I have an observation on the new gauge window. When the full screen option is pressed the scroll bar is still required to see the scrolling data at the bottom of the window. I'm running on a laptop with a res of 1280*800. Would that be the reason?

Probably. I'm not sure what height is needed to see it all at once, but it's probably a bit more than 800 pixels.

And once full screen is chosen the button text should say "revert" or something similar. Sorry to be picky.

Yes, I know, I had code in to do that, but because there are multiple ways you can return from full screen it was too complicated to change the text back again. I may have a look at it again at some point.

Notice the scroll bars on most sites including mine, found this site and no scroll bars on page. Any explanations?

Do you mean the extra scroll bars that you get in IE? I had to add scroll bars to the application to make sure it was all viewable in all browsers in all situations; it seems that this results in two sets of scroll bars sometimes in IE, unfortunately. I guess they don't appear on that site because of the way it's been embedded in the page. If someone can tell us exactly what it is that has that effect, we can maybe change the default page to do the same. My powers of HTML aren't up to working it out.

.... I guess they don't appear on that site because of the way it's been embedded in the page.

A quick look-see suggests simply that it is in a container of a predetermined size.
It shouldn't matter if it's a <table> or <div> as long as it has at least one width or height value.

The Silverlight app is declared as 100%, so it fills any 'parent' container it is in. (like 'Flash')

.... I think

Looking at your realtime.txt file and refreshing repeatedly, I think this error occurs when your realtime.txt file is being updated and becomes empty briefly. I thought my code coped with this, but maybe not - I'll have to have a look at it. Is it not possible for you to use the 'rename' option, which is designed to prevent this sort of thing?

Hi Steve,
i turned on rename
i also chad the interval so it mach my realtime match
thanks beau

I think it is because of the accents of words in Spanish.

I've uploaded a new version of the xml file (same file, saved in UTF-8 format) in this thread, which should allow you to use accented characters:
