Hi, Keith. Welcome to the forum!

Would you please clarify your question? Which of the following questions are you asking?---

1) How do I set up WeatherDisplay so it uploads my station's data to my PC?

2) I have WD collecting data from my weather station and sending it to my PC. Now how do I upload my weather data to a web site?

or

3) WD is running on my PC and uploading data to my web site. Now how do I incorporate PHP/AJAX into my web pages?

Hi Kevin

Thanks for welcome

I have a weather station which is sending data ok to WeatherDisplay all works fine.

I then came across the Ajax / Saratoga scripts. I have downloaded what I think I need from the site and uploaded them to my web site the URL is http://gu6efb.shacknet.nu/wx/index.php its a mess with many error messages but I am now starting to understand how this works and iam enjoying playing hi. Is their a comprehensive manual anywhere?

Any help and advice is most welcome

The site is hosted on my own server using the Jana server software with PHP5 installed i carried out the recommend test to check PHP is working ok and I get the response as detailed on the website so AJAX should work ok

I also have weather satellite images from both APT, HRPT and Geo birds and from all received here with home built equipment and will include these when I have learnt to walk and understand the basics

Thanks again for any help

Keith

Keith,

I'd love to help, but I think there is an issue with your server at home . it is possibly infected with malware.  When I go to the URL you cited above, my Firefox reports
and I'm not disposed to go further to help you fix up the template installation.

Please do a virus/malware scan on your site, and a cleanup if necessary, then I'd be pleased to help fix issues with the template installation.

Best regards,
