Hi Murray

Ive managed to get the local weather in cape town or for any airport 
that has a ITIA code.


the webservice is provide by:
http://www.capescience.com/webservices/globalweather/index.shtml

you will need to get nusoap from sourceforge to make use of the webservice.

regards

Hi Philip,

This would probably have been ideal for what I have in mind (don't mind
going to a little effort to parse the text files) but appears to be limited
to US information only, whereas I'm hoping to be able to randomly select a
city from around the world and present it's current time and weather
information.

Thanks for the suggestion, though.

Regards,

Murray

Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone knows of a free weather service that can be
interrogated by PHP for information such as current temperature for a range
of cities around the world?



You might want to have a look at 
http://www.accuweather.com/wx/accunet/index.htm


Not checked it out properly, but give it a go. Don't think it's free though. 
Anyone got any other ideas?


http://weather.noaa.gov/pub/data/forecasts/zone/

It's all there, but it's a PITA to parse through...

http://intellicast.com/

Not free, but was a *lot* easier to work with and a lot of features (maps, 
radar, etc.)


You might also see how the firefox extension Forecastfox does it...

Hi Zac,

Thanks for the suggestion! Having downloaded weather.com's xml sdk I'm a
little bemused to see that you are required to display referral links
provided by weather.com to make use of the service.

I'd be very happy to include a "weather details provided by..." link on the
page in question, but carrying unspecified referral links, particularly when
the application is simply my personal blog, is a little more of a constraint
that I'm comfortable with.

However and again, thank you for the suggestion!

Regards,

Murray

Weather XML Data Feed
Now you can include weather from The Weather Channel in your own application by 
signing up for access to our XML data feed. We'll enable you to search for a 
location and to integrate current conditions and the forecast for today and 
tomorrow in your application - for FREE!


Hope that helps
