This happens if you have used extended character sets in your gauges-ssT.htm file and then saved it as UTF-8 (as you should). Unfortunately Cumulus does not understand UTF-8 and when it processes the page it will re-save it as ANSI encoded. In this case the only option is to manually edit the gauges-ssT.htm file yourself and replace the tags <#xxxx> with your station data, then save as gauges-ss.htm (in UTF-8 format) and FTP the file to your web site manually.

== I'd like to add gauge XXXX from the demo pages ==
The copy of the SteelSeries library supplied with the weather gauges only contains a subset of all the gauges available in SteelSeries Canvas library. The supplied gauges are Radail, RadialBargraph, DisplaySingle, WindDirection, and Odometer. If you want to display any other types of gauges, then you will have to download the full [https://github.com/HanSolo/SteelSeries-Canvas SteelSeries library from Github]. The SteelSeries demo pages have some very basic code to display each of the gauge types, all the configuration parameters for each gauge can be found by looking in the SteelSeries.js source file - there is no on-line documentation for the library.
