this was a name conflict between the antville image manager and the static image directory. I fixed that now, the image directory is now at /img instead of /images, but some people hardcoded their image tags to /images/... and these don't work anymore. Not sure what to do here.

i uploaded a jpg, but i cannot find it anywhere. i expected it to be in the pool.

And I think it worked. (after getting the macro right)

thx, hns!

btw, did the edit and delete links work ever before? i am not sure about that, but anyway they don't work now.

I just deleted an image. Worked ok.

uhm, well, actually i wanted to delete an image that i did not upload... it's the question why i can see the links, then. user rights again?

has nothing to do with userrights (this time ;-), just with the fact that the imagepool-manager isn't finished ...

Tobi had the same problem, changing some cookie-related option solved the problem.

i have to login after every restart of the program. but contrary to grob, i need to sign in only once to participate in several sites.

The cookie which stores your login is not persistent, it's a session cookie, so it's expected that you have to re-login after restarting the browser.

It would be nice to have persistent log-ins as an option, as well as a password reminder. I'll see if I can do something in this space.

when i start up IE and access "project.antville.org", i'm getting a HopSession-cookie for the domain "project.antville.org" instead of "antville.org". which means, if i log in in project.antville.org and move on to grottenolm.antville.org, i'm getting a new HopSession-cookie there for the domain "grottenolm.antville.org".

logging in for all antville-sites works only if i log in at "antville.org".

or am i getting something completely wrong?

the appropriate setting to enable cookies across domains eventually is a little bit hard to find: open "internet options" from the "extras" menu and go to the "security" tab. click on the "custom level" button and scroll down the list to "miscellaneous" then activate the "prompt" radio button for the option "access data sources across domains".

concerning internet explorer, you should be aware, though, that this makes an unsecure software even more vulnerable (read more).

persistant cookie is easy. there is something with the expiry time. if i remember correctly, if you set it to zero it is a session cookie. a "remember me" checkbox on the login would be great.

on the other hand, this may raise security issues. how about legal tags in messages? can members write javascripts in their messages? imagine, someone reads out the cookie via .js and sends it somewhere. i am sure this is a way to hack manila-sites, if people allow script tags in members messages.

1. close your browser completely (no matter which)
2. start it up again and go directly to "project.antville.org"
3. log in there
4. go directly to i.e. "grottenolm.antville.org" - you will not be logged in there ...

that's what i meant ... btw.: doesn't matter which browser you're using (i tested it with netscape and ie)

robert's description causes the same (mis)behaviour in my browser. seems to be something different from the cookie domain thing...

or is it intended / only possible to work this way?

strange thing is, when i login on elephantville i am automatically logged in here or on grottenolm or on tobi. actually, i am only a member on my site not on the others.

The cookie is only set to the whole .antville.org domain if it comes from www.antville.org. I checked with the Helma source, this must definitely be a bug in Apache JServ, since the domain is set correctly on all cookies.
