If you go to http://www.westhopeuk.info/weather/WU-forecast.php you will see a Weather Forecast for what I THINK is your area.

It would help if you told us where WEST HOPE is, I.E county, etc etc.

Icons are being uploaded now and I am now intergrating that into a PHP Cumulus webpage.

Thank you

Right - Armed with additional information as to where it is..... I am now uploading a corrected WU-forecast.php with the correct forecast.

Your webhost is extremely slow...... So it could take a while before you notice the difference.

Complain or Moan and I will cease transfer of files and cease work.

Your 5 Day Forecast - As requested - http://www.westhopeuk.info/weather/forecast.php

Could you PLEASE download the attached file in the posting, unzip it and place the forecast.php in the 'Cumulus' 'Web' folder. Then could you open up the Cumulus Console, Internet Settings, Files and click browse and select the 'forecast.php' and click 'Open'. Could you then enter a url in the box alongside of 'forecast.php'. Then could you please click the 'Process' and 'FTP' box.

Then could you please 'Force' a Web update.

Then navigate to the following webpage http://www.westhopeuk.info/weather/forecast.php

And you will see it has all the Header Data and Site name.

To ensure you can access it from the navigation bar at the bottom, you will need to add the following to 'EACH' xxxxT.htm file!

Please insert - :<a href="forecast.php">forecast</a>:

Let me know how you get on.

I decided against using the cumuluswebtags.php at the moment, as I just want to get him up and running with a Forecast webpage (As it seems the community of West Hope is impatient) - I will work on that later

Is the file being processed and uploaded by Cumulus?

Could I see a screenshot of the Internet settings please.

Also, dont forget to add the forecast to the nav bar!

I shall test the template on my site - you can see it at http://www.weeleyweatherstation.info/forecast.php

Thank you, could you add a '/' to the forecast.php in the remote filename please.

And we'll see if it works then. Mines working as instructed.

Right - Could you turn on FTP Logging, Force a webupdate, Close down Cumulus, Send me the FTPLOG.txt and restart Cumulus please.

We will get to the bottom of this.
