I actually like the idea of the popup versus appending it (like it does now)...it saves valuable real estate that is better used to show your monitors.

Our installation does that as well (4.2.0) but we made no modifications in that regard. Maybe the COMMENT functionality was adjusted recently, or your patch was incorporated?

We actually made a patch against the code to show the COMMENT tag with the host name.
So, if your config line looks like 192.168.1.99 wormhole.localdomain.com # fgtses COMMENT:"Firewall"
You get wormhole.localdomain.com (Firewall)
on your web pages.
I can see about generating a patch against 4.2.1, but we have some other
features we added as well.

There are several places, actually. The easiest thing to do is look at the page you want to modify, in the source. Each section has a div or a table separating the rest of it, usually labeled. For instance, on the bb2 page, the table has a SUMMARY of "Group Block" (this might be what we modified it to, but I was pretty sure it was in the base source as that).
Do a grep "Group Block" * while in the bbdisplay source directory
That will tell you what line that appears in, and that will be the function defining how that section is generated. Find the image tag, put an ALT and a TITLE in there, and you should be golden. Modify other sections accordingly.

Hi Hobbit's,
I would like to raise a litle feature request:
I like the functionality that when you hook the mousepointer over a dot a small box pops up and displays information in the form column:color:duration.
I (and also a lot of people in my company) would like to see this also for the hostname links. If a DESCR tag is in the bb-hosts file for this host it's content should be displayed in the little pop-up box. This way it's not necessary to view the info column each time to get this info.
I think it can be done by inserting an "ALT" html-tag in the page source-code. I looked into the pagegen.c and other modules but I didn't find the right place to hook in. And unfortunately I'm pretty poor in C programing.
Can someone give me a tip or is someone even able to code this (Henrik?)
Thanks Johann
