      I would think it would be better to have the get_temp function return a value including the ° symbol.
      E.g. 45.2°
      That way only one file has to be altered.

      @jimp:

      You should really use °, don't hardcode such a symbol directly in html/js

      I agree. I was surprised it worked actually. It probably depends on what your viewing it on.

        Using something like:

        function get_temp() {
        	$temp_out = "";
        	exec("/usr/local/bin/mbmon -I -c1 -T3", $dfout);
        	$temp_out = (trim($dfout[0]).'°');
        
        	return $temp_out;
        }
        

        Would be better except that the above code only correctly returns ° when it it called from the system widget php code. When it's called from the javascript update function it just shows °.  :-\

          Needs a semicolon after that, it's "°"

            Steve and jimp,
            Sorry for been slow, but what you say is I should not really add the ° symbol to the ajax.js file? But could I add the ASCII code there or better not at all? As I mentioned I am not a good programmer :(

              Yeah, this still isn't working for me.  I'm just going to wait until a package is released.

                It's bad form (invalid html/js/etc) to put in a symbol instead of the html entity. It may work, but it's not guaranteed to do so.

                  Nope.   ???
                  Same as before, using:

                  
                  unction get_temp() {
                  	$temp_out = "";
                  	exec("/usr/local/bin/mbmon -I -c1 -T3", $dfout);
                  	$temp_out = (trim($dfout[0]).'°');
                  
                  	return $temp_out;
                  }
                  
                  

                  Results in initially correct ° then 46.5°C
                  Hmm.

                    It may be getting run through htmlentities somewhere in there then. Might be safe to leave the symbol in there if that is the case.

                      Unfortunately using:

                      
                      function get_temp() {
                      	$temp_out = "";
                      	exec("/usr/local/bin/mbmon -I -c1 -T3", $dfout);
                      	$temp_out = (trim($dfout[0]).'°');
                      
                      	return $temp_out;
                      }
                      
                      

                      Results in the attached image.

                      Perhaps the character set is being restricted somewhere?

                        That's a unicode degree symbol, try a standard ascii one, º

                            No different. I entered both º and ° and both result in ��.  :-\

                              I'd just leave it out.

                              (Or convert to Kelvin, no symbol there! ;-)

                                Kelvin nice!  :D

                                I'll stick with the nasty ° addition to ajax.js. I'm clueless about js, how would one enter that as an ascii code instead? Using ° is not working.

                                    This is awesome. My i3-540 reads 29C, 29C, 36C, 36C lol.

                                    Will this be included in future snapshots? Or should we go ahead and modify it ourselves?

                                      That is cool, which type of case/box you use? I get 54C with an Atom D510 that sits in a Jetway Motherboard that is in a passive cooled M-350 box.

                                        Though this is 2.0 RC feedback section, but since the topic is on coretemp, I wanted to see if there is a pfsense 1.2.3 compatible 32-bit coretemp file out there that I can use. Moved to 1.2.3 last night as 64-bit snapshot snort is broken since weeks and I don't have the patience to wait any longer.
