It works for me on Chrome and Edge browsers, but Firefox gives the "false" error that others reported.

I wonder if it's a browser issue. I only tested it on Edge.

Thanks Jeremy,

As Nicola also answered, I too just get a page with "false"
 - Xymon 4.3.30
- modified mine so it just shows up on "/Switches" pages
- added you script contents directly to the stdnormal_header file

Hovering over from the "Views" choice:
- nongreen shows the correct path:

The new Host Filter has:

I guess the browser doesn't really know where to find this ?

Courtesy of AI, and after some minor tweaks, the attached javascript will create a host filter on Xymon pages with hosts (wherever the URL location starts with "/xymon/").

Either insert the file to your stdnormal_footer file just above &XYMONBODYFOOTER, or create a new file in a suitable location such as /etc/xymon/xymonbodyfooter.html (or append to an existing file if you already use one) and (if it's not already set) update XYMONBODYFOOTER in xymonserver.cfg to point to the file (eg XYMONBODYFOOTER="file:/etc/xymon/xymonbodyfooter.html").

Then, wait a few minutes for the pages to re-generate, and then the filter will be available. To toggle the filter on the page, either select the new checkboxed menu item from the Views menu, or type CTRL-SHIFT-F (or CMD-SHIFT-F on a Mac).

You can list a host in more than one page. So if you need to keep all 300 hosts in one page, you can have separate pages with subsets of the hosts.

A Javascript add-on to dynamically filter the hosts shouldn't be too hard to put together.

Unfortunately, there is not a filtered host display page option.  I may look to see if I can create one for Xymon 4.0 as an enhancement.

That makes sense.  Would using groups (which leave the items on that page, but group them into logical sets of things) be useful?

Otherwise, I'm not personally aware of any good solutions for you.  There might be one, but I'm not thinking of it.

Thanks for the reply.
I do have many pages/sub-pages for other things, the issue is, I have some "outside scripts" that grab info off "page-x", so breaking the hosts list up would cause "other issues".

I don't believe so, but you could break it up into blocks of conceptually related items using groups or pages/subpages if you need the same blocks of stuff on a regular basis.  This is done in the hosts.cfg file using page, subpage, subparent, etc. commands or group commands.  Check https://xymon.sourceforge.io/xymon/help/manpages/man5/hosts.cfg.5.html for details.

I have a page with over 300 hosts, is there a way to just filter hosts that start with "X" ?
