Hi, can someone check my web pages please> http://www.larrystein.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Weather/
Why is the station address in lower case when in cumulus they are capitalised?
What a wonderful way to view my data. I was putting of using the internet feature, but I'm very glad I finally did use it.
Thank you for a Marvellous piece of software.
Larry

Re: Web page generation? Help needed.
Ok! I sorted out the capitalisation problem.
Is it working for you?
Thanks
Larry

Re: Web page generation? Help needed.
That is because the content of the page is being formatted by a thing called a stylesheet (css).
There are two ways to change it.
The best way is to goto ...\Cumulus\webfiles and open the file weatherstyles.css with NOTEPAD.
Look for:and remove the line "text-transform: lowercase;"
Save the file, upload it (ftp) to your weather webspace - done
Keep a copy of it somewhere other than Cumulus, because it will be overwritten next time you install an update of Cumulus. That won't actually be obvious unless you have to replace the file on your weather webspace for some reason.

Re: Web page generation? Help needed.
Oh crap! What have I done now?
Where can I get a new index.html?
I think I have buggered up the index.html and now the indexT.html.
I should have backed them up before editing them.
Help!

Re: Web page generation? Help needed.
OK! So, I've reinstalled and lost my data. No biggy, I only had about a months worth anyway.
So, I've edited the .css file and now OK for caps.
But which file do I edit to change the way the page views? IE: Which file does cumulus update in it's entirety? Should I edit the index file on my server, the one in the cumulus folder or the indexT file?
Thanks Again
Larry

Re: Web page generation? Help needed.
It's the template file - the one with the "T" in it that you need to edit. Bear in mind that while the Cumulus installer doesn't do anything to your data folder when you reinstall it, it does overwrite the template files.

Re: Web page generation? Help needed.
Yes! Got it sorted now.
I was expecting the update to happen with the very next update. But it didn't update the whole page until the second round of updates.
Thanks for your help.

Re: Web page generation? Help needed.
Ah! Now my gauges have gone silly.
I haven't even looked at gauges.htm. I don't understand how it could have got corrupted.
Any help?
Larry
PS: No worries. I've found my mistake and fixed it.
Thanks Again.
