What, like this?: http://weather.wilmslowastro.com/test/t ... mes24h.php

Doesn't work for me, if I select London & SE from your drop down and then return to the page later it displays UK and not my London & SE.

Sorry Mark, ok, using WaterFox/FireFox with cookies enabled. I'm not even seeing a cookie for your site in the list. Also just tried with IE and Chrome with similar result.

Odd, works in Chrome and IE for me on both my test page and my today/yesterday page...

I've fiddled for ages to try and get the extremes script to work, but with no success.

Heres my link to the script - http://www.nantwich-weather.co.uk/ukExtremes24h.php

My settings -

Code: Select all

class ukExtremes24h {

    // Data Source
    private $urlBase = 'http://datapoint.metoffice.gov.uk/public/data/txt/wxobs/ukextremes/json/';
    private $apiKey = '2a7383b4-52a6-4c81-a0b8-77795464f1af';              // Your Met Office DataPoint API key
    private $cachePath = 'cache';   // Cache directory without trailing slash

    private $cacheFile = 'ukExtremes24h.json';              // Cache file name
    private $cacheTime  = 3600;                             // Cache expiration time Default: 3600 seconds = 1 Hour
    private $logging = true;                                // Logs information messages as comments in your HTML

    private $rawData = array();                             // Used internally to hold status and raw DataPoint data
    private $cache = 'cache';                                    // Used internally to hold full cache file name

also Mark met office weather forecast script is looking good, look forward to trying it.

Hi Darren, nothing is being sent back to the browser, so you need to check the php error log on your server to see what is going on.

I have the cookie in Chrome and FireFox but it does not remember my choice.

What are the cookie contents? It should just be the two character code for the selected region.

Hi Mark, bit of a delay in replying to You.

I've now got logging activated by my ISP and this is what i get back:

Code: Select all

88.104.86.206 - - [04/Apr/2015:16:06:08 +0100] "GET /ukExtremes24h.php HTTP/1.0" 200 - "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/41.0.2272.118 Safari/537.36"

It means nothing to Me. Any ideas?

Hi Darren, it looks like that is the HTTP access log from the web server, you need the error log to see if anything is going wrong in PHP.

You can try adding the following lines to the top of the PHP script - just after the "<?php" line. The problem is they may not show anything if the script is failing to parse/compile for some reason.

Code: Select all

error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', '1');

I have the test script for UK extremes working for UK and region SE England here. http://www.tottonweather.co.uk/testUkExtremes24h.phpHowever when a region is selected from the dropdown box nothing happens!
This was the case with the original download.

Is some further coding needed here? Any help appreciated.

Your page is missing the jquery script. It has...

Code: Select all

<script src="public_html/js/jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

but jquery.js is not found on your server.

Posted: **Mon 17 Sep 2018 9:48 pm**

That's really odd because it is in there checking Filezilla. Here is a copy from the server

jquery.zip

I'm on my phone so can't easily check things, but I suspect you need to remove the "public_html" bit from the URL.
