Still not 100% 24/7, but time will tell when it does.. solar sensor not connected at present.. but it doesnt make much difference at the moment.
Maybe a bit of lag at times with the forecast

Getting domain name soon.. am in contact with the HCC regarding forecasting on thier site etc.

But yes, all systems go!

Thanks soooooooooo much to Brian Hamilton for helping me with WD.. and helping me again

Had big fustrations with WD.. but got over them, am finally being able to tame the beast!- That is weather display

Excellent work Foggy. There can never be too many weather stations online!

Now if only there were several more hours in the day so I can get Twizel, Lake Ohau and the new, second Omarama stations online!

I really like the main CSS form (the current conditions fields). Is that a WD template or all your own work? Either way I'm tempted to steal it for my own sites!

Manukau heads obs · Sun 18/12/2005 23:03

there is some other good hosting sites out there foggy, check out the WD forum re hosting web sites
from what i can gather, he used WD's built in WYSIWUG html editor for that tables part
if you steal things, then a link back to the source or acknowledgement is good to do, but thats just my opinion, or are you just stiring the pot again gary

Yeah the tables are my work.. no CSS has been used, they just all follow the WD tags you can use at free will, then the tags just follow an output file next to it..

e.g, %baro%, %pressuretrendname3hour%

Blast this stupid server
