Weather Display Live for the iPhone and Android

Tony,
You would need it on whatever pages that you want the iPhone users to be redirected to iwdl.

In my case I currently only have one weather page so that is where the code goes.

I wonder if we could possibly have some weather icons that show on the front page? At present though it is very functional it would nice to have some graphics.

I have a series of graphics for our iPhone ajax app at:

Some need to be changed but i can donate them if that helps to help the ‘look and feel’ of the app?

Andy

Yes, I would like that. How about using them as a background image of the overview page, the big yellow square?

Ok I’ve zipped up the icons, included the background and the photoshop files - some of the icons need to be redone and some like snow are not included yet (as London was snow free when i was running the tests)…

Let me know if they are of use and I can do the rest of the icons, change the background etc as required - could be quite good :slight_smile:

Ps. I have a suggestion for a new feature:

Addon for WD video - for example:

www.silkeborg-vejret.dk/vejrdata/videolastday.mp4
or
www.silkeborg-vejret.dk/vejrdata/videolastday.wmv

Swedish as well :smiley:

Hi !

Italian translation sent.

Thanks

I just received an old itouch and found this great app.

I have it running on the web no problems but i also run WDL on my home network. The clientraw.txt file is in this directory

C:\Documents and settings\All Users\Documents\WDL\

and the iwdl files are in the above directory but in its unzip folder called iwdl

What do i change the folder name to in the iwdl_settings.js file ? I thought it was “WDL/” but that didn’t work

I have all translations now, thanks.

Sietse

Are you sure you are running iwdl on a webserver, and not just on your pc without webserver?
And if you have a webserver, can you browse C:\Documents and settings\All Users\Documents\WDL\ ?
What is the url you are using?

Regards,
Sietse

I’m sure why, but the forecast day of the week is wrong http://www.gm4jjj.org.uk/weather/iwdl/#forecast
It says Sunday for Tuesday this week, and I think it also said Sunday for Monday earlier as well.

Is this a yr.no problem or a problem in iWDL?

Hi,

Version 1.0 is available. Changes:

  • Records for this month, this year, alltime
  • Bug fix for day selection in yr.no forecast
  • More days in yr.no forecast
  • Languages German, French and Hungarian added
  • Toggle for heat index / wind chill

Check out the demo at http://sietse.net/iwdl-demo
Download: http://sietse.net/iwdl-latest.tar.gz
More information: http://sietse.net/iwdl-info

Change to settings:


settings["all_langs"] = [ "cz", "de", "dk", "en", "fi", "fr", "hu", "it", "nl", "no", "se", "sp" ];

Added to settings:


// Which records to show; possible values are
// temp wind rain baro soil grass solar uv
settings["records"] = ["temp", "wind", "rain", "baro", "solar", "uv"];

// If you want to toggle heat index  (temp > 17C) and windchill (temp < 17C), then uncomment following option.
// In the live screen setting (see above), use either field 44 or 112, it will toggle
// settings["heatchill"] = "toggle";

Bugs? Let me know!
Enjoy!
Sietse

It was an iWDL problem; fixed in 1.0 :slight_smile:

Sietse

Excellent :lol:

Is 1.0 out now?

Yes, check my post right after your question…

Hi Sietse:

This is great, thank you very much! When I switch to Kn (knots) in settings and then switch to forecasts it gives a few extra decimal places (9.136077007409941). Am I doing something wrong?
thanks
