I would like to hyperlink all of my hosts, perhaps with a few excludes, t= o something using the following? ~/server/bin/bbgen --docurl=3Dhttp://systeminfo/ServersForm.aspx?name=3D%s The problem is that my pages get totally messed up (broken gifs), then a few = seconds later recover. I know that I must be using bbgen improperly, so I am= hoping for a few pointers in the right direction so that my entries for my h= osts are shown with hyperlinks to additional info as shown when the link is v= isited. Is their an entry that I must make in a file under etc? I've looked = and am unable to find any. 2. My prior version of BB BTF has a legend at the bottom, is their any way t= o show the legend at the bottom of xymon? A few of my users are asking for t= his as they are clueless to what the icons all mean. Thank you! .vp =20 --===============6425325132484977850==-- From asparks@doublesparks.net Wed Jun 24 08:19:02 2026 From: asparks@doublesparks.net To: xymon@xymon.com Subject: [hobbit] bbegn --docurl and Legend Question Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2009 12:20:21 -0700 Message-ID: <4AFC5FF5.5040506@doublesparks.net> In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="===============0660544283910782398==" --===============0660544283910782398== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit wiskbroom at hotmail.com wrote: > 1.

I have something like the following, that replaces the big chunk in bb_footer:

Maybe that might help... Thank you Alan, the entry, which I overlooked, works like a charm. How can I make that popup another window as opposed to a total redirection? > > 2.

I've added a legend to the top of the page by editing the = header files, but you could do the same for the footers. I did it that way be= cause you can't always see the bottom of the page.

Got me on that one, short of a code modification I know of no way to do that. -Alan --===============8605370915057554166==--
