What I want to do is to get two birds with one stone. Not only give a web page that will do the conversion, but expose you to some Javascript. Once you have saved the file, you can easily load it into your web browser without having to use a web server.
Now here is the code: ([code] and [/code] should not be copied or typed in.)
[code]
<html>
<head>
</head>
<br>
<h2>Temperature conversion</h2>
(Enter a value and then press the = for the temperature you want to convert)
<hr>
<br>
<script type="text/javascript">
function temp (form) {
form.fahrenheit.value = form.celsius.value*1.8+32;
}
function temp1 (form) {
form.celsius1.value = (form.fahrenheit1.value-32)/1.8;
}
</script>
<form>
<div align="center"><center><p><input type="text" size="15" name="celsius"> <strong>Degrees Celsius</strong> <input type="button" value=" = " onclick="temp(this.form)"> <input type="text" size="15" name="fahrenheit"> <strong>Degrees Fahrenheit</strong> </p>
</center></div>
</form>
<br>
<center> --------------- or ------------------</center>
<br>
<form>
<div align="center"><center><p><input type="text" size="15" name="fahrenheit1"> <strong>Degrees Fahrenheit</strong> <input type="button" value=" = " onclick="temp1(this.form)"> <input
type="text" size="15" name="celsius1"> <strong>Degrees Celsius</strong> </p> </center></div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
[/code]
Have fun!
Note: advanced users will do a page scrape of the temperature and convert it so nothing has to be typed in. http://www.instructables.com/id/Web-page-scraping-fromto-a-web-page/
