Just to say thank you to all who suggested solutions my problem. =D>

I have now managed to do as asked. The new website style has all the weather data contained in it. :eek:

I managed to adapt...

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestions Egg Bramhill. Using an iFrame will work, but the data layout remains in the same style as Cumulus uploads it.

This is what I'm trying...

I downloaded Cumulus,...

Hi Trukkerz,

What happens is the Cumulus software accesses the weather stations data, and then it takes that data and generates html web pages from it. The temperature etc is hard coded in, the...

What I will try to do is combine the source code that Cumulus produces with the code from a WD layout. I can then transfer all of the combined code into Cumulus and then let Cumulus upload the HTML...

The weather station is down for the moment for minor repairs, so the laptop that runs the software was uploading the previous set of readings.

I was asked if I could do the new website, in time...

Thanks for that trukkerz. That wouldn't update though, or would it? As the new data was uploaded from the weather station, the HTML in the placeholder would need to change too.

Thinking about...

Hi Guys,

For my sins I have been administrator of our community website. It has been as it currently stands for over three years now, and I have been asked to give it a face lift. It has always...

Thanks for that neodist - so that is the term! I would never have guessed it in years.

Now I know what I'm looking for.... :o

Hi Guys,

I have searched the forum for some time, but cannot seem to locate what I am looking for. I suspect that I am not using the correct terminology.

I use Chrome for viewing web pages....

Thanks Gary - I have now found the relevant code for adding buttons and making variable donations through Paypal. Quite easy really when you look in the right place.

Hi Guys,

I have searched the forum for information relating to Paypal donations. There is some great advice on buying items with a set value, however, I would like to include a "Donate" button on...

Sorry Sledger, our posts must have crossed,...your attachment is brilliant !!

Absolutely spot on!! What I have been looking for... seems like another couple of pints I owe you! ;)

@Gary,

I...

Thanks Harry, that is a great effect! I have used it on the main photo on the Homepage.

The effect I was after is that of snowflakes tumbling down the whole screen. I have managed to cut and paste...

In response to my post above, I did find this....

BUT, Can I get it to work in a placeholder !!! :mad::mad::rolleyes:

Hi,

I know this will sound frivolous, and possibly bizarre, but I have been asked if I could add an animated 'falling snow' effect to the Village website that I administer. :eek: ...particularly...

Hi Sledger,

Thanks for the response. I put the second bit of refresh code in to see if it made any difference. Rather than keep coming back and asking I was trying to understand what was happening...

Just to report back that the example you posted is working a treat!! :D:D - Have noticed that the image is not auto-updating, maybe the javascript doesn't want to work with XWD - not a problem...

Sledger you are a star!! If you were over here I'd offer several rounds of cold beer!! (watching the Ashes would be optional ;) )

I see what you mean about not using the <iframe and just using a...

Here we are. There are two files attached.

testwebcam.zip - this requires the file extension changing back to .html as it wouldn't attach otherwise. This is the html that was automatically...

Cheers Sledger, will do. I just need to isolate it from the other 27 pages. Let me cut and paste it into a new page. :(

I now have it working in an iframe on my standard webpage. :D

Problem is that it is behind the rest of my page and at the top left corner, whereas the placeholder was in the middle of the page.
...

Thanks Egg, the url is http://www.affetside.org.uk/webcam/testwebcam.html

I have never come across and iFrame placeholder, so will have to look up in the help file. I just used a normal...

I uploaded my community site last week and it is now showing up in Google. I use the Google Analytics too to track what is happening. I'm now seeing more and more traffic from Google since I manually...

Hi Guys,

As you folks seem to know EVERYTHING about EVERYTHING :D

How would I place a webcam in XWD. Admittedly, webcams are new thing to me, and as well as getting XWD to show the stream, I...

Well, this is mine...

It is a community site for the Village and surrounding area. The primary concern was clean & uncluttered with easy navigation.
