What I posted -- IS THE FIX!

I didn't post my entire script, because I have many other custom modifications. Maybe Rick Fox will be folding in my changes though, if he's still using this script.

Apparently, InterceptVector made this change to "optimize his database", since the city and state had to be looked up each time to determine the ID #. Now his server will skip this step, since you provide the ID # directly.

Did Intercept Vector change their sight again?

I finally had a chance to sit down at the server and try and do the changes to get this script working again.
I have changed the script per Ameridan and entered the city code for Elbridge, NY as VVNOWTA0NDk%3D which no longer produces an error, but when I run the script no values are being written to the devices either. I even tried Syracuse which is a major city by me that even has an airport with no joy.
Anyone have any ideas for me?
Thanks in advance.

Think they are having some problems again. There doesn't appear to be any data returned for the last 2 days.

My fix did work, but right now there is no data to obtain.

OK, Thanks.
I wasn't sure if I switched over with your script repairs and 'broke' something by accident.

I just logged into their web site and it appears that they are up and running again.

I switched to XPPro from Win2000AS and weather "broke". Coincidentaly with the change to city ids. Working again now.
Thanx

I was just checking out weather scripts. This weatherXML sounds like fun! Does this work worldwide? (like in the Netherlands )

Also... I just went to check it out, but the weather.interceptvector.com site seems down. (404)

Grtz,

Dutch,

Weather.interceptvector.com has folded so this script is dead.

There are many weather scripts around. Jeff Farmer (CFGuy) has written another Weather XML (see http://ubb.homeseer.com/eve/ubb.x?a=...3&m=7516061705) or my BBC weather script http://ubb.homeseer.com/eve/ubb.x?a=...3&m=6296074693
should work in the Netherlands.
