OK i have it working, not the way you or BT have shown however.

bt-sager.php and sager_test.php worked when called directly.
bt-sager-wc.php showed the 24-48 forecast - though with "document.write" in front of it.

now using the code:

Code: Select all

<a href = "./bt-sager.php" style = "text-decoration:none;" target = "_blank"><b><font color = "#FF0000" face = "Tahoma" size = "4"><script src = "./bt-sager-wc.php"></script></font></b></a></p>

refuses to show a thing on my index.htm page. just totally blank.

I then thought why not use

Code: Select all

<?php include('./bt-sager-wc.php');?>

I then reformated the last line like so:

Code: Select all

//echo "document.write ('$sf');";
echo "$sf";

I then had an issue with the php code being commented out by the server!!!.  a quick google search shows I needed to add the following into my .htaccess file

Code: Select all

AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm

it now works as intended!

You do realise that:
.htaccess file

Code: Select all

AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm

Means that all htm / html files from that directory down can execute php without having to have .php extension ?

Something seems to have changed, because when I tried your bt-sager-wc.php before it did NOT give the forecast in any 'style' but it DID give what should have been the (html) commented out debug stuff as page content ???











All very odd.

Try this in .htaccess

Code: Select all

<IfModule mime_module>
  AddHandler application/x-httpd-ea-php73___lsphp .php .php7 .phtml
</IfModule>

Tbh: if users must start editing their htaccess to accomplish things, I think that is not OK and it should not be propagated by any support but to some specialised users. Htaccess is a sensitive tool and as far as I can see, most users are not fit to meddle with it creating moore problems than they solve.
But OK, that's only IMHO.

It's a universal way of getting PHP to work in .htm and .html pages. It's either that, or you change your files to .php

Whether you think it's ok or not, is irrelevant.

I am fully aware of that, but it does not stop me from expressing me. You never know...

Though of course rather than globally processing all htm(l) files as beteljuice pointed out, it may better to just enable it for the one file - index.htm in this case?

I just remembered ...

I wonder if the strange response to the script call (mime-type) is something 'new' to watch out for

If you have strict MIME type enforcement, yes - though I think it is a web server thing rather than PHP?
I would try changing the <script> HTML to load a .js file (thus keeping the JS MIME type correct)...

Code: Select all

<script src = "./bt-sager-wc.js"></script>

Then add a translation in the .htaccess from the js to php file - which would then be passed to the PHP processor without any requirement for further fiddling in the .htaccess file.

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule bt-sager-wc.js$    bt-sager-wc.php [NC,L]

Edit: 13 Dec 2020 - BTJ is back on board and has a new release available on the original topic (link lower down)

I have no idea if there is any compatibility beteween the versions - It would be best to assume not !!!

The beteljuice was busy while I was away. Thanks for your hard work while I was away.

BTJ,

Near novice here. Is Sager solid enough to use? I tired it and got nothing really:

Works perfectly as you can see here https://www.dmjsystems.co.uk/weatherbos/index.php but your problem is that if you do an F12 to load the page you are getting a 404 on bt-sager-wc.php which means you have not followed the instructions correctly and uploaded al of the code required as that does not exist on your server.

And here it is working in a CMX website

I don't see what's missing...but hoping something is to clear up this mystery.
