Cumulus wind direction problem with <#currentwdir> tag

[ntinos]

Hi
I have download the newest version and i make some tags,the tag
<#currentwdir> i will see the direction with name N-NNE-NE-ENE-E like console e.t.c
The program cannot read the NNE-ENE-ESE-SSE-SSW-WSW-WNW-NNW e.t.c only read the N-NE-E-SE-S-SW-W-NW
There is possibility the solved this error ?

Thank you

Edit: I tried this tag <#wdir> average 10 minute,and work fine,but i would like to have the Current (latest) wind bearing .

Sorry, I don't understand. What do you think the error is? Cumulus doesn't read the output from the web tag. I don't think I've changed the code for that web tag for a long time.

Do you mean you are using JavaScript to 'decode' ?

If so, current direction can only be resolved to what your wx kit gives out - although average could give a figure in the middle.

I mean if my console show wind NNE or ENE e.t.c with this tag <#currentwdir> do not can see ,and output show nothing.Work fine only if my console it show N-NE-E-SE-S-SW-W-NW

With this tag <#wdir> can read example everything wind bearing,but it is average.

No java script ,i make php script,for this reason i make the script with tags,and only this <#currentwdir> do not have correlation with console at all bearing.

Oh, I see. I can't think how that would happen. All it does is take the current wind bearing (as shown on the Cumulus main screen and in the <#bearing> web tag, and convert it to a compass point. It does the same thing for the average direction. Let me do some tests...

Edit: What does the Cumulus screen show?

Ok Steve ,thank you
The Cumulus screen show very correct like my console bearing.

It's working fine for me:

There's nothing in the code that could stop it working for the intermediate compass positions, it just converts the bearing to a number from 0 to 15 and then indexes an array. I'm afraid I have no idea why it doesn't work for you. Are you using a strings.ini file? Can you attach your file with the web tag in it?

[ntinos]

Hi Steve
Sorry my mistake i do not used a strings.ini file
Now all is fine.
Thanks a lot.

You don't need to use a strings.ini file, only if you want to change the text. But if that has apparently fixed it for you, that's fine, even if I don't really understand how.
