Cumulus Support

They're in 1.9.2, on the 'View' menu.

At the moment my climate report is 10 point http://www.pc-king.co.uk/weather/climate.php and I would like to change it to 11 or 12 point. My css knowledge is non existent but wondered rather than mess with the existing css I could use inline instructions. Could someone show me the code to allow this - thanks

It looks like the font sizes are in the code rather than CSS. There's

<pre style="font-size: 9pt;">

which sets the size for the first (daily) table. Then further down, there are a number of these:

<PRE style="font-size: 10.0pt;

So I think you just need to change those.

Here is the relevant line in the php for the first one:

echo "<pre style=\"font-size: 9pt;\">\n";

I think the other table is something you've added yourself?

Steve -Thanks for the pointer. And yes the other table is purely guidance for a UK norm. (oops sent you a PM in error )

Done - always simple if you know how Thanks again Steve.
echo "<pre style=\"font-size: 11pt;\">\n"; fits just right

bug fix
Improved (optional) CSS and (optional) Menu systems.

wow. great script steve!

is there a way to edit the script if i have my noaa files in my root directory ie no sub directory?

i tried changing the line
to
or
''
.
./
/
""
but none of the above worked.

thanks for anyone's ideas.

Your 'existing' example does not exist ?
The 'CU' default option should be: Did you modify the VWS option instead ?

If the script is in the same directory as the reports (why ?)
Then: Should work !

You have given no info about your location, your operating system .... and no link to the errant page - people here can get pretty good at second guessing problems, but ....

OK.
I eventually found your site after trawling through the school portal (900 lines of code for the menus and page set-up )

I can find your Cumulus format reports http://www.maidenerleghweather.com/NOAAMO0911.txt, but I can't find the script (did you rename it ? or is it on the school server instead [won't work !])

Whoops.

I did rename it as

www.maidenerleghweather.com/noaa.php

and its just easier to upload the reports into the root.

is it possible?

I use go daddy hosting which copes with php 5.

my OS on my pc is xp.

I tried both those code edits without success.

when I create a directory and put the reports in it, then point the code at it, it all works, so I'm not far off.

I just don't want them in a folder.

any ideas?

well done for finding the reports too Steve.

apologies for the lack of clues, I thought the line of code was enough.

amazing detective work.

sorry again and thanks.

It should have been !

If I put your script in my reports directory - everything works without any glitch.


EDIT: The opendir() function has problems working in the 'root' directory.
It will probably work if you put in the server path to your web pages root:
eg. "/home/bert/public_html/"

If that doesn't work you will have to create a sub-directory for your reports.

Got mine all up and running on my website. Also have my data back dated to 2009.

Thank you for developing this script with easy to use instructions.

Any reason why you are using the 'old' version ?
