Can I build a simple status tag txt file with a calculation on it.
Looking here to just add a percentage of Davis Vantage Pro 2 reception to the txt file.
IE:
Current file is: ( just call it radio dot text)
Total Packets Received: <#DavisTotalPacketsReceived> • Total Packets Missed: <#DavisTotalPacketsMissed> • CRC Errors: <#DavisNumCRCerrors> • ReSynchs: <#DavisNumberOfResynchs> • MaxInARow: <#DavisMaxInARow> • Battery: <#txbattery>
I want to calculate percentage using this forumula. Just putting it in the text file doesn't do any calculation and just shows the values from the webtags.
(((<#DavisTotalPacketsReceived>/(<#DavisTotalPacketsReceived>+<#DavisTotalPacketsMissed>))*100)
I am guessing that I am not doing this right or I cannot do this?
Any suggestions?

Re: Text file with tags and a calculation
You will need to do the calculation in either a JavaScript file in the clients browser or in a PHP script file on your web server.
I'm on my phone at the no so can't post examples.

Re: Text file with tags and a calculation
Thank you Mark.
So using the example (and I know I am wrong right now) it would be something like:
<?php
require_once("cumulusradio.php");
echo $time;
echo "<br/>";
Echo "Current Radio Reception: " & "(($DavisTotalPacketsReceived/$DavisTotalPacketsMissed)+$DavisTotalPacketsReceived)100)"& %"
?>
Went to looking at banner php stuff and testing it; it works fine on my webserver.
Looking at integrating Cumulus stuff with my automation stuff here for a little status mini banner of sorts.
