Re: Add weather forecast to front page/portal?

sure..... that easy get the code for displaying ur weather and put it in a file called weather.php
then put it in the include/user folder

excellent!  thanks for the quick reply smile

don't suppose anyone knows of a site that provides UK regional weather feeds, in the same way as weatherUSA does in quaker's code?
