Fizz, I saw your sunrise/sunset suggestion and have been looking for a suitable widget/gadget.

I have found a couple, but you do realise that the figures are different throughout the country? There is some 30 minutes difference between east and west and also between north and south.

To find something that will do the job will mean that each time you open the gadget, you'll have to input your location. Seems like a bit of a chore.

Good thinking though.

It does this ok on other forums I'm on but not on here... and sometimes I get lost!
I've looked for the same thing everywhere in the UCP and can't find it either, pain ain't it

a generic London based one would be better than nothing (and close enough for me not to have to worry about the difference :mrgreen: )
Land Rovers, who would be daft enough to own one?

On the one I have in mind, I thought that leaving the input at Nottingham would mean that it's no more than 15 minutes out, no matter where you're located.

There is only one time zone, and that's Yorkshire Time.
If the rest of the world chooses to ignore the obvious, that's up to them. :wtf:

Don't know about Yorkshire Time, Chas, but Yorkshire Tea is okay.

On my Ipad is fine but 2 things...

The first is that I cannot see the moon phases widget on the top left, but that may to do with incompatibility problem with apple devices.

The second is that if I enlarge/zoom in the text, it does not word wrap so I have to scroll left and right.
This maybe to to with the tables settings... Needing auto reflow rather than been fixed to a size?
