Hi folks,
I am trying to switch to Steel Gauges and leaving WD-Live. So far so good. I’ve made it possible to get the page running.
One problem, I couldn’t solve is that the customclientraw.txt file - produced by WD - is encoded in ANSI. Here in Germany we have
which version of WD are you using?
10.37S b12 ?
try the latest .zip update (build 15)
Didn’t solve the problem. Now there is a syntax error. See for yourself: http://www.epfenbachwetter.de/WDlive/gauges-ss-basic.htm
it might not like some of the characters in
http://www.epfenbachwetter.de/WDlive/customclientraw.txt
try another .zip update download
Downloaded the actual one. Still get the same parse error. :?
that will be then that the steel gauges script does not like the characters you have I would suggest
the actual customclientraw.txt should be in UTF8 in the WD web files folder, yes?
I can see that the special characters in the customclientraw.txt are good. My guess is that the byte order mark at the beginning could be what is messing up the parsing :dontknow:
maybe he sould try with the default customclientrawlocal.txt again and then go from there?
Right. I think I would kill the upload, and then manually edit the file to see what Steel can and can’t accept.
I am now using the WD version that created the UTF8 customclientraw and steel gauges is working OK for me
Where are the gauges and customclientraw?

Interesting, as downloaded with wget yours (top one) doesn’t have a byte order mark, but Epfenbachwetter’s does. Maybe a server set up thing?
So I did. I grabbed the original customclientrawlocal.txt form the Steel Gauges project side and I also downloaded your new ZIP-Update. And guess what… It works! 8)
Thank you all for your great help. thumbsup

Here you can see the full implementation in my homepage. Have a look at “Livewetter”.
Thanks again.
Very nice, I see your umlauts are working well
