Sitewide configuration - website style and features
- $SITE['CSSscreen'] = 'weather-screen-blue-narrow.css';
$SITE['CSSprint'] = 'weather-print-php.css';
- These settings control which CSS files are to be used for both the screen and print formats.
You may use your own customized version of the Carterlake CSS if you include the unique
CSS settings for the ajax-dashboard/ajax-gizmo in your copy of the CSS.
Note: $SITE['CSSscreen'] will be overridden if the Theme Switch (below) is enabled.
To lock your site to use only one CSS as specified in $SITE['CSSscreen'], just turn off the Theme Switcher.
- $SITE['allowThemeSwitch'] = true;
- This setting controls the use of Mike Challis' Theme Changer. If set to true, then the Theme Changer is enabled and browsers can pick among the color schemes and wide/narrow format.
If set to false, then the Theme Changer is disabled, and the screen style chosen in
$SITE['CSSscreen'] is enforced throughout the website.
- $SITE['CSSscreenDefault'] = 'weather-screen-orange.css';
$SITE['CSSwideOrNarrowDefault'] = 'narrow';
- These settings control the default (first time browsed) look for your website when
$SITE['allowThemeSwitch'] = true; As distributed, the Orange, Narrow screen is the default.
$SITE['CSSscreenDefault'] should be set to 'weather-screen-[color].css' where [color] is
'blue','orange','green','red','teal','silver'
$SITE['CSSwideOrNarrowDefault'] should be set to either 'wide' or 'narrow'
- $SITE['flyoutmenu'] = true;
- This setting controls the function of the menu system (New with V1.14).
If $SITE['flyoutmenu'] = true; then the flyout-menu system will be used.
If $SITE['flyoutmenu'] = false; then the menubar.php menu system will be used.
- $SITE['charset'] = 'ISO-8859-1';
- This setting specifies the character set the webpage uses. The default is the Latin set.
- $SITE['lang']
- This setting controls the default language to be presented from among the choices in $SITE['langavail'].
The default is 'en' (English).
- $SITE['allowLanguageSelect']
- This setting controls the viewer's ability to change languages.
= true allows the changes,
= false denies the ability to change from the $SITE['lang'] setting below.
- $SITE['useLanguageFlags']
- This setting controls the display of country flags representing the languages available.
= true shows the flags,
= false will show the two-letter country/language designator instead.
- $SITE['languageSelectDropdown'] = true;
- This setting controls whether to show the dropdown list for language selection.
= true shows dropdown list for languages
= false shows linear flags list or language name abbreviations based on $SITE['useLanguageFlags'] above.
- $SITE['languageSelectButton'] = false;
- This setting determines whether to show a 'Set' button for the dropdown language select list.
= true show 'Set' button for language select dropdown list
= false allows the JavaScript 'onchange' event to do a submit when the selection changes in the language dropdown list.
- $SITE['langavail']
- This setting enables which language translations are to be offered. For each language offered, five files are needed in the website (LL is the language translation identifier):
language-LL.txt - primary translation file
language-LL.js - translation file for the AJAX JavaScript (ajax[WXsftw]wx.js)
ajax-images/flag-LL.gif - flag image for the language
wxabout-LL.html - About page in language LL
plaintext-parser-lang-LL.txt - translation file for the WXSIM forecast (needed if WXSIM is used)
To enable a language, just add the 2-character language code into the array. To remove languages, simply comment out the entry for that language with '//' in the first two columns.
- $SITE['monthNames'] = array(
'January','February','March','April','May','June',
'July','August','September','October','November','December'
);
- This setting is used by the wxastronomy.php page to parse the lunar/solar dates from Weather-Display.
If your dates on the wxastronomy.php appear correct, there is no need to use this setting.
If the dates are shown in a language other than English, then use this setting to specify the names of the months in your language.
For example, a French specification would appear as:
$SITE['monthNames'] = array(
"janvier","février","mars","avril","mai","juin",
"juillet","août","septembre","octobre","novembre","décembre"
);
Sitewide configuration - Station location, identity and date/time

- Set your city/town name here.
- $SITE['tz'] = 'America/Los_Angeles';

It's very important to get this correctly specified as many webservers don't run with the same local
time as your website.
Use http://us.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php for timezone names to use based on your locale.
Pick the one that is closest to your location and put in $SITE['tz'] like:
$SITE['tz'] = 'Pacific/Auckland'; or
$SITE['tz'] = 'Europe/Brussels';
- $SITE['timeFormat'] = 'D, d-M-Y g:ia T';
- This specifies how to display the long-format date/time on the PHP pages. It is used in a PHP date(); statement to format date/time for display. See the allowed format parameters here.
Use $SITE['timeFormat'] = 'm/d/Y g:ia'; for USA format 03/31/2006 2:03pm
Use $SITE['timeFormat'] = 'd/m/Y H:i'; for Euro format 31/03/2006 14:03
Use $SITE['timeFormat'] = 'Y-m-d H:i'; for ISO format 2006-03-31 14:03

- Configure these settings to display the correct text on the ajax-dashboard and ajax-gizmo for your particular units of measure for your website.
They should match units with what your weather software uploads in the [WXsftw]tags.php file.

with units determined by the ajax[WXsftw]wx.js script settings.
- $SITE['imagesDir'] = './ajax-images/';

- $SITE['cacheFileDir'] = './cache/';
- // directory to use for scripts cache files .. use './' for doc.root.dir
- $SITE['UVscript'] = 'get-UV-forecast-inc.php';
- This variable specifies the script to get the UV forecast for your area. The default setting shown uses your specified latitude and longitude to obtain the UV forecast from KNMI/EMA at www.temis.nl -- this value is used in the ajax-dashboard to display a UV forecast in lieu of a Solar and/or UV sensor on your station.
- $SITE['WXSIM'] = true;

The default will use Environment Canada as the forecast source.
Optionally, you can use WXSIM for the forecast source by setting
