Recently a post on the Knowledge Centre caught my attention, the display layer for the Edit/Organise screen does not show the parent of the Task, which is helpful when trying to identify the source of the task or where there could be several tasks with similar names. I realised that this could be quickly solved with a simple change to the underlying WebLingo page. Firstly, we add the header row :

    <TD STYLE="BACKGROUND-REPEAT: repeat-x" BACKGROUND="`img`fon-table-header-blue.gif" CLASS="browseListHeaderLocation" SCOPE="colgroup" NOWRAP>
         <A HREF="javascript:doSubmit('`%Smode`','`%Stab`','`sort=='location'?'-':''`location')">`[Home_HTMLLabel.Location]`</A>
    </TD>
    <TD WIDTH="1%" CLASS="cellDivider" STYLE="BACKGROUND-REPEAT: no-repeat" BACKGROUND="`img`table-header-divider.gif">
        <IMG HEIGHT="19" ALT="" SRC="`img`px.gif" WIDTH="2" BORDER="0">
    </TD>
;end
;case 'EDIT_BODY'

Next, we add the content rows :

<TD><IMG HEIGHT="1" ALT="" SRC="`img`px.gif" WIDTH="2" BORDER="0"></TD>
            ;if( ( nodeRec.subType == $TypePersonalStagingFolder ) && ( Math.Abs( nodeRec.OwnerID ) == nodeRec.parentID ) )
                <TD CLASS="browseItemLocation"> </TD>
            ;else
                ;webRoot = $WebNode.WebNodes.GetItem( nodeRec.RootRec.SubType )
                ;openRoot = webRoot.Cmd( 'open' )
                <TD CLASS="browseItemLocation">
                    `%LwebRoot.IMG( nodeRec.RootRec )` `%LopenRoot.DisabledLink( .fPrgCtx, .fArgs, nodeRec.RootRec, nodeRec.RootRec.Name )`
                </TD>
            ;end
        ;end
    ;end
    
;;end
