*Now, each time Cumulus updates your website files it will also process the index.html for iCumulus and upload this too, with the correct values.
=Testing=
=Homescreen Icon=
In version 1.2 a homescreen icon was added (see example below); if a user bookmarks your iCumulus page onto their Homepage of the iPhone/iPod Touch it will display a simple icon rather than a default blank one.
To achieve this, create an icon that is 57x57 pixels and save it as a PNG file format in the same folder as your iCumulus files on the web server.
In the <head> section of the iCumulus page add the following line:
<pre><link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="icumulus-icon.png"/></pre>
changing the href to the name of your icon file.
Save your HTML page and remember to also update the one in the local PC folder which will be updated by Cumulus.
