27 Feb 2014, Andreas Suter, Suggestion, runlog is "ugly"

I have a couple of questions and suggestions concerning the "new" CSS style of the mhttpd, especially related to the runlog

[*] If I am not mistaken, the mhttpd.css is hard coded (path/name) into the mhttpd. Wouldn't it be beneficial to have ODB entries where to get is from? |

mhttpd.css is served from $MIDASSYS/resources/mhttpd.css. The actual path is reported on the mhttpd

28 Feb 2014, Andreas Suter, Suggestion, runlog is "ugly"

Understand me right, I mostly like the new style, except the runlog as reported.
Attached you will find the diff's you were asking for. But as pointed out, I
haven't worked so far on CSS and hence this should be checked!!

I put mhttpd.css and mhttpd.js into the ODB, so every experiment can change it. I put also Andreas' modifications of the CSS file for the runlog table and
committed the changes.

23 Sep 2013, Stefan Ritt, Info, Custom page header implemented

Due to popular request, I implemented a custom header for mhttpd. This allows to inject some HTML code

status line with the name of the current experiment, the actual time and the refresh interval.

Since several projects at PSI need MSCB but not MIDAS, I decided to separate the two repositories. So if you
