No problem, I will post it shortly. It's very small (one or two lines). I just have some IT hurdles to jump.<br><br>Essentially here's how it works:<br><br>Lets say you set your --docurl to something like this:<br>
<br>--docurl=<a href="http://mysite.com/xymon-cgi/docurl.cgi?%s">http://mysite.com/xymon-cgi/docurl.cgi?%s</a><br><br><br>Now, all 'docurl.cgi' will need to contain in order to do a proper redirection is the following:<br>
<br>----<br>#!/usr/bin/perl -w<br>use strict;<br><br>print "Location: <a href="http://someothersite.com/page.html#">http://someothersite.com/page.html#</a>". $ARGV[0] . "\n\n";<br>exit;<br>----<br><br>
And thats it. $ARGV[0] is really just an array element (@ARGV being the array) which automatically includes any arguments passed to the script. In our case, the argument is "%s" from --docurl, which 'docurl.cgi' receives as "<a href="http://hostname.domain.com">hostname.domain.com</a>".<br>
<br>The 'print' statement just prints an HTTP header which forces the browser to re-direct to a new location, specifically, the URL "<a href="http://someothersite.com/page.html#hostname.domain.com">http://someothersite.com/page.html#hostname.domain.com</a>". You just have to make sure that your 'page.html' contains an HTML anchor ("<a name...") such as this:<br>
<br>....<br><a name="<a href="http://hostname.domain.com">hostname.domain.com</a>"><br>This is the start of the '<a href="http://hostname.domain.com">hostname.domain.com</a>' section.<br>....<br><br>
It's pretty straight forward, and you don't really even need to use perl CGI modules or anything because the script is so small and only serves one purpose.<br><br>Try it out, and let me know if it works for you. I'll post the actual script here shortly, but if I typed out the above correctly, then it would contain exactly the same thing that my script contains.<br>

<br>
Thanks for the help!<br>
<br>
I ended up using BBGEN's --docurl option, it seems cleaner, and it's built-in.<br>
<br>
--docurl only accepts URLs which are static HTML, or CGI scripts. It does
not, for example, accept a link which includes a hash '#' character. I
even tried to escape it with a backslash, but it didn't work. So I had to
get creative.<br>
<br>
I wrote a very small perl script and popped it into my cgi-bin directory.
The script simply takes the %s argument which can be passed via --docurl, and
redirects to the correct site using HTML anchors '#'.<br>
<br>
E.g.:<br>
--docurl=xymon-cgi/docurl.cgi?%s<br>
<br>
%s would be something like "<a href="http://host.domain.com" target="_blank">host.domain.com</a>'"<br>
<br>
docurl.cgi redirects to:<br>
<a href="http://somesite.domain.com/pages/page.html#host.domain.com" target="_blank">http://somesite.domain.com/pages/page.html#host.domain.com</a><br>
<br>
Which jumps to the correct section in the document with the host details.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks again again all!<br>

Is this the one you're talking about?<br>

<br>
It looks like it is an addon to edit existing notes files from a web
interface. But I didn't know Xymon had existing notes files.. I would be
just as happy to edit them on the command line. Am I understanding this
correctly?</span></p>

<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">I noticed that when I mouse over the names

<br>
This info is great and saves me a lot of time. However, I would like to
somehow add a more detailed description of the system, and have it appear in
Xymon, either by mouse-over like with the IP address, or by clicking on the
name of the system (a link).<br>
<br>
Is there any way to do this, or is there any other mechanism for providing a
more detailed description of any given system within the monitored list?<br>
