Webmin Action Log UI request

Of all the features of webmin the one that I think is the killer feature is the webmin actions log. I do all file config changes through webmin's filemanager or webmin itself and issue commands through the command shell of webmin so that everything gets logged. Saves so much confusion and ambiguity (did I change xyz or did I forget that again?) it's saved my bacon many times. One small caveat though while in an event it would be brilliant if there was a forward and back button so could go to the next event in the sequence without having to go back to the list, find where you were then go to the next command. To prevent my loosing my place in the log, I command click the entries (I use omniweb on a mac) so that the entries appear in a new tab but what I would really want to do is just jump through them clicking next (the windows event manager does something similar) and I'll frequently end up with a browser so full of tabs after looking through say 50 events that usually the browser will just barf... Alternatively or additionally - add a second frame so that the list of events is kept in view and the even on the side - I've attached a mock up to show what it would look like... cheers!!

Thanks for the suggestion! I'm passing this along to Jamie so he can take a look at your request.

Yes, that sounds like a good idea for an improvement .. however, it would be a little tricky to implement due to the way searching of logs is implemented currently. So it probably won't show up for a while.
