[bounce] That is looking great - I used to have a very similar background myself on my gauges page some time ago, it disappeared for some reason!

I am very impressed of the abilities of your script! Well done! I love the gauges and will give some bucks on your donation account. Thanks a lot!

I have attached a test version of v2.2.2 with just those two changes in if people would give it a whirl - including someone who uses Knots as their native wind speed unit would be good  :)

Not using knots, but this version works fine. Note that you left WeatherCat as the default application in the new file, which I assume you'd want as Cumulus in the final release.

Thanks for your help!

It was deliberate, just for WC users  ;), but thanks for pointing it out.

Version 2.2.2 is available. The main fix is for WeatherCat users using MPH or knots for their wind units. There is a slight tweak to the gauges-ss.css to pretty the units table slightly, and the Nederlands translation has been updated that's it.

I have also updated the FAQ with information on tweaking the wind rose appearance.

We are having problems with the Cumulus hosting server being on a go-slow at the moment, they are going to move the site to a new server, so please try again a bit later.

Hi Mark.

New version downloaded (eventually), and once I'd got my head around how to reconfigure the files again, all works great.

Steve:  a quick note, to thank you for helping usher Steel Gauges into WeatherCat's bag of tricks.  Installation and live implementation was quick and easy, thanks to very clean instructions on the wiki page, and especially clear code.
   Following configuration directions on the wiki, I placed all the files at top level of my website. Next, edited gauges.js in the scripts sub-folder, including line 19, replacing imgPathURL with imgPathURL        : '/',
.
  However, the website gauges did not respond as expected - e.g., when I would "mouse-over" any of the gauges,
the resulting popup graph was blank - showing a small "?" to indicate a missing image.  The imgPathURL value seemed incorrect.
.
   So I ftp'd the locally-generated graphics to the web site into the images sub-directory, and changed gauges.js back to original value of imgPathURL        : './images/',
   Now the web site worked as expected, with popup strip chart graphics.
.
   Satisfied with the above results, I tried the following edit to line 19 in gauges.js:

imgPathURL        : './/',             //*** Change this to the relative path for your 'Trend' graph images

  and, now things are working to my satisfaction - the images are being updated routinely by FTP to the top level of the web server.

  for whatever it's worth, my current WeatherCat / steel series gauges server is hosted by Charter's user web pages sites - webpages.charter.net
  just prior to the release of Steel Series Gauges, I was using Dropbox to host the site, in my /Public sub-directory.
  I don't have any experience with webpages.charter.net - and can't explain the discrepancy in the '/' and './/', but thought it might shed some light for other users trying to get their mouse-over strip chart graphics to work as expected.

  again, the information above reflects only my recent experience with the gauges.  I am very pleased with the results, and especially impressed with this forum, its moderation, and the user input.  It's quite obvious that the members are very community-minded.  What a great service to those just getting started.

Very odd, access to the Wiki isn't restricted as far as I know. Is anyone else having problems?

Tried it with different machines: iMac, MacMini, MacBook Air, on different Browsers (Safari, Firefox). Even a Windows Machine - no chance. But I can access your Wiki with my iPhone when WLAN is turned off in its preferences. So maybe a problem with my Modem/Router.

Maybe your Wiki disallows some IP-Adresses to have access? All of your other Website (except Wiki) is no problem. On the other side, a few time ago I did have access to all of your pages.

Strange.

Cheers,
Reinhard
