[backstage] Location IDs for weather feed

2006-11-26 Thread Allan Jardine 

Hello all,

Does anyone know if there is a location to loction id conversation  
table available for the weather feed? For example, if I knew the  
location was Edinburgh, a look up would tell me that the location ID  
was 1808 - from which I could pull the weather feed. I suppose that  
since there are only 7379 feeds I could parse through them and try to  
pull the data out, but I'm guessing the bbc wouldn't be particularly  
thrilled with me doing this.


Many thanks,
Allan

The server will come and go, so if someone wants to provide a more

Absolutely perfect! Thank you very much indeed - that's going to make  
life much easier!  I'll see how this goes and drop an e-mail around  
if I manage to make it work :-)


Thanks again,
