Hi Anselmo
The main version of the calculator on the site looks very good,
particularly the three column layout. I also found the Excel
spreadsheet very useful for playing about with the algorithms.
A lot of thanks, John. It is a pity that the algorithms in Excel seem so
abstruse. I've tried to avoid this in the JavaScript, even if that means
loosing
precision or processing speed. I hope that now everything is much
clearer. By the way, did it work properly?
What about a Mk 2 version
Sorry, but what is that of Mk 2 ?
which is kinder to those of us creatures who live South of the Equator
and East of Greenwich ;-)) Possibly a set of North/South and East/West
buttons in the coordinate pop up window.
Yes. I thought about the N/S and E/W controls, but then I discarded them
because they could darken the main procedure. I think it is as much
difficult
for the user to press the 'minus' key than a scroll menu. However, I'll
take into account your suggestion, because most of our possible (Spanish
Speaking)
readers live in the Southern Hemisphere.
Just to let all of us dialist's know that we really are not going to
see anything further this day - Civil (-6deg.) Nautical (-12deg.) and
Astronomical (-18deg.) twilight ;-))
Well, I intend to give the lenght of the three twilights in future
versions, but right now I'd prefer to have everything working allright.
Best regards and thanks for your attention,
Anselmo
