Hi dbbrown (Davis..??)

Welcome to the world of 'Weather Blues'... :D

Looks good with a few 'tweaks' needed here and there (I can't look at the images and about pages... "Link broken" it says...???
Looking forward to see some nice images of Michigan....

Please let me know when you're having the first blizzard this year (probably today/tomorrow), so I can prepare in Toronto for it  ;)

Cheers,

Arthur

Arthur,
Davis is my nickname!
Image and About pages are not up and running yet. No Blizzard forcast here it is forcast nortwest of me. Just wind and a little snow here.

Not sure you can help but for some reason my Cumulus software will not auto update my site. I have auto update checked and active FTP. My firewall is not blocking Cumulus so not sure what is going on. I can do web page updates manually through the browser.

Hi,

Don't knwo which part of MI you're living, but it's a nsat storm coming this way.
Fortunately, the forecast shows most of the snow (up to 40cm - 18 in) will be dumped where it belongs:
On the ski-resorts, North of Toronto  :)

I've never used the 'active FTP' in Cumulus set-up.
Should only be used when you have problems with upload, obviously you don't have this when you do this manually.
Check all settings on your server (ftp address, directory etc) and only check off the 'auto upload'.
In case you upload to the root of your sserver, you can leave the 'directory' in Cumulus/configuration/internet  for ftp settings empty.
Which server provider do you use??

Cheers,

Arthur

Hi,

Whay do you mean by "autoupdate". I have added a little code on the index.php page to refresh the page every 3 minutes.

Code: [Select]

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="180" />Don't know if it works for html
Your Cumulus setting is working when you refresh your page manually and the data is updated.

Further more the site looks nice, except for the pages mentioned by Arthur already  ;).

Regards Jan
