Oh well, perhaps I won't bother then if I can't easily be seen on the map [:D]

Just above the map (on the left) you see a "Select Techgeek" dropdown box.
All "geeks" are also displayed in this.

An other option would be to start a "UK" division :-)

I was only joking. I have nothing at all against the Dutch. You were all very good to me when I visited last year :-)

I am preparing a script right now.

P.S. Did I meet you wifi at Eindhoven in November last year?

Paul.
I do not think that we met each other in Eindhover (I did see some other 'forum users')
I made a mistake and took a friend with me who was so flabbergasted about all the stuff that I had to go with him and see about every stand!

I need to make some changes because between 00:00 and 01:00 hour a lot of you guys fall of the map. I only select for the data for today and when there is no upload yet there is nothing to select. So you know why this is happening, Let me think on that how to solve this :-)

Also added the showing of the webcampicurl today, so if you filled this it will appear when clicking on the marker.

OK Pieter, thanks.

Will the time difference between UK & NL cause you a problem with the data?

Paul..

by **Bwired** » Tue Mar 17, 2009 1:30 am

good question!
you are on our time now I see :-)

When you upload the XML, I stamp the Dutch local time on it in my Database.
Also need to fing a way to get you directly in view.
Lots of things to think about.....

It looks like I found the answer, and yes it will.

I have used 19 kWh of power in less than 23 minutes [:(]

by **Bwired** » Tue Mar 17, 2009 1:36 am

I'm getting Grey hair :-)

It will correct you usage within the hour, bit still...
I think I will take the time stamp you all put in the XML...

And I welcome Arjo as well on the Service!

HELP PLEASE! Not good with scripts............ I'm uploading xml from my Homeseer, what is the code to upload the status of a lamp that has A2 address in homeseer?

by **Sooty** » Tue Mar 17, 2009 11:02 pm

If you look at the example given above by Rene, then you should just be able to add another entry.

You will probably have to use DeviceStatus from your A2 lamp and use a bit of code to convert this to string ON, OFF, DIM etc because of the image files in the DeviceString.

If you need some more help with this, then I would be happy to post a full vb script example.

Paul..

by **drmacchi** » Tue Mar 17, 2009 11:19 pm

@Paul, i did use the example of Rene, and tried to add a line pointing to my A2 lamp status, but i get an error "at line xx , invalid name etc. etc.". it's not so simple for me. please could you post a full vb script example?
Thans a lot.
