clientrawdriven page

[pinto]

I'm working on page you only have to put in the same folder as your clientraw files.It is in a pre-Alpha stadion but I sure will share it.
You can see it here: link removed


I am no programmer, just experimenting and putting things together I did find on the net

Wow, that's a great start

I've actually been thinking of turning the client raw on.... and using AJAX to make the main page "live" but without using any third pary software (like Flash).

Unfortunately, it looks like June will be the earliest I'll be able to play with it.

Interesting ideas though, eh?!

[pinto]

made some modifications (see first post) for those who are interested)

I think you've missed the semi-colon at the end of all the &nbsp's!

[pinto]

thanks, will take a look at it

Hey! I've been looking for that compass point code for my abbreviated StormTrac report.

Thanks!

  // figure out a text value for compass direction
   switch (TRUE) {
     case (($winddir >= 349) and ($winddir <= 360)):
       $winddir = 'N';
     break;
     case (($winddir >= 0) and ($winddir <= 11)):
       $winddir = 'N';
     break;
     case (($winddir > 11) and ($winddir <= 34)):
       $winddir = 'NNE';
     break;
     case (($winddir > 34) and ($winddir <= 56)):
       $winddir = 'NE';
     break;
     case (($winddir > 56) and ($winddir <= 78)):
       $winddir = 'ENE';
     break;
     case (($winddir > 78) and ($winddir <= 101)):
       $winddir = 'E';
     break;
     case (($winddir > 101) and ($winddir <= 124)):
       $winddir = 'ESE';
     break;
     case (($winddir > 124) and ($winddir <= 146)):
       $winddir = 'SE';
     break;
     case (($winddir > 146) and ($winddir <= 169)):
       $winddir = 'SSE';
     break;
     case (($winddir > 169) and ($winddir <= 191)):
       $winddir = 'S';
     break;
     case (($winddir > 191) and ($winddir <= 214)):
       $winddir = 'SSW';
     break;
     case (($winddir > 214) and ($winddir <= 236)):
       $winddir = 'SW';
     break;
     case (($winddir > 236) and ($winddir <= 259)):
       $winddir = 'WSW';
     break;
     case (($winddir > 259) and ($winddir <= 281)):
       $winddir = 'W';
     break;

       $winddir = 'NNW';

       $winddir = '';
     break;

It's much easier to read now, although I think there's too much data presented on one page. It needs splitting across a number of pages and probably some graphics adding.

One minor point (which you probably know about)...the pressure values in the left hand column overlap the main body of page. That's using FF1.51 if it makes a difference.

thank you for your comments, I did't check it in FF(will do that), just IE

It's looking good. I like the graphs. I've played with jpgraph before and it's a very powerful package. I just wish I had enough free time to experiment with it some more!

[niko]

Yep, great progress.

maybe this can give you a start ?

see attached file
You can see it working here(just wait more than one minute and watch the time behind the location)

OMG! I knew it was pretty simple but not -that- simple!

Now I need a couple of hours to build a page. Cool!
