Actually, I'm thinking about using the free Weather Channel API. It'll be easier to jam unto the existing infrastructure and the forecast data is more accurate. There's a class on CPAN for this as well. The API is only free for 500 requests per day (it's really developer access)... So if I go this way others would have to get heir own API key. This would be a significant undertaking. As I said, I don't really program in perl. I guess I could start... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PeterGV's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31531 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=14327 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
