Sunrise and sunset times are switched on homepage

Post by Bobbien333 »

I have a 2 questions. On my page and in the cumulus software, I noticed at the top, the sunrise and sunset times are switched. How can that be fixed?
Also, my page will only update if I refresh, not if I leave it up and it changes. Is that suppose to be? I thought realtime did that.

I uploaded a pic of what I trying to explain. Please help.

Thank you

You haven't entered your co-ordinates correctly:

Latitude N 28° 09' 45" Longitude E 81° 28' 36"

You're WEST of the meridian, not East.

Also, my page will only update if I refresh, not if I leave it up and it changes. Is that suppose to be? I thought realtime did that.
There's nothing in the supplied web pages which makes them automatically update. The only way to do that in HTML is to use a 'meta refresh' to update the whole page, and that's not very nice and is against W3C recommendations. If you want the data to refresh you will need to use something like Ajax.

Thank you Steve, you're the bomb. I didn't even realize my mistake.

Also, I didn't mean to offend anyone asking the question if my site was suppose to auto update or not. I don't know the rules and regulations, that is why I asked. I simply didn't know. Not to be mean or not nice.
