Overview

Greyware Logon Monitor uses a web server to provide information about current user sessions and other data. You may change the way the web pages look by editing the include files and/or replacing the graphics.

Static Content

The web server built into Greyware Logon Monitor can serve any graphic or HTML file in its folder or a sub-folder. To refer to a the root folder, preface the filename with a single forward slash. For example, the file being displayed right now is /customize.htm.

You cannot refer to files "above" the root folder, or refer to any folder or filename with a double dot ".." in the name or path.

Dynamic Content

Special URLs

Certain keywords refer to functions rather than real file URLs. If you have files with these names, they will never be served because the internal function will be called instead:
• /users - the main user data page
• /machines - the main machine data page
• /sessions.csv - the sessions.csv file
• /events.csv - the events.csv file
• /logonmon.mdb - the logonmon.mdb file
• /txtlog - the main text log page
• /dump - a display of all internal HTTP variables



Special Files

The following filenames are used internally by Greyware Logon Monitor, and therefore cannot be changed. The files must be present in the web root folder:
• header.inc
• trailer.inc

These files form the header and trailer for all dynamically-generated content (report data). The web server first displays header.inc, then the requested data, and finally trailer.inc.

You may edit the header and trailer files to suit your preferences. Since these files contain the top and bottom of every dynamic page, and also contain the header and style information, you can customize almost everything about Greyware Logon Monitor's appearance.

The web server expects the header to define fonts and table styles. The main table style used for all report data is named DataTable and must be present in header.inc for the program to function properly.

Special Graphics Files

The follow filenames are used internally by Greyware Logon Monitor, and therefore cannot be changed. The graphical elements referred to by these filenames must be present in the web root folder:
• up.gif
• dn.gif
• information.gif
• warning.gif
• error.gif
• greenbulb.gif
• redbulb.gif
• yellowbulb.gif
• clearbulb.gif



Conditional Execution

Text enclosed in a comment may be conditionally rendered by including a condition within the comment:

<!-- if  condition any text to be rendered if the condition is true... -->

You may replace condition with any of the following tokens:

• admin -- true if user has logged on and is an administrator
• guest -- true if the user has not logged on
• localnet -- true if the user is connecting from a local network
• registered -- true if the copy of Greyware Logon Monitor is registered

To test for false instead of testing for true, preface the condition token with an exclamation point.

Examples:

• Code: This copy is<!-- if !registered <i>not</i> -->registered.
  Result: This copy is registered.

• Code: You are <!-- if guest <i>not</i> -->logged in.
  Result: You are logged in.



Variable Replacement

Files ending in ".inc" or ".htm" or ".html" are parsed for variables enclosed by <%= and %>. If the variable name matches an internal variable, the value of that variable is displayed.
