It works perfectly. It is the observer's browser that rejects its
owner's request to see the site.

The problem is that browsers wet their pants over 'insecure' sites.
So you have to proivide encrypted gridwatch data. Wow! Is the NSA
listening? Does anyone want it?

No.

Just looked for the first time in a long while, and it's a nice clean
site: it works over plain HTTP if required, and also works well
without Javascript (I use noscript).

Only thing Javascript does is pop up the tooltips over the dials.

script type="text/javascript"
function hide(x)
{ document.getElementById(x).style.display='none'; }
function show(x)
{ document.getElementById(x).style.display='inline';
}
/script


I do that with CSS.

On hover etc?
