I'd like to contribute a tag lib for downloading and displaying current weather information gathered from public sources.
It can be obtained at: http://wso.williams.edu/~bburns/weather.tgz
Information:
1) Motivation
The tag is useful because it simplifies the task of obtaining and displaying current weather information for a region (currently the United States)
2) Overview
The tag(s) are currently simple to use.
There are three tags:
<weather:stations state=CDATA/> displays an HTML select list of weather stations for a particular state, for example: "<weather:stations state="WA"/>" displays stations for Washington state
<weather:load station=CDATA/> loads weather information for a particular station and stores a WeatherReport object in the pageContext
<weather:print value=CDATA/> is a convenience method for printing information in the WeatherReport object. A user may also choose to interact with the object directly.
3) Requirements None beyond apache taglibs, servlet 1.2 and a SAX compliant xml parser
4) Commitment I am willing to be the maintainer for this library.
Thanks for your time!
