Planetary Hours Calculator

Need to know the exact planetary spell for an important spell? You can look up sunrise and sunset for your location and do some math or you can tell the Shadowplay planetary hours calculator where you are and let it do the heavy lifting for you.

I am deeply indebted to Elf for the js code which makes this thing work. The only changes I've made is to where the results are output. Rhea's layout and artwork OTOH have been seriously compromised by my adaptations to Ubasty's site scheme. You can see her original Shadowplay Magickal Calculator design here.
