This problem must be specific to NS 4.76, I don't have it on IE, NS 6, Mozilla
1, Opera etc. Maybe you should upgrade. Anybody else made this observation? |

When an entry is submitted with an required attribute missing one gets to
the resubmit page. When you the click your browsers back button all
previously filled attribute field are blank.
Is there a workaround to get the old text back?
used versions:

Netscape 4.76

I removed also scandir() in the current version (right now only in CVS). The
official release of 2.1.0 is planned for next week. |

| Stefan Ritt | stefan.ritt@psi.ch | Question | | | New beta version of ELOG, testing required |
Hi,
I added many features to ELOG recently, but before making a new release, I
would like some beta testing. In addition to the current modes of
operation, a logbook can be configured to require a user to be logged in to
submit new messages. If not logged it, one can only read messages. To
obtain a new account, one can do a self-registering. In this process, one
can also enter the email address which is then filled in automatically on
new logbook entries.
So please go to the forum logbook, create a new account for yourself and
try things out. If there is any problem, please let me know.
Many thanks in advance, Stefan Ritt. |

Having multi-line attributes would be pretty difficult since it would break
the way the database works (one attribute at a line). So for now, you have to
use the text box and the reply functionality to deal with problems and fixes
(like for this entry). |

| mo | msheikh25@hotmail.com | Question | | | Scroll box for attributes |
Hello,
If you have the text box turned off so you only enter attributes, is it
possible to have a couple of attributes that have small scroll through text
boxs of a couple of lines rather than just one line? Like not as big as
the regular text box but something small to be able to post a couple of
lines in and if it gets bigger then you scroll down. For instance if you
are posting a problem and a solution just have one small text box for the
problem and one for the solution.
Thanks,
Mo |

I found a problem in the elogd.c code, which might cause that proplem
sometimes. The fix is available from
http://midas.psi.ch/cgi-bin/cvsweb/elog/elogd.c
If you need a windows executable, please let me know.

That should not be necessary, since elogd reads in the configuration file at
each access, so it can be modified externally without problem (although the
internal configuration should be the preferred way...)

I will have some spare time towards the end of August, so I hope to work on
these requests next month. |
