Bad link for Javascript in code. http://jqueryui.com/latest/ui/ui.slider.js and more doesn’t exist.

@Bruno

You’re absolutely right. It would appear that something has caused the demo to break in the past couple months. I’ll check the jQuery and post a solution shortly!

It’s not working for me… Tried under Chrome, Firefox and Opera… No slider or thermometer for me, under Ubuntu or Windows XP.

Anyone?

That’s pretty awesome. Unfortunately I would need a working version for IE too. Do you still have plans for revisiting it to fix bugs in IE? I get an error message when try to view the page in IE7 and although I’m a web designer I’m not good at coding in JQuery. I can’t figure it out myself.

I am trying to add some sub degrees inside that range of temperatures.
I added this one after the moderate:

}else if (current_temp > 50 && current_temp < 65){

//Dagbladet climate
climate = "Dag";

//Get current banner
climate_banner = $("#dag-image").attr("src");

$("#eco-dome").css({
'background' : '#000 url("' + climate_banner + '") no-repeat top left'
});

$("body").css({
'background' : '#000000 url("images/dag-bg.jpg") no-repeat top left'
});

//Update displayed fact
climate_fact = $("#dag-fact").html();
$(".fact").html(climate_fact);

So now I have 4 levels, 0-32 (arctic), 32-50 (moderate), 50-65 ("dag" level) and then "else" which shows the rainforest.
It works fine except when I put the handle on 50 and then shows the rainforest. On 51 it shows Dag until 65 degrees.
Why is that and how can the 50 degrees can be part of the Dag level?

Granted I’m bone-tired and someone or the article itself may have mentioned this; however–

A cool modification (not to the tutorial; the modification would ruin the intent of the tutorial!) would be to use one of the many available APIs out there to get the current temperature of your city, and modify elements based on that! Once winter hits here up in Ottawa, you’d have pretty much 5 months of the same background, but man… you could even make the various options rather granular if you had the ambition!
