February 25, 201412 yr Hi all,I have a website and I publish the readings from my weather staion on it in .gif form. The Weather Station uploads the images to the website's ftp and I have set the site to auto refresh to ge the latest image.The next step I need help on, at the end of each day the weather staion saves that day's readings for later reference, I would like to make these available to people viewing the site but I don't want image after image loading on the page. Is it possible to create a dropdown box that will either open the selected date file in a new window or even better in the same window. Obviously the dropdown would need to be 'intelligent' to keep up to date with the latest images.I hope I make sense, if you need any clarification or more info, please ask.Thanks in advanceGeorge
February 25, 201412 yr Best suggestion is to prehaps have it link to an open ftp account so that people can view the site in their browsers. If I'm right in thinking that your images will be saved in a date format (eg. 25-02-14.gif and so on, then it would be self-explanatory to navigate. Browsers would provide the layout. It wouldn't look amazing but the reference would be there.

I'll try and set it up like you suggest in the mean time.
