Perfect!! That solves the problem.

Thanks, Mark, you are the best!

What about my other question? In guages.js, what does the mobile scaling code do (approx line 39)? I have played with the setting but cannot see it makes any difference on my iPhone. See code below:

Code: [Select]
gaugeMobileScaling: 0.65,                   //scaling factor to apply when displaying the gauges mobile devices, set to 1 to disable (default 0.85)

It *should* make the gauges smaller (<1) or larger (>1) when they are shown on a small screen.

A "small screen" is defined as < 480 pixels wide at line 352. I suspect your iPhone has a better resolution than that? I actually make the gauges larger on a small screen on one of my pages, but it only fits two gauge at time on screen - one above the other.

Ok. Thank your for the explanation. And thanks for staying up late just to support those of us across the pond.

Thanks, mate.

Mark:

I recently had to rebuild my website due to a hack. In the rebuild, I updated the theme and the security. After the rebuild, SteelSeries Gauges do not display properly on my iPhone. It does not resize to display all of the gauges as it previously did, and the popup graphs on the left side are off again. I tried going to gauges.js 2.5.15 but this did not impact the iPhone display. Is there anything you can suggest I take a look at to get them properly sorted on the iPhone? They look fine on OS X and on my iPad.

Thanks.

Hi Blic, I've just taken a look at this and the gauge resizing works if you just load up the gauges page (http://timberlakesutah.com/wp-content/uploads/Weather/SteelSeries/gauges-ss-basic.htm). Resize your desktop browser down so the window is pretty small and load that page to try it.

The problem I think is when you include the gauges as an iframe, you are specifying a fixed size, so when your main page loads the gauges stay the same width. If you try setting the iframe width to 100%, see what happens.

Hi Cat Family and Mark
 Does any one have a copy of version 2.5.4 of the Steel Gauges zip file?
 I been running version 2.5.4 with no problems for me.
But I am getting ready to change web providers and need to be able to upload the files to the new server
I don't know what all will be involved to up grade to the latest version


cheers

Most of the versions are available on GitHub. Here is the link to version 2.5.4

To select the version you want, just click the 'NN commits' link on the GitHub page, then 'browse' the files, and select the download zip.

Mark, thanks for this suggestion. I know iframes are old school, and not really designed for loading stuff from one's own website, but since my weather site is in a WordPress installation, it seems to be the only way I can get some things to work.

I spent a couple of days trying to figure out how to load the page without using iframe. Didn't have any luck so I changed the iframe width to 100%, which indeed does scale properly on the iPhone. I made the same change to the embedded wind forecast section, which also fixed 98% of its iPhone scaling problems. It now scales fine horizontally, and almost fine vertically.

Once again, I really appreciate you taking a look and finding a solution to help me get properly sorted. That is incredible service from someone who is not using either OS X or WeatherCat. Thanks mate.

I just took another look at your site. Nice to see those gauges spinning around doing their thing.

Hello Mark,

if you do have some extra time:
What do I have to replace if I want to go from 2.5.11 to 2.5.15? Replacing only the gauges.js file (done all the same modifications I have done to this file in V2.5.11) does not work (no gauges are displayed then).

Thanks in advance,
Reinhard

Reinhard:

I went from 2.5.11 to 2.5.15 about 10 days ago and all I replaced was the js file. My first attempt also resulted in no gauges displayed. I just went back to my 2.5.11 gauges.js file and very carefully redid the edits. Second time worked fine. Something in one of your edited lines is incorrect.

Thank you very much, Blicj! Nice to hear that only the gauges.js file is to replace. I will double-check in time!
