Converting Celcius to Fahrenheit

[dburnham]

I am receiving a variable that represents a celcius temperature. I need to display this variable as fahrenheit. Any thoughts?

This is a simple math conversion. The problem is how are you receiving your variable? Is it via some server side scripting (php, asp, perl, coldfusion)? Or is your only chance of converting javascript? In any way, pure HTML can't do much about it. It's just a presentation language and can't really convert values.

The plot thickens. The web pages are stored on an Echelon iLon web Server.(Used for Automated Facilities)I am receiving the variable from a temperature sensing unit. The "iLonWeb" code below is interpreted from the web server. The code below says to display (func=ShowValue) the information coming from this address "symbol=NVE_AS:SN.DM:0.SU:2.NO:1.ST:UA.PR:0.AU:0.SY:0.NI:0.NS:0.RY:3.TX:192.TY:105.SZ:2"

<iLonWeb func=ShowValue symbol=NVE_AS:SN.DM:0.SU:2.NO:1.ST:UA.PR:0.AU:0.SY:0.NI:0.NS:0.RY:3.TX:192.TY:105.SZ:2></iLonWeb>

Any help with the Java concept.

Hmmm, how good are you in Javascript? If you understand it, maybe you can use a nice function dwarfthrower wrote, which changes the certain words into links on page load. You can find it here:
