Hi Giacomo, I also posted this answer to the same questions you posed on

Hello, I'm Giacomo and I use the italian-world-cumulus version of Saratoga Template. I would ask you 3 little things.
1st)I would like to change the colours of the minimal and maximal temperatures in index.php(both "today" and "yesterday")respectively in blue and red.
You would need to change the ajax-dashboard.php script to insert inline CSS directives for the colors you want.
Change ajax-dashboard.php
Code: Select all
<tr>
<td style="text-align: right;"><strong><?php langtrans('High:'); ?></strong></td>
<td style="text-align: center;">
<span class="ajax" id="ajaxtempmax">
<?php echo strip_units($maxtemp) . $uomTemp; ?>
</span><br />
<?php echo fixup_time($maxtempt); ?>
</td>
<?php if(isset($maxtempyest)) { ?>
<td style="text-align: center;"><?php
echo strip_units($maxtempyest) . $uomTemp; ?>
<br />
<?php echo fixup_time($maxtempyestt); ?>
</td>
<?php } ?>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="text-align: right;"><strong><?php langtrans('Low:'); ?></strong></td>
<td style="text-align: center;">
<span class="ajax" id="ajaxtempmin">
<?php
echo strip_units($mintemp) . $uomTemp; ?>
</span><br />
<?php echo fixup_time($mintempt); ?>
</td>
<?php if(isset($mintempyest)) { ?>
<td style="text-align: center;"><?php
echo strip_units($mintempyest) . $uomTemp; ?>
<br />
<?php echo fixup_time($mintempyestt); ?>
</td>
<?php } ?>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
to
Code: Select all
<tr>
<td style="text-align: right;"><strong><?php langtrans('High:'); ?></strong></td>
<td style="text-align: center; color: red">
<span class="ajax" id="ajaxtempmax">
<?php echo strip_units($maxtemp) . $uomTemp; ?>

2nd)The pressure is rising, the arrrow is correct and green, but below i can read "stabile", which is the correct translation of "steady", but the problem is that the pressure is "rising slowly". I think this happens only when the pressure is rising "slowly", when it is "rapidly" it doesn't happen, but I'm note sure about this last thing.how can i do?
When the page first loads, the dashboard displays the values of $baro, $trend and $pressuretrendname variables. These are set in the CU-defs.php file using
Code: Select all
$baro = $WX['press'];
$trend = $WX['presstrendval'];
$pressuretrendname = $WX['presstrend'];
so it is the Cumulus values for those variables that are used.
When the ajaxCUwx.js script begins execution, the realtime.txt is read and uses
Code: Select all
//Pressure...
var pressure = convertBaro(realtime[10]);
set_ajax_obs("ajaxbaro",pressure.toFixed(dpBaro) + uomBaro);
...
var pressuretrend = convertBaro(realtime[18]);
pressuretrend = pressuretrend.toFixed(dpBaro+1);
if (pressuretrend > 0.0) {pressuretrend = '+' + pressuretrend; } // add '+' to rate
set_ajax_obs("ajaxbarotrend",pressuretrend + uomBaro);
...
var barotrendtext = ajax_get_barotrend(realtime[18]);
set_ajax_obs("ajaxbarotrendtext",barotrendtext);
...
var langBaroTrend = new Array (
"Steady", "Rising Slowly", "Rising Rapidly", "Falling Slowly", "Falling Rapidly");
function ajax_get_barotrend(inbtrnd) {
// routine from Anole's wxsticker PHP (adapted to JS by Ken True)
// input: trend in hPa or millibars
// Barometric Trend(3 hour)
// Change Rates
// Rapidly: =.06 inHg; 1.5 mm Hg; 2 hPa; 2 mb
// Slowly: =.02 inHg; 0.5 mm Hg; 0.7 hPa; 0.7 mb
// 5 conditions
// Rising Rapidly
// Rising Slowly
// Steady
// Falling Slowly
// Falling Rapidly
// Page 52 of the PDF Manual
// http://www.davisnet.com/product_documents/weather/manuals/07395.234-VP2_Manual.pdf
// figure out a text value for barometric pressure trend
var btrnd = cBaroToHPA(inbtrnd);
if ((btrnd >= -0.7) && (btrnd <= 0.7)) { return(langBaroTrend[0]); }
if ((btrnd > 0.7) && (btrnd < 2.0)) { return(langBaroTrend[1]); }
if (btrnd >= 2.0) { return(langBaroTrend[2]); }
if ((btrnd < -0.7) && (btrnd > -2.0)) { return(langBaroTrend[3]); }
if (btrnd <= -2.0) { return(langBaroTrend[4]); }
return(btrnd);
}
to update the page with values from realtime.txt and a computed phrase for the trend text based on realtime[18] (barometer change last hour). Your current display has 1017.9 and a rate of +0.2hPa/hr with text of (untranslated) "Rising slowly".
Based on the +0.2hPa/hr rate, the JavaScript function would have to see a rate of more than 0.7hPa/hr to have anything but "Steady".
This may be a bit more complicated to do correctly, but based on your snapshot, you want stuff before the header and after the footer, but still within the page. For the header stuff, change header.php in this area
Code: Select all
<div id="page"><!-- page wrapper -->
<!-- header -->
to
Code: Select all
<div id="page"><!-- page wrapper -->
<!-- insert stuff here -->
<!-- header -->
and for footer.php change
Code: Select all
</div><!-- end id="footer" -->
</div><!-- end id="page" wrapper -->
to
Code: Select all
</div><!-- end id="footer" -->
<!-- insert stuff here -->
</div><!-- end id="page" wrapper -->
Hope this helps...
Best regards,
Ken
