Weather Display Live for the iPhone and Android

That is correct, if it is in clientraw, it will take that; why not fill the coordinates correctly in Weather Display?

Sietse

Good to hear.
min/max for day/month/year/alltime is on the list.

Sietse

Sietse,

Thanks for the explaination! This is not a big problem for me, but it’s always good to know how it’s working!

I’m attaching czech translation.


iwdl_lang_cz.js.zip (2.63 KB)

Great! It’s in development.

Any more languages? I will add your translation if you have one.

Good afternoon Sietse,
Upgraded to 0.8a last night with little issues. The wife and I really appreciate the hard work your doing with iWDL as it’s now becoming a regular (sudo) app she uses on her new iPhone. Is there a way you can pull the Radar and WebCam from Live Weather page and move it to the main page as option to turn on on/off there instead? The reason is we have “Live Weather” page configured to fit perfectly for a quick view without having to any scrolling. I got the Forecast to work with yr.no; however I’d prefer to use a url. I’m having an issue in screen size to fit the iPod with NWS as an iframe using:
settings[“forecast_url”] = “http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?site=mlb&smap=1&textField1=28.7892&textField2=-81.2757&TextType=2”;

Any suggestions in sizing the iframe? That would also help me with using WUnder Radar as it too is to big with:

 settings["radar"] = "http://radblast-aa.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/radar/WUNIDS_map?station=MLB&brand=wui&num=6&delay=30&type=N1R&frame=0&map.x=400&map.y=240&scale=0.248&centerx=634&centery=470&transx=234&transy=230&lat=28.7690&lon=-81.3411";  

Any luck in changing the Wind Direction Graph from degrees to “abbr” values coming soon as a fix/enhancement?

Also is there a way to turn on/off iPhone rotate page in your coding abilities? I ask as sometimes it shifts when you rally don’t want it to and all your coding looks GREAT in portrait.

Thanks again for all your hard work in this wonderful addition to our Weather Station.

I also have a problem with setting the correct coordinats in WD, some how the values change a bit and it misses my location with about 70 km. I have the correct coordinates in the iwdl_settings.js why can

I am just providing the means to put some url in the radar / webcam / forecast screen - the content is up to you.
So, either find a PDA / iPhone friendly url to put in the iframe, or create your own html file that fits the size of the iPhone screen.

For example, in iWDL the iframe contains the http://buienradar.mobi url that is optimized for PDA / smartphone usage.

For your radar info, either find a PDA/smartphone friendly URL, or create a html file that downsizes the picture.
In your case, for example, create a file called wuradar.html with the following content:


<html>
    <head>
    </head>
    <body>
      <img src='http://radblast-aa.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/radar/WUNIDS_map?station=MLB&brand=wui&num=6&delay=30&type=N1R&frame=0&map.x=400&map.y=240&scale=0.248&centerx=634&centery=470&transx=234&transy=230&lat=28.7690&lon=-81.3411' width='300'>
    </body>
</html>

and put that file in your iwdl directory.
Then set settings[“radar”] = http://www.lakemaryweather.com/iwdl/wuradar.html and you should be fine.
The trick is to set the image width to 300 - about the width of the iphone screen (it is 320 to be exact).

I will emphesize again: I provide the means to load other content in the iframes, it is up to the user to fill it with something that makes sense.

Hope this helps.

Sietse

PS. If somebody is willing to provide html and/or php pages that transforms popular sites to something that can be used in iWDL iframes, I am willing to incorporate it in iWDL as some kind of ‘plugin’.

Well, I am not sure I am doing things right in WD, but to me it seams that they do not want the position in decimal values… ?

this is my position taken with an iPhone app that shows different ways

Here is the place in WD where I think I can fill inn my coordinates

so, any suggestion on which value i fill inn? or why google marks my possition about 70 km north of where I am?

I seem to have a problem as well - no location at all in clientraw.
As said, I will make make values in settings override the clientraw values.

Well, I did. Please download http://sietse.net/iwdl/all.min.js to your iwdl directory, and settings should override clientraw.

Sietse

wow you are fast! That worked perfectly, I am now officially at the right position :slight_smile: thanks a lot.

Sietse,

I am doing some minor rearranging and moved my radar and webcam under the “forecast” icon. How can I delete the buttons on the “live weather” page. See my example here…

Thanks,

Jack

Sietse,
That worked perfectly for Radar. Thanks for explaining how to use ifame with iWDL.

If anyone is interested I found a good iWDL Forecast by using the National Weather Service Cell Phone (WAP) page at http://mobile.weather.gov. Once you search and find your local weather just take the URL from “Detailed 7-day Forecast” and put it in settings[“forecast_url”] within iwdl_settings (don’t forget to change settings[“forecast”] to “url”). It fits the iPhone iWDL Forecast screen perfectly!!!

Jerry, Detailed 7-day Forecast works great. :smiley: Thanks

the lat/long was added to WDto the clientraw files a while ago
I will have to check/add if that is in the Mac /linux version

Well it’s in my clientraw.txt but shows 53.06667 and 1.08 which is wrong
Should be 53.4 N and 1.5 west
The settings are right in weather display but wrong in clientraw
This explains why it’s wrong on the map.

its decimal

Okay doke but it’s still in the wrong place.

Okay doke2 after firing up my gps and finding it doesn’t work after the firmware upgrade I went back to internet.
Putting the my location in gave a different set of co-orindates so bingo it’s now right.

Sietse,

Will the opening picture only display if you put the application on the Springboard and not if you start it from Safari? That’s how it is here.
