didnt work here…
Hang tight…I’m sure Curly will have this resolved very shortly.
Mark, your server does not have permission to create files.
I logged in and CHMOD your “web” folder to 777, ran AtomFeed.php and it created the files, then I CHMOD the “web” folder back to 715.
Working fine here Thanks :lol:
#-o LOL…Thanks again Mike. I see its working.
OK Back again…
Fixed the blank spaces in the URL.
Instead of downloading the zip file, copy the code here http://www.weather.ricksturf.com/scripts/AtomFeed.php?sce=view
As a side note, if you have a problem with the script or web page, please post a link.
Thanks
Curly
Mike went in and changed my permissions and that fixed it. Thanks.
Great!
Glad it’s working…
Great script! Thanks. I’m a little confused after reading the docs as what I have to do to get the the warning box part to work so that it has the icon next to it. I know I need to include AtomsFeed.php but I’m not sure of where I need to place some other code (tags). Can someone provide me the exact code I need and where it needs to be placed and in what file.
Thanks,
John
In your index.php, place this at the top just under your
<?php print $alert_box; ?>
Be sure you have called the AtomArray.php file too
Michael
Okay got the short term forecast to show. The warning box is not showing around. How do I get this to show and text centered?
Thanks,
John
This is controlled by your css file.
If you have $use_CLcss set to “true”, then the “advisoryBox” is used in your CSS file. I see that yours is commented out by the //. I would check there first for the formatting and uncomment.
John,
Your CSS file doesn’t have “advisoryBox” and that is what the script uses. There are two alternatives.
Find this
$alert_bocks = '<div class="advisoryBox">' . $alert_bocks . '</div>';
and change “advisoryBox” to “advisorybox” or “advisorybox1” or “advisoryBox2”
or you can use a defaulted box if you change $use_CLcss = true; to false.
FOr some of us its just a bit more time consuming figuring it all out. I’ve placed everything on my server. Nothing is working.
Chris,
I see that you’ve got something going…http://www.cwksr.com/AtomSummary.php
Let me know what you need/want to do. I’d be glad to assist you
Michael
Pretty common issue …
It might be a good idea if the script used a general data area and used that to create files in. that way you can keep it at 0777 and not have to deal with it,
You can add a simple index.php file in that directory to keep out snoopers like:
<?php
header ("Location: /index.php");
?>
Just a quick question…
How often does it check for updates? I can force the update by going to Atomfeed.php. Its been little over 3 hours since last update. Thanks.
You could run the Atomfeed from a crontab and set for how often you want it to check for updates. Say every 15 minutes.
AtomFeed.php needs to be called by a cron job every 15 minutes or so.
Some hosters don’t offer crons but Mike Challis has a program that uses the Window$ Task Scheduler to perform this action reliably.
