Realtime Gauges not displaying

Hi all,
New to Cumulus so please excuse any naivity!

Have successfully installed Cumulus 1.9.2 build 1032 and Cumulus Toolbox and mostly running fine.

I'm having trouble getting the realtime gauge to display on the web pages - it shows as a blank section on the page but the object frame is there. The realtime.txt file is present in the .../weather2 folder and contains apparently current realtime data. I haven't been able to find any other solution through forum searching.

The page is at http://www.mysamford.com.au/weather2/index.htm and an original Cumulus Gauges page with the same problem is at http://www.mysamford.com.au/weather2/gauges.htm.

Any help appreciated!

Thanks! :D

Cheers
...Steve

You haven't put the entire contents of the Cumulus webfiles folder onto your web site. For the Flash gauges, you're missing the CumulusRealtime.swf file.

Thanks for the prompt reply, Steve.

The CumulusRealtime.swf file is under weather2/webfiles - is this not correct?

Your page (like the 'standard' Cumulus page) expects it to be in the same directory as the page itself. If you want to put it in a subdirectory called 'webfiles' you'll need to look for the code in the page where it loads the swf file, and modify it.
