VP console with real time update

[Axelvold]

Weather data is displayed in a Davis Vantage Pro2 Console, see screen dump.

Page use the version 2.20 of ajaxWDwx.js and testtags.php and you need to have the real time clientraw update enabled in WD.

Very Neat..and it works too

If you use this so will the console page open up just like the screen dump I posted.

Code: [Select]

<a target="_blank" href="vp_console.php" title="VP Console" onclick="window.open(this.href, '', 'width=896,height=554,scrollbars=no,status=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no'); return false">VP Console</a>

Hi Axelvold

Great work! But I cant get buttons on the console working  

Best regards,

Henrik

Ps. An idea could be to have ajax print the current icon too?

[Axelvold]

Does any one know how I could extract the icons from the real console and save them as images?

<span style="font-family: arial, san serif; font-size: 20px; color: #003366; float: left; position: absolute; top: 82px; left: 255px;"><?echo $noaacityname;?></span>
<span class="ajax" id="ajaxdate" style="font-family: arial, san serif; font-size: 20px; color: #003366; float: left; position: absolute; top: 82px; left: 355px;"><?echo $date;?></span>
<span class="ajax" id="ajaxtime" style="font-family: arial, san serif; font-size: 20px; color: #003366; float: left; position: absolute; top: 82px; left: 455px;"><?echo $time;?></span>
<span class="ajax" id="ajaxconditionicon2" style=" float: left; position: absolute; top:66px; left: 542px;"><?php print $forecasticons; ?></span>

I've seen this done using Weatherflash on a couple of websites, can this be done using Weather Display and a VP2 console image for a background?

I just put the 2 files on my webserver and it works ok here... http://travelingrvwx.com/vp_console.php

I'm in the progress of making the buttons on the console to work. 

Take a peek at my website, click on VP Console in the menu to the left.

When I'm finished I will make it available in this thread.
