Home Page working

Post by griffo42 »

Hi

The attachment is a shot of my home page.

I would like to :

1. Reload my Home page automatically every say 30 seconds (but be able to vary this in the light of experience);
2. Have that reload time reflected in the heading (eg Sunday 29.05/16 at 99:99:99.
3. Move that which comes after Obser..... and Forec.......... at the top of the table to show after the update info. in 2. above.
4. reset the Updated 9 sec ago to zero on update.

The setting that I have in Cumulus Internet settings for realtime interval is 10 sec.

Thanks

Keith G

Your data is being checked every three seconds or so. Why do you want to (meta) refresh the entire page every thirty seconds ?
2. Have that reload time reflected in the heading (eg Sunday 29.05/16 at 99:99:99.
On a successful (new) data grab that would be the case.
4. reset the Updated 9 sec ago to zero on update.
... again that should be happening.
The setting that I have in Cumulus Internet settings for realtime interval is 10 sec.
The 'problem' is that your realtime data is being updated every five minutes !

As beteljuice indicates your data is not current with realtime changing every 5 minutes http://www.kstwx.net/wxstatus.php. I presume you are uploading the template's CUtags.php file and have you set that at the realtime interval in the extra files setting? The other times are also outdated.

Hi Beteljuice and PaulMy

Thanks for your replies.

Unfortunately I am a self taught novice at programming.

Could you please tell me what I have to change to get my site updating each 5 minutes and show the status in the 3 areas as being current.

Apologies for my lack of competence in this: I just don't know where to look and what to change despite my looking for quite some time now.
