Synoptic Charts Foldlet
This is an old article and the information contained within it may be out of date, not reflect my current views and/or contain broken links. If you feel this article is still valid and requires updating, you can use the contact form to let me know. However, I make no guarantee that it will get updated.
I’ve created another Foldlet. This one animates the synotic charts which are provided on the Metcheck.com website. Currently the images are reduced down to 300×200 as I didn’t want them taking up the whole of the Fold page but at some time I may make it configurable.
To add this Foldlet to your Fold page simply add a new HTML Container and set its source code to be the following:
<iframe src="http://www.gringod.com/fold/metcheck.html" width="300" height="200" frameborder="0"></iframe>
I’ve made a change to this Foldlet. It is no longer available at the above address (you will get an informaional message). Instead it is available at http://www.gringod.com/fold/metcheck.php
I have also added several properies:
timer – set the delay between images in milliseconds (defaults to 1000).
width – the width of the images in pixels (defaults to 300).
height – the height of the images in pixels (defaults to 200).
For example:
http://www.gringod.com/fold/metcheck.php?timer=5000&height=600&width=800will display 800×600 images that refresh every 5 seconds.
