Keith,

I just looked at your gauges page just now and all seems as it should; 
gauges, updating and mouseover plots all seem to be workings. There is one 
possibility as to why gauges.js seemingly changed itself. The SteelSeries 
Gauges skin is set to 'copy once' a number of files (including gauges.js) 
from the skins/ss/scripts directory to the public_html directory. 'copy 
once' means that when weeWX is started and the first report cycle is run 
all of the files that match the [CopyGenerator] copy_once setting (in 
skins/ss/skin.conf) are copied to the destination directory. There is also 
a copy_always setting that will copy the matching files every report cycle. 
This 'copy once' or 'copy always' behaviour woudl result in there being 2 
copies of gauges.js on your system; 1 in the skins/ss/scripts directory and 
one in public_html. If you want to change a setting in gauges.js and you 
make the change in public_html, the change will work but the next time 
weeWX is started that file will be overwritten by the 'copy once' behaviour 
and any changes lost. That is why I suggested you make the change to 
gauges.js in skins/ss/scripts rather than in public_html. So it could be 
that you may have previously changed the public_html gauges.js, things 
worked, but those changes were overwriiten sometime later when weeWX was 
restarted. It was just bad luck that the chnage was the setting for the 
location of gauge-data.txt and there happended to be an old copy of 
gauge-data.txt in the default location.

As for browser cache issues, I don't know. There seems to have been a lot 
of issues coming up of late that have been fixed with by forcing a refresh 
or clearing a browser cache. I can't rememebr the last time I cleared a 
browser cache, maybe I have been lucky. In any case it appears to be 
working now so I guess that is the main thing.
