Explanations:
#.gif - All the different weather image files.
index.php - A redirecting index page to prevent directory viewing.

gpl.txt - A copy of the General Public License.

If your web host has URL functions disabled, there isn't anything I can tell you. The script will not run without it. A possible workaround might be if they have cURL enabled, you can patch the script using cURL functions.
Email your administrator / customer support, and ask them what you can do. |

I love this script! I'm going to try and make it display more then one city...wish me luck.
When are you going to put your "Add a Comment" script (complete with verification) online for us to download? (please!!!!) |
I actually have a new version of the weather script nearly ready for release. It would allow easily showing multiple cities, amoung several other features, some of which being multiple display formats, showing current information, better reliability, many more customizations, to name a few. Check back often.
And I haven't even considered releasing my comment script. I'll have to think about it. |

| Is there a way to limit to 1 day of weather ? |
If I understand what you're trying to do properly, and you want the script to cache the weather information only once per day, instead of once every hour, all you have to do is change line 46 in weather.php from:
cache("weather", 3600, $matches);
to:
cache("weather", 86400, $matches);
The number in that line reprents the minimum amount of seconds to cache the data for.
60 Seconds x 60 Minutes x 24 Hours = 86400 Seconds in a Day.
Hope that helps. |

#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'id' ('id')
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1' at line 5
I have tried modifications your suggested for somebody else who has had the same problem but it does not work, I have MySQL 5.0
any new advise?
Regards

Try this:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS 'cache' (
'id' varchar(25) NOT NULL,
'stored' text NOT NULL,
'timestamp' int(11) NOT NULL,
UNIQUE KEY 'id' ('id')
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;
Note the added comma ',' after the timestamp line. |

| thanks for the effort. maybe something is wrong with your server or folder permissions. the zip file was corrupted. i checked it on 3 different pcs on 3 different networks on 2 different OS's. even this new zip is corrupt and fails CRC checks while unzipping. Maybe your compression software is having some problem somewhere. Maybe these tips would do: Try winzip (free for evaluation) or even better WinRAR. Try to rename the folder all in small. Test the zip yourself by a download to see if it opens fine. anyways all it was missing were some graphics that can easily be downloaded from other site. Very nice script thanks. |
| Problem has been resolved. I still don't know what the cause was, but some part of my server wasn't letting me send ZIP files properly. The files are fine server-side, but once they were downloaded, they got messed up somewhere in the process. I reinstalled each part of my webserver, and after that did nothing, I wrote a script to fix the problem. |
