Just Noticed that on my web Cumulus is showin the Date of 11-September-2008, and doesn't appear to be correct information showing compared to the stations screen, this appears to happen after a couple of ours of running, also when this happens the mouser over screen tips in gauges show only has HTML, I am using Windows XP Home with only easyweather and Cumulus running

Your date seems to be OK now?

As for the mouseovers on the gauges, they do look rather odd. I didn't write the code for those myself so it'll take me a little while to work out what the problem is. I notice that degree symbols on your site are not displaying correctly - in my browser anyway. I can't explain that.

I've just noticed I have the mouseover problem on my site too. Very odd.

Edit: And having refreshed the browser window, the problem went away. I really have no idea why that is, as I said I didn't write the javascript code for the gauges, and to be honest I'm not a javascript expert.

Your site still has the problem with the degree symbols, I don't know why that is - something to do with your web server, or your ftp server, having problems with characters with the top bit set?

Perhaps I should be using ° for the degree symbol - that's how the wind bearing is done, and that displays OK on your site.
