Cumulus Support

Hi all.

I want to get this implemented on my site:
- Number of days since the last solstice
- Number of days until the next solstice.
- How much longer (or shorter) the day is since the last solstice. (daylength based on sunrise and sunset. Longitude and latitude are also essential to calculate this correctly)

Like:
Today is 45 days since last solstice and 137 days until next solstice
The day is 4 hours an 34 min longer than last solstice.

It seems that Cumulus not can provide webtags for this, so this must be calculated in another way.
I think this is possible to achieve in PHP or Javascript. I'm no expert at writing code, so I need help to get ahead.

I have tried to find examples of code to calculate this, but have so far found nothing that can help me further.

I would appreciate if someone can provide example code for this.

You could use this site. http://mycountdown.org/My_Countdown/My_ ... wn/widget/

I've used it to add a equinox countdown on mine. But it only counts down. You might struggle to find something that tells you how long ago something occured.

But it only counts down

Once the event is past they count up as well

Winter: http://mycountdown.org/tag.php?tag=winter+solstice
vernal: http://mycountdown.org/tag.php?search=equinox

UTC times of events: http://aa.usno.navy.mil/data/docs/EarthSeasons.php

Clearly I didn't leave my winter solstice countdown running long enough. I changed the code on 21 Dec to a equinox countdown.
