JavaScript WDL version 1.0.0 alpha.

I used to be that way too, didn’t switch to Firefox* when that was all the rage, but Chrome was the iceberg that sank my IE :lol:

*Haven’t tried the latest Firefox which has very good reviews.

IE is still supported and I do get security updates for it.

A very nice update Yerren, many thanks :smiley:

Just so you know, I didn’t change anything in the .html or config files, just reloaded my page and the new version appeared.

I have one very minor improvement to suggest:

  • Nice to see that the rainfall graphs are now auto-scaling according to rainfall received
  • However, it would look better if the vertical axis was scaled in whole mm, or even better, in 10’s of mm

At present, my vertical axis has the following graduations: 20.25, 40.5, 60.75 and 81mm which look a little odd.

It’s a very minor point though, bordering on nit-picking and the other improvements can’t be faulted IMO.

I use Chrome only where necessary, for example with my video surveillance system which doesn’t work properly under Firefox.

However, the new Firefox Quantum is still my browser of choice, mainly because of the huge number of add-ons you can use. It’s also blazingly fast as the reviews have stated.

The refresh of chrome worked

Thanks

Nice job Yerren! =D> Had to Shift-F5 to get the screen refreshed. Looks very nice and the new green color is much easier to see - THANK YOU!

Oh sweet! :slight_smile: That makes life a little easier…

Good idea, I’ll add that in to the next update, it does look cleaner that way!

And for the TO DO pile, have the Graphs exclude the UV and/or Solar graphs if they have been disabled in the config.js file.

Hi Yerren

Not sure if you done it in the last update, but i note now the page auto scales when you rotate on a phone or table now and the whole page is displaying.

Looks good.

Aha, well spotted. Works for me too.

Mobile rotation was mentioned in the changelog :wink:

I am glad you’ve noticed it so fast!

You are not alone, IE11 here too, my favourite browser.
Must be updated version.
Hangs on collecting…
Used to work.

I checked out links in this thread and all are hanging except those two from leudalweer.nl

Is there a difference in versions?

Interesting, one big difference is that leudalweer.nl is hosting some of the javascript files on the local server.

The only thing I can’t stand about FF is the updates. Sometimes it is as bad as Flash updates. When I need some quick info I click on FF and get that annoying “please wait while FF installs updates”.

if the javascript files are copied to a local directory and the html code changed to point to those files
then it should work in a local directory? (i.e your own server on your pc or your own web site)?

Great job, Yerren. Worked out of the box on Chrome (but not IE11, as mentioned above).

Only problem is my UV bar seems to have slipped a bit. What have I done wrong?

P.S. Yes, I have UV but no solar!


I will check out what is going on with IE when I have time. Hopefully it’s a simple problem that can be fixed, it is nice to have full browser support :slight_smile:

Haha I hadn’t actually considered this combination… I’m sure it’s not something you are doing. I will check it out and get back to you :slight_smile:

I see from checking IE 11 in developers mode here are the errors I see.

It’s appalling that MS cannot adhere to the same browser standards that everyone else does.

I haven’t used IE since version 6 (the default browser provided with Win XP). It has become more and more crappy with each subsequent release. The Edge browser provided with Win 10 goes a long way to make up for this sad decline, but it still has too much of the intrusiveness that is a hallmark of MS these days. They’ve completely ruined Skype also, but that’s another sad story…
