I've thought about some of the same things, but I have yet to actually sit down and really do it (I actually started once, but never got around to really write any code). Just as a note, the Norwegian Metereological Institute and Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation is providing a free service for anyone, with easy to use interfaces in both xml, and other formats. Ofcourse the service is mostly for Norway, but it also contains XML for more than 2500 locations in the rest of the world as well. Here is a complete list of all the URLs to the international XML files http://fil.nrk.no/yr/viktigestader/verda.txt The names are in Norwegian, but it also contains a geonames-ID, so one can quite easily use http://www.geonames.org/export/ to translate them if needed. And an example XML-file: http://www.yr.no/place/Andorra/Andorra/Andorra_la_Vella/forecast.xml Rgds. /Ola (T) -- _,--', _._.--._____ .--.--';_'-.', ";_ _.,-' Ola Thoresen .'--'. _.' {`'-;_ .-.>.'
