This is a simple script that reads the current realtime.txt file and outputs the data contained within it as a simple WAP webpage. This is suitable for many Cell Phones.

TNET Cumulus Project Page

General Info

Like the Avatar and Banner scripts, this is a simple PHP5 script that reads the contents of the current realtime.txt file and outputs in WML format a simple WAP page with the contents of what was found.

In order to view this, you need to have a browser enabled to read WML formatted pages (FF has an addon that can do that, I think MSIE will do it already). Most cell phones can do this as well.

Settings:

Similar to the other scripts, the Settings section is fairly straight forward. This script does include some more settings that related to headers that are output for description, keywords etc...

Code: Select all

# CONFIGURATION INFORMATION
############################################################################
$SITE['version']        = "1.0";
$SITE['hloc']           = "./";
$SITE['datafile']       = "realtime.txt";
$SITE['sitename']       = "Mesa AZ USA - TNET Weather";
$SITE['keywords']       = 'Mesa AZ Weather, Weather, Mesa, AZ, wap, wml, xml';
$SITE['description']    = 'Mesa AZ, AZ, Mesa, Weather, TNET Services Inc.';
$SITE['author']         = 'TNETWap Wap Generation Script - TNET Services Inc.';
$SITE['copyright']      = '(c) 2008 TNET Services, Inc.';
$SITE['timezone']       = ' MST';
$SITE['cumulusver']     = "1.8.2";
$SITE['tempunit']       = " °F";     # ° = degree symbol
$SITE['rainunit']       = "in";
$SITE['barounit']       = " mb";
$SITE['windunit']       = " mph";

You would want to change the sitename, keywords and description to match your site. If you are using different units for Wind, Rain, Temp and pressure likewise.

IF you want to have a degree symbol output, you need to use the ° format.

Also, if your version of Cumulus changes, there is a setting for that as well since that is not included in the realtime.txt output.

If you place the script in the same directory that the realtime.txt file is uploaded to, it should run right out of the box. You would want to change the settings of course.

The following link is to an enhanced WAP page generated from Cumulus data using the XML fields script that I've been working on.

It allow basically all the fields that are available in the Cumulus tag list to be used including additional tags for information obtained from a selected Metar.

So the resulting page can have a lot more data than the original script above which only has data from the realtime.txt file.

Up and running this morning. If someone could test and see if it works on their phone it would be appreciated.
