Hmmm, how about a second line containing a "manual" setting (INPUT TYPE="TEXT" as it was before)... is ugly to have 2 lines, I know. I don't think that in this case we need to have a Java Script button to first at it to the list and then submit it. Just typing it in would be enough-the rest could be done in the evaluation of the result (this would spare at least one mouse click). This line should be optional. So how about variables before and after this line containing "<!--" and "-->" and displaying them depending on the configuration? Or with this "variable comments" we could make both possible in the templates. Would that help? Complex but flexible. In any case, I will revert it for the blue skin if you like. I would like to keep it at least for the default one. > > I changed the render function, to be able to have more than 1 block.

(that's the way it was implemented by me) Yes it is the easiest, but it may lead to some strange results, if the programmer is not aware of this (as each variable within a block MUST be of this array). Maybe there should be at least a check, if the variable is an array type. So the replacement will work on arrays only. To make it more tolerant, it may check for the count, so it should only replace the elements with the same count (but I don't think there is any sense for such a situation at all). In general, if someone is trying to change the skin, he should know what to do and to help him, the documentation should be there. > Okay, I just removed the whitespaces and linebreaks in > localconfig.inc.php.bak, because it's really annoying to do that every time > updating this file.

First the changelog entry: - Moved the format definition to cvboxconf.inc.php - Reenabled the format information in the login screen in both skins - Changed render function to allow more than one block (serial only, not nested) - Changed HOST_LIST to an array. You MUST adjust your local configuration again Please see the localconfig.inc.bak for the designchange - Adjusted the login templates to use the HOST_LIST again - Added a default HOST to the HOST_LIST Or in words: I reenabled the possibilty for more than 1 host. To use it, you must update your local config. Chris: I changed the render function, to be able to have more than 1 block. The new one relies on serial blocks (so no nested blocks are allowed) and that each variable in a block has always the same amount of data as the "leading" variable. Is this okay with you? Philipp |

Okay, I updated Win2k to SP2 and IE 5.5 to SP2. Changed one line and now it works again. It still asks you to download or play (don't know why again).

Hello,
I'd like to spend my next time in adding the debugging features.
This is needed, because the other big open issue is the check of the
userinput. If the userinput is wrong, then I need to display debug output.
Therefore I we should first define how to store and present debug output.
I was thinking about an array in vboxConf:
debugInfo [$i] [class] [group] [header] [description]
together with the vboxConf->debug, which defines the debug level.
This would be an array where we append all debug in the situation they occur.
In the sources we would then add lines like:
if ($vboxConf->debug > 2) {
$debug=array();
$debug[class]="1"; #1 = critical <-> #6 information
$debug[group]="vboxIO";
$debug[header]="Cannot find sox";
$debug[description]="I cannot find the program sox. \n
Either you don't have it installed
or the path in vboxconf.inc.php is
wrong\n
Please check your installation.";
}
Class can be used for an icon.
debug=0 is always shown, there we display the normal answers.
What do you think?
Philipp

You can adjust if the background sound is endless or not. I assume there
should be options to control this via JS.

How about providing a link in the popup which then gives you the possibility
to download?
I'm currently even thinking about "caching" the generated wav files, so a
reload should be much faster.

not any longer ;-)

not any longer too ;-)
I found it on the php homepage in the comments to "header()":
1. IE doesn't like the default caching headers of PHP -> always gave an error
Simply overwrite them
2. IE loves to see a \n\r at the end of the header texts.
Both in CVS now.

Nice to hear, I got both to work with IE 5.5 too <strike>

I have added the direct link in the messagelist to add the displayed callerid the local configuration for caller ids. It checks if it is local (otherwise no local configuration is possible), if it is a real number (then it would be 0) and if it is not already stored (if the name contains "***"). Okay, the check for already stored is a bit hackish, as it only test for a string "***" in the displayed name. The displayed name is generated by vboxd (?) and therefore I cannot rely on it . A real check would enforce to everytime scan the local configuration, which I would like to avoid. Chris: Can you have a look on it, especially for the design. I added some code and you should look if it fits your eye candy in the "Blue" skin ;-) Greetings Philipp |

hi, today I added the messagelist template for the "blue" skin. additionally, I cleaned up some variables in the templates, but this needs more work to be done. I'll do it this weekend... I noticed another bug: after deleting a message, "Could not delete message" is written out but the message item is successfully deleted... finally, I got the public-key-auth for cvs working; it was releated to the ssh proto version I used; after rtfm'ing I realized that the public key file needed a "2" at the end 'cause I use the 2nd ssh protocol release... *urgh* :) greets, chris -- christophe thil | ch...@th... | icq[10113170] |

I have changed (with only 10 lines of code!) the whole session management. I now use the PHP4 functionality for session management and no (own) local file is needed any more. The old code is still there, I simply commented it out. Okay, the code is not realy nice (should be moved to vboxIO sooner or later), but it works as I expect. Please test and tell me your experience with it. Philipp |

Hallo Chris, ich denke ein kleiner Fehler meinerseits könnte die Ursache sein. Ich habe die localconfig.inc.php aus versehen mit meinen Anpassungen hochgeladen. Damit könnte ich Deine Einstellungen überschrieben haben und er findet Deinen lokalen Server nicht. Bei mir funktioniert die Messagelist ganz normal, daher gehe ich mal von einem Config-Problem aus. Schön zu hören, daß Du Dich nun um die Messagelist kümmerst (wollte grad an ihr rumfummeln ;-) Was hälst Du eigentlich von den Config-Optionen. Ist das nun so okay? Ich hab bisher ja noch gar kein Feadback bekommen. PS: Das Problem mit den "überschriebenen Rechten" habe ich gelöst. Man muß in der vboxgetty.conf die Gruppe und die umask anpassen (siehe auch INSTALLATION). Gruß Philipp |

Hi to everybody, FYI: I finally have it fully functional: You can now upload, copy, rename, delete any message in your box. Still a lot in the todo list, but one entry less :-) There is one thing that nerves me: Every day the ownership in the vbox user directories are set back to the default values. Does anybody know, what triggers this? Is it vboxd itself or is it a security setting on my Debian box? Anyway, happy coding, Philipp |
