odbedit can now save ODB in JSON-formatted files. (JSON is a popular data encoding standard associated
with Javascript). The intent is to eventually use the ODB JSON encoder in mhttpd to simplify passing of
ODB data to custom web pages. In mhttpd I also intend to support the JSON-P variation of JSON (via the

14 Sep 2013, Konstantin Olchanski, Info, mktime() and daylight savings time

I would like to share with you a silly problem with mktime() and daylight savings time (Summer
time/Winter time) that I have run into while working on the mhttpd history query page.

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
to be shown on top of the menu bar on all mhttpd pages. One possible application is to bring back the old
status line with the name of the current experiment, the actual time and the refresh interval.

24 Sep 2013, Stefan Ritt, Info, mktime() and daylight savings time
|
I vaguely remember that I had a similar problem with ELOG. The solution was to call tzset() at the beginning of the program. The man page says that
this function is called automatically by programs using time zones, but apparently it is not. Can you try that? There is also the TZ environment
variable and /etc/localtime. I never understood the details, but playing with these things can influence mktime() and localtime().
