Anyine fixing the original weather_report2.txt file?

It appears that the weather chanel has done it agin and changed the format of the page.

I lost my conditions report and fixed it by doing the following: (my apologies to Stein, Hunter, etal who have perfected this script, my method may be clunky)

Go to the sub Condition() section where you see the following lines:

position9 = Instr ( s, Webpage, ";F")

Playstring0= ""
Playstring0 = Mid ( Webpage, position9 -75,25 )
Playstring0 = Replace (Playstring0, ";", "",1,-1,1)
Playstring0 = Replace (Playstring0, chr(9), "",1,-1,1)
Playstring0 = Replace (Playstring0, chr(10), "",1,-1,1)
Playstring0 = Replace (Playstring0, chr(13), "",1,-1,1)
Playstring0 = trim(Playstring0)

I changed them to look like this:

position9 = Instr ( s, Webpage, ";F")
Playstring0= ""
condition0= Instr ( s, Webpage, "Feels Like")
Playstring0 = Mid ( Webpage, condition0 -60,25 )
Playstring0 = Replace (Playstring0, ";", "",1,-1,1)
Playstring0 = Replace (Playstring0, chr(9), "",1,-1,1)
Playstring0 = Replace (Playstring0, chr(10), "",1,-1,1)
Playstring0 = Replace (Playstring0, chr(13), "",1,-1,1)
Playstring0 = trim(Playstring0)

There is probably a better way, but now the script works for me.

Good luck.

Rupp,

Looks like there has been a major overhaul to the Weather.com page. I'm going to work on fixing it in the WeatherMan script. It is really just a more recent version of weather_report2 that uses HS .ini support and adds a bunch of features.

Looks like I might have some work ahead to get this working.

I rewrote the information parsing using a much better method than prior. Should be stable even with weather.com changes.

I have passed the code over to Mike so that he can update WeatherMan.

I probably will retire weather2.txt unless there is a big demand to keep it going. WeatherMan is an improved version of weather2.txt and should be very hard to switch over, especially with hs.ini support.
