well I forgot to put the 3. It is Gr3.
Ohhhh okay! Sorry bout that. I just ran your metargrlevel3.php a few times and didn't see that error. Are you seeing the error in your browser after running the script? Or is the error seen in the placefile properties, where you right click the url in the placefile manager and it brings up the placefile properties in GR3? Or perhaps somewhere else? If it is seen in the placefile manager that is most likely from a prior run that failed. When the script fails to connect you can get an error like that in the placefile properties. Unfortunately connecting to the noaa db can fail at times. If it fails quite a bit you can try changing the noaa db url to the FTP db as discussed in the instructions and see if that helps.
BTW, you can change font sizes on lines 79 & 80
