Thanks to Steve and others for help with this. I finally got it to display the way I hoped for. When you are dealing with a neophyte in the world of websites and html and script writing, explanations from those in the know take some time and experimentation to finally understand. Thanks to all! As a side note, I had hoped to change the 2nd temp displayed after the "/" so it would display "apparent" temp, so I entered the text field of "apparent" from my build of Cumulus(1.9.1build 962) which says it is in field 55. It displayed 0.0. I then poked around and finally got "apparent" to display properly using field 54. Now I may try to use the updated image files from the other "Bob", if I can figure out how to get the images into the Gadget folder.......

In the realtime file, scripts read the first field as 0, so you are right to use 54.

I've numbered from 1 in the documentation, because that's how humans count. Computers sometimes count from zero, sometimes from 1, sometimes from something else...
