The code to check the PHP version should be changed so that version 7.0 is accepted.

• Script weather28/jpgraph/src/jpgraph.php
• lines 230-242
• function CheckPHPVersion
• add the extra line

function CheckPHPVersion($aMinVersion) {
    list($majorC, $minorC, $editC) = preg_split('/[\/.-]/', PHP_VERSION);
    list($majorR, $minorR, $editR) = preg_split('/[\/.-]/', $aMinVersion);
    if ($majorC > $majorR) return true;                  // this line added for PHP7
    if ($majorC != $majorR) return false;
    if ($majorC < $majorR) return false;
    // same major - check minor
    if ($minorC > $minorR) return true;
    if ($minorC < $minorR) return false;
    // and same minor
    if ($editC  >= $editR)  return true;
    return true;
}

As debug options are set to high when testing the template, switch them off for the graphs at

• Script weather28/wxgraphs/graphsconf.php
• lines 29
• function fetch_root
• add the extra line after the include of uor template settings files

        include '../wsLoadSettings.php';   //  NEXT line added for PHP7
        ini_set('display_errors', NULL);  error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_STRICT & ~E_DEPRECATED); 

In one case the ereg_replace function is used. It should be replaced with a str_replace

• Script weather28/wu/WU-history.php
• lines 1406
• function getcsvWithoutHanging
• change that line from

$line = ereg_replace("<br>", "", fgets($socketConnection, 4096));  //One of these gets left in there somehow

to

$line = str_replace("<br>", "", fgets($socketConnection, 4096));  //One of these gets left in there somehow
