed that the notifications I receive from your ELOG system, 
doesn't show anyone in the "TO:" section but myself.  Or is ELOG configured 
to only send myself a message?

Another Question:  Could ELOG be configured to send notifications as a Blind

Hi Stefan,

Many users have there email forward to Blackberry devices.  Although I 
wasn't aware, it appears the Blackberry has a limit (or maybe one was set) 
of how big the message can be (still checking for that though).

Previously, a modification was made that addressed the issue of slow ELOG 
response when saving the elog entry.   I think the change was for ELOG to 
generate one email and send to all the users designated to receive the 
notification.  This caused everyone to show up as "TO" addresses.

This change makes the Email header increase in size (length).  I guess the 
Blackberry counts the Header portion as part of the email size limit.

Any ideas?

Thanks, 
Eric

I think the first option is the better one, having the first columns data in 
the list be linkable for example i am using this to store customer 
configuration and the list needs to be in alphabetical order so it has to be 
the first column but needs to be linkable :)

Would be nice if you can specify which columns data has links as a flag or 
setting of some sorts, as opposed to either the first or all, but given a 
choice I would want the first column to be the linkable one 

My config looks like this

Display search = Customer Name, Account ID, Author, Date, #

I think the better option is first item (being the first column entries) all 
have links to the logbook entries (which is how it was in the previous 
version)

I resolved this problem, many thanks for your help

I revised the way links are placed into the summary table, so I could have 
lost some functionality (I did not try all config combinations since there 
are too many now). So I can fix your problem in two ways now: Either always 
have the first item in a list be a link, or have each item be the (same) 
link. What do you think is a better solution?

First question: Does your elog pages have color? If so, the default.css is 
loaded correctly. Otherwise your page would contain text but all would be 
white.

So I presume you see color, that means your default.css is loaded correctly. 
It can now be that your browser caches that stylesheet. I use MS Internet 
Explorer and Mozilla and a "reload" on the browsers refreshes the 
stylesheet, but you really have to press the "reload" button (or clear the 
browser cache). Have you tried that?

  206   Fri Feb 7 18:38:56 2003 Question Nicknikc@cnic.comQuestion  Lost features since upgrade to 2.3.0
Ive got 2 issues which I cant see to resolve I was wondering if anyone can 
help.

Problem 1 - Since upgrading to version 2.3.0 I seem to have lost the some 
functionality explained below.  When i first log into my logbook (i only 
have a single one) it defaults to the summary view and the first field is 
one called Customer Name as opposed to # as i wanted the list sorted by 
this field, the link for that logbook entry is no longer available on the 
first field (being Customer Name) but only on the # field), however if you 
use Summary threaded view the whole line is a link.

Is there a flag or setting to the make the first field a link?


Problem 2 - no matter what i try in the config file i cannot get elogd to 
use stylesheets ive tried specifying and even editing and removing the 
default.css style sheet i downloaded but it just seems to ignore its there.

Any help or advice ??????
