Topic: Help installing firedangerWD with Alt Dashboard 6.95

[thebigboi]

I have just recently reinstalled my website from the ground up. I have attempted to install firedangerWD and made the modifications as recommended in http://www.wxforum.net/index.php?topic=20581.msg266869#msg266869 to the three scripts. However, I must be doing something wrong because each time the dashboard fails to load and I have to go back to the original scripts. I am attaching the scripts as modified. If someone could please look at the scripts and tell me what I am doing wrong I sure would appreciate it. I know it can work because I see other sites using it. Thanks. My website is www.murfreesboroweather.com.

The issue may be in the ajax-dashboard6.php line

Code: [Select]

<?php langtrans('Current FWI'); ?>:<sup>4</sup><br/><a href="<?php echo $fwi_url?>" target="_blank" title="USFS Wildfire Danger"><?php langtrans('Fire Danger'); ?>:</a><br />
The <a href="<?php echo $fwi_url?>" maybe should be <a href="<?php echo $fwi_url; ?>"

When it 'fails to load', what does the error_log on your website say about the error?

The ajaxWDwx3.js is not involved at all with a PHP 'fails to load' error..it will only dynamically update the HTML between
<span class="ajax" id="ajaxfireindex"> ... and </span> with the current FWI.

Ken, The error that shows is [13-Jul-2017 19:29:59 America/Chicago] PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected '}' in /home/lganglin/public_html/ajax-dashboard6.php on line 631. FYI, Line 631 is "<?php } // end $useCBI   ?> ". I did make the change you suggested and got the same response.

Ken, This is the code that I add to the script (ajax-dashboard6.php) that causes the error:<?php } // end $useCBI   ?>                 
<?php if ($useFD) {  //  Show Chandler Buring Index using firedangerWD.php ?>
                             <tr>
                               <td colspan ="2" style="text-align: center;">
                                    <a href="<?php echo $fwi_url?>" target="_blank" title="Nebraska Wildfire Danger">
                                <span class="ajax" id="ajaxfdimg"><img src="firedangerWD.php" height="135" width="170" alt=""/></span></a>
                               </td>
                             </tr>
<?php } // end $useFD   ?>                                     
            </table>
The first and last line are for reference as to where I added the code into the standard script. If I remove the code everything is fine. As soon as I add it back I get an error. Thanks for any assistance you can render. I tried semi-colons at every possible place I thought might work but my efforts were futile.

The first and last line was already there and is for reference only as to the location in the standard

The only thing I can see on this is

Code: [Select]

<?php echo $fwi_url?> which should be

Code: [Select]

<?php echo $fwi_url; ?> (with the semi-colon and space before the closing ?>

Have you tried just that?

Ken, I tried it with the change as you suggested and got an error code as follows: [14-Jul-2017 14:25:49 America/Chicago] PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected '}' in /home/lganglin/public_html/ajax-dashboard6.php on line 632. Line 632 is "<?php } // end $useCBI   ?> ". This is the script line right before the useFD section of the script which I added. You are correct in that the error is in the script that I've added. I'll keep messing with it and sooner or later will hit on something. I appreciate you looking at the code and all you help.

Are you loading a JQuery source script somewhere in the mix?  The code falls apart right where JQuery comes into play.

I load it in my 'menubar.php' at line 52 in order to use JQuery for my sunlight pie chart:

Code: [Select]

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.3/jquery.min.js"></script>

In addition there's a problem with the 'jq' substitution I used to avoid naming conflicts for JQuery's default '$' in the javascript.  It's also loaded in my menubar in the sunlight pie chart's javascript routine at line 284:

Code: [Select]

var jq = jQuery.noConflict();

Add these two changes somewhere in your script sequence, and I think it just might start working for you.
