Both hostsinfo or sortdataip. I would say that 250 is generally a good default compromise.
However, we have a lot of "deeply qualified names" (about 40) for routers such as "mspd-54-glion-wap-br-12-omni-a.morespeed.net" The wrapping of all these means that the report becomes very long. This causes us a problem. We prefer wide rather than long :-) So is there some way we can specify the size as a value somewhere to override the default 250?

Strauss III [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 20 February 2004 20:36 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Ntop] Size Of hosts column in 3pre1 Which report? hostsInfo.html??? In many of the reports, columns are limited to that size. That particular report - hostsInfo.html - is especially ugly, since the whole report is now about 1200 wide. There is a method to the madness - using a fixed size means that the columns (and thus the output) always look about the same... Otherwise a single long name makes the whole report look terrible. And it would jump around each time data changed. 250 is a compromise between wasting space if you mostly have 'normal' names (www.abc.com) and not having enough for deeply qualified names. The problem is that there's no easy way to tell html to make the column at least this wide, growable to this and then wrap after that. It's either a fixed size or at % or you leave it up to the browser. Yeah you can do stuff like this with CSS2, but not all (most) of the browsers used don't support that in a consistent way. -----Burton > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Mark > Gibbons > Sent: Friday, February 20, 2004 2:17 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [Ntop] Size Of hosts column in 3pre1 > > > Hi > > <TH ALIGN=LEFT NOWRAP WIDTH=250> > > The hosts column in 3pre1 is width limited to 250 so even if > NOWRAP is specified (which it is) long names still wrap.
