Hi,

First of all, thank you for this quick response.

I had previously written to Michael TREMER about the problem I was having pushing patches for IPFire with Git. He helped me find the solution.
I know, having written to him yesterday, that he is not currently available.

I also spoke with Stéphane PAUTREL (who supports French translation updates), about the developments that I wanted to share with the IPFire user community.

Concerning this patch (dhcpi.cgi), in fact now that you have pointed it out to me, I see the errors I made.
I hope that I have corrected them...

I will have other developments but I want to finish the "process" of the first patch, to then send the following ones "one by one".

I have written a detailed documentation of this process, for the moment in French, which I will later translate into English, to propose it for publication on the IPFire wiki...

I also think that Stéphane PAUTREL will also have patches to offer.

Have a good day,
Sébastien

Hi Sebastien,

Thanks for the patch. I have tested this out and found a few quirks with it.

The table for that section is set at 100%. The original columns then added up to 100%.

Your patch added in an additional column at 20% making the total width now 120% but the overall table is still set at 100%. I think you need to adjust the width of each of the columns including the new column to come to a total of 100%.

In your line for the heading you have a closing <a/> tag for a hyperlink but there is no equivalent opening <a> tag in the line and no hyperlink defined. I am not sure if this is giving any problems but the closing <a/> tag is not needed there as there is no hyperlink.

When evaluating your patch I found that your Hostname column expands to keep the hostname on one line. This forces the other columns (next-server, filename and root path) to be squeezed up and made into multiple line entries. I think the hostname column should also be allowed to be a multi line entry to balance the columns up.

Eventually the other columns reach a min width and then the table expands outside of the overall frame of the IPFire page. This may be due to the columns totalling more than 100% but I am not familiar enough with html coding to be certain of that.

The line

if (!$rname || $rname eq "") { $rname = $Lang::tr{'lookup failed'}; }

has a Language lookup but the phrase 'lookup failed' has not been added into the English, German or French Language files.

Regards,

Adolf.
