Earth view - can this be embedded in my website?

Post by RayProudfoot »

I find this site very interesting and would like to embed a CURRENT image into my website which is updated every 15 minutes.

This is the url I have to display that image…

https://fourmilab.ch/cgi-bin/Earth?img= ... 6948.34564

The Customise page is here but I don’t have sufficient knowledge to know if what I would like to do is feasible. https://fourmilab.ch/earthview/custom.html

The other question is the impact on my website usage. Might it exceed my allowance? And being with HostPresto how do I find that?

Thanks for any help.
Cheers,
Ray, Cheshire.

@RayProudfoot

Go to my website (top one in the banner) and click on Almanac/Sun/Moon Almanac. You will see what you want as you scroll down when you get there.

The html that I have used is:
code for Ray.zip
Hope this helps.

I've managed to enbed most of your code into my home page and I'm happy to report the map is now showing up in all its glory! :D

I see dawn is about to break in your part of the world.

Many thanks for your help. :clap:
