Horizontal lines as separatorson the main view

Hello out there, having implemented Xymon 4.3.7 and working with it, I'm wondering about a "cosmetic" thing. We have several Xymon environments for several customer datacenter's. One environment has 40 pages on the main view, but they should be separated between PROD and TEST environments. At this time, they are separated by the name of the pages, for example "Application" and "Application-T" (for TEST), or "Database" and "Database-T" and so on. In the upper half of the main view, there are the PROD pages, and in the lower half of the main view, there are the TEST pages. The two halves are separated by "dummy" pages. For example: [Application] [-] [Application-T] The [-] is on of the dummy pages, the next dummy page is [--], then the next dummy page is [---] and so on. For me this is not really nice, I would rather like to have the ability to separate things using HTML-tags, for example <HR>, but I don't know if this is possible on the main view? (for example by inserting a special tag or line into hosts.cfg??) Kind regards CHRISTIAN BECKER System Engineer CSC CSC * This is a PRIVATE message.

It is, by (ab)using the "title" tag in hosts.cfg. We use it for the same purpose that You want to, and have lines like this: title <HR> It works. Not especially pretty (from an application design perspective), but it gets the job done. Regards, Henrik
