Islamic Prayer Times 2.1.0.0

Islamic Prayer Times 2.1.0.0 is created to be a simple and effective highly configurable gadget which calculates and displays the five daily prayer times on a daily basis. A working browser version of the gadget is provided to the right for a user to view to ascertain its capabilities if javascript is enabled. 

1. Main Display
   • In docked mode, the gadget displays the five daily prayer times (Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha) and sunrise (Shurooq) time for a specified location, and either a countdown timer to the highlighted next prayer time, or a digital clock. When clicked on with the mouse, the gadget "flips" to display information about the current date in the Gregorian and Hijri calenders, and the qibla angle in a clockwise or counter-clockwise direction from degrees North.
   • In undocked mode, the gadget concurrently displays all of the above related information in a single view.
2. Settings Dialog
   • The configuration of the gadget is done via the settings dialog which provides a multitude of options that span four tab areas: Location, Method, Parms, and Adhan/Misc. For more information concerning an option, mouse over it or its label to display a tooltip.
3. Location
   • The user can search for a location by typing the city, country, and/or region/state in the search text box and then select one from the list of results in the drop down when a search completes, or can select Custom Location to enter a specific latitude and longitude.
   • If necessary, the user can specify the start and end dates of daylight savings time. For the US and Canada, this capability should be ignored because it is already taken into account in the calculations.
4. Method
   • The option to specify one of seven different types of prayer time calculation methods: Egyptian, Shafi, Hanafi, ISNA, Muslim World League, Umm al-Qurra, and Fixed Isha.
   • For extreme latitude (high North or South locations) calculations, one of fourteen different options can be selected, as well as a Nearest Latitude value for those options that require it, e.g. Nearest Latitude All Prayers Always
   • One of four different options for rounding seconds can be selected: None, Normal, Special, and Aggressive.
   • The option to select either the Shafi or Hanafi school of thought shadow ratio for Asr prayer time calculation.
5. Parms
   • Calculation angles and intervals in degrees can be entered for Fajr, Imsaak, and Isha times. These values are set to the defaults of the currently selected prayer times calculation method.
   • Prayer time adjustments in minute offsets can be entered.
6. Adhan/Misc
   • An adhan file on disk can be browsed to, or one of four adhan sounds can be selected: Makka, Al-Aqsa, Bosnia, or Turkey. The user can listen to the audio by pressing the play button next to Adhan Sound drop down.
   • The Blink Prayer Message option can be selected to display a blinking adhan message when the time for prayer comes and the option to play the adhan for that prayer is not selected, e.g. "Fajr Time!"
   • The ability to turn on/off the adhan sound for each of the prayer times.
   • One of thirteen different themes for gadget display can be selected.
   • The option to display a timer to the next prayer time or a digital clock.
