Hi,

All seems to be working OK here, but for some reason the tide clock ignores morning high and low tides and shows the next tide of the afternoon. The dashboard is at www.gosportweather.co.uk/wxindex.php and the tide page showing tide times is at http://gosportweather.co.uk/tideprediction.html. I have checked the settings but can't seem to get it working correctly.

Any suggestions as to why it ignores morning tides?

Regards,

Ross Hodgman

Hi!
Inserted 18.33C instead of 65F. and it worked fine. Has been corrected in some of the paths clean up the red X. Taking little by little.
Must be out enjoying the weather there is a long time since it was such temperatures here with us.

Thank you scott.

Thanks Scott,

6.70 in production and working fine.

Also thanks to gwwilk for the compressed file it's also working fine.

Hi,

I am finding that the tide clock isn't displaying correctly in IE 9. It seems to be completely off centre. I just wonder how I could fix this as most of my visitors use IE. The code for the tide clock is also failing the validation check at W3C.

The errors I get are:

Line 870, Column 3: document type does not allow element "p" here

Line 870, Column 100: document type does not allow element "img" here; assuming missing "caption" start-tag

The code is:

$next_tide_time = date('H:i T', strtotime("+$mins_to_next_tide minutes"));
echo "".time_till_tide($mins_to_next_tide * 60)." to $tide_type tide at $next_tide_time ";
$mins_to_next_tide_rounded = round_tide_time($mins_to_next_tide);
$tide_image = select_tide_image($mins_to_next_tide_rounded,$tide_type);
echo "<img src=\"tides/$tide_image\" width=\"250\" alt=\"\"></img> ";

//echo $nexttidequarter;
?>

Any help would be appreciated.

Try removing the double quote immediately after ".

BurnsvilleWeather · « **Reply #33 on:** June 18, 2012, 07:19:02 PM »

I've made a change to that section of code for the next version. If you replace the lines in questions with:

Code: [Select]

$next_tide_time = date('h:i A T', strtotime("+$mins_to_next_tide minutes"));
echo "<p>" . time_till_tide($mins_to_next_tide * 60) . " to " . $tide_type . " tide at<br />" . $next_tide_time . "</p>";

This will be the code that will be(is) in version 6.71 when it gets released. Image below shows how it will look. (Note, I don't use Tide so there is no graphic, it just shows how the placement and wording is.)

The "feels like" feature under current temp on my 6.70 front page doesn't seem to work properly. Starting out it lands on a reasonable temp, but after a brief time changes to a much higher figure that doesn't seem right. Don't know what's the matter. It sure doesn't feel like it's as bad as 102. It's at: http://stillwaterweather.com/wx/2ndhome.php

cospringswx · « **Reply #35 on:** June 20, 2012, 02:33:31 PM »

Probably because of the high humidity. Thats probably right

Bunty · « **Reply #36 on:** June 20, 2012, 03:29:02 PM »

OK, you must be right. Someone else with 6.7, who has similar conditions, has the "feels like" temp around 100.

Weather Display · « **Reply #37 on:** June 21, 2012, 05:03:49 AM »

I bet as soon as you go outside and do some work it will feel like that hot

WeatherAnomaly · « **Reply #38 on:** June 22, 2012, 03:30:30 PM »

For the tide prediction I cannot find the icons. Were the icons for tide s suppose to be included with the 6.7.version? Thanks in advance. Nice work on v6.70.

The tide items are there only for those already setup and running with it since I did not write that module. One you have it setup and working, it will display on the dashboard. Sorry.

Hi,

I just upgraded to 6.70. I have three issues.

1. I chose to have the heat index and wind chill display instead of the feels like temperature. However the feels like temperature continues to display.

$useFL = false; // Set to false if you do not want to show the "Feels Like" colored word under the Temperature
$useHC = true; // Set to true if you want to show Heat Index and Wind Chill here instead

2. I set up the soil moisture / temperature like I did in the previous ver. Now I get the statement sensor below freezing when the soil temp. 4" down is 90 plus degrees.

3. When I click the the wording for full forecast (upper right above chandler burn index) I get the wxsim forecast instead of NWS.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Bob

Happy 4th everyone.

BurnsvilleWeather · « **Reply #41 on:** July 06, 2012, 02:27:07 PM »

The sensor below freezing is because the sensor is totally dry and I didn't anticipate that happening other then freezing. I have a fix for it, email me directly and I will send you the update. As for the other, I will have to check, I just got back from vacation so it will be later this weekend.

Hi Scott,

Just filled out the contact form at your website for you to send the information. I understand about vacation and the other items. When ever you get a chance.

Thanks.

Best regards,

Minor issue:
~~No record high icon showing. I'm getting this validation error, probably the reason.~~

NVM didn't have new icons. duh.

Still getting validation though.

ine 619, Column 99: document type does not allow element "img" here

…c_HIGH.gif" alt="Official Record High"/>

✉

The element named above was found in a context where it is not allowed. This could mean that you have incorrectly nested elements -- such as a "style" element in the "body" section instead of inside "head" -- or two elements that overlap (which is not allowed).

Hi Scott,

My dashboard was showing the wrong high temp today, minor point I know off by 0.1 (Shows 102.0 actual was 102.1, the time is correct). Really would not have noticed but we had record high today.
Is it because of rounding with ajxaxtempmax?

102.0°F

Thanks a bunch!

BurnsvilleWeather · « **Reply #45 on:** July 07, 2012, 07:41:40 PM »

My guess is that this is a rounding error. Either way this would be passed to the script from Weather Display as such. You can verify that by looking at the testtags.txt file.

Hi All,

I was switching from Version 6.20 to 6.70 and then got this message:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '%', expecting ']' in /virtual/users/e15634-16474/web/testtags.php on line 552

Placed the new testtags v1.07 in my local file. Any ideas?

Thanks!

You may have added in the additional tags (many are added to the base 1.07) and wiped out the line(s) that must remain at the end. Double check that.

BurnsvilleWeather · « **Reply #48 on:** July 08, 2012, 08:04:16 PM »

UPDATE: I've made several minor changes to version 6.70 and have a new beta release 6.71

In this new release:

Fixed the format issue for the Tide Display
Fixed the Soil 200cb issue and changed the wording to include 200
Fixed incorrect Ajax tag for heat index (not sure how long that hasn't worked!)
NEW FEATURE: Added ability to replace or add Heat Index/Wind Chill to or in-place of Feels Like Temperature
but to do so had to add to the ajaxWDwx.js file for the extra dup tags. You will need to replace both files!

The config file has had the settings for the new feature for quite awhile, it was just labeled as future. It will now start working. You can actually display both now too as you will see on my site currently. If you want to beta test this, please drop me an email and I will send you both the .js and .php files.

Scott

PS: Would especially like someone that can test wind chill to beta test if that fits anyone!!

I seem to have an issue where the 24 hour time is selected to display in the file, when my page opens it in fact does display 24 hour time, then switches over to normal display. I've changed what I had to, or so I thought...where are the time display settings located???
