Hy There

If ya are using DesktopX 1.98e you might have noticed the script things.
Like the weather thing from Frogboy, It only works in the USA.
Is there somebody wo can make one like his for europe, Netherlands, United Kingdom, Germany

Thanks,

No, but they have weather stations. I've been searchig for an international XML feed, but I haven't found one yet. If somebody knows of one, let me know, I might try my hand at it.

another thing someone can do if they're bored is write a quick javascript parser that just grabs data straight out of pages from weather.com or wunderground.org

i've been using this technique for ski report pages/applications on the desktop for years now.

Yes The Netherlands / Germany uses zipcodes.
exampels Net. 5866BD / Germany 45324.

But I had the same thought as Jafo wenn it get the info from the same site as Systemtirx you got worldwide support. Maby there is wa way to copy / change the original script.

Thanks
