All updates are now kept at: https://sourceforge.net/projects/weatherwidget/

This is still being created (The GUI) so some of the labels will be out of alignment ($OverViewTime & $OverViewStatus) if you get an out-of-aligned label (IE, not centered) then please let me know what the exact text is by going to Weather.com and putting in the zip code you used and got the error.

If you get a MsgBox that states "Error" then please do the same as above, but this time tell me what the labels are for "Right Now", "Tomorrow", "Tonight" etc. etc.

The UDF will get all the information needed from Weather.com and the script will create a GUI to display all the information.

Nice, a lot different from my :unsure:

Tested: And I'm getting $Temp1 in _GetOverViewTemperature() not being declared, plus is this only for the USA?

After my initial post of seeing the images I decided to have a play and unlike my UDF it appears there are errors with the SRE's.

And to answer your question MrCreatoR, it appears the URL is to blame e.g. http://www.weather.com/weather/today/washingtondc doesn't work, but a ZIP code will. At least Google is a little forgiving.

Hmph, for some reason Weather.com decided to use "CHance of Rain" instead of "Chance of Precip:" which is what I use to have. I'll do a little tweaking and post the results.

*** EDIT ***

Alright, I fixed the problem with precipitation. FOr now everything should work, and yes, its zip code only and USA (Unless Weather.com can locate you)

I will be releasing another version in a few days, but I will go ahead and release the fixed bug one.

First post is updated.

I'm not getting the weather pic and had to move the $OverViewStatus to the left a little but other than that I can't wait to see what you add to it :unsure:

I concur, status of "Sunny / Windy" hangs off the edge.

see todays weather for (http://www.weather.com/weather/today/76504)

However I am getting the pic, nicely done.

Alright, thanks. And yeah, a StringLen might do nicely, I know of a few things I need to adjust (Including after like, 9PM the Overview changes from Right Now, Today, Tonght, Tomorrow > Right Now, Tonight, Tomorrow, Tomorrow Night) so I need to do a little adjusting to allow that instead of the other menu. But thanks so far :unsure:

or if there are multiple status just return the first, Im sure my regexp is horrible but it seems to make due.

If $i = 1 Then
        If stringregexp ($status1[0] , "(.*?)/(.*?)") Then
        $SplitStatus = stringsplit ($Status1[0] , "/" , 3)
    $OverViewStatus[1] = $SplitStatus[0]
Else
    $OverViewStatus[1] = $Status1[0]
    Endif

Hello Damein! Thank you for posting your UDF and sample code.

When running your example code with the weather.udf, I get this error:

C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\Include\WeatherUDF.au3 (83) : ==> Subscript used with non-Array variable.:

$OverViewStatus[2] = $Status2[0]

$OverViewStatus[2] = $Status2^ ERROR

This also happens with previous lines that reference $image1[0], etc.

Thanks for looking into it, if you have a spare moment.

:D

Ah, they changed the way they pass the URL for the website.

I figured out how to do it, but I'm going to have to play with it to get everything right.

For starters I had to add this to the Example Script:

$ZipCode = InputBox("Zip code", "Please input your zip code")
$ZipCode2 = "http://www.zip-codes.com/zip-code/" & $ZipCode
Global $sSource = BinaryToString(InetRead($ZipCode2))
$City = StringRegExp($sSource,'(?i)(?s)<tr valign="top"><td id="rowB"><a href="/zip_database_fields.asp#city" class="rowL" target="_blank">City:</a></td><td id="rowB"><a href="(.*?)">(.*?)</a>',1)
$State = StringRegExp($sSource,'(?i)(?s)<tr valign="top"><td id="rowA"><a href="/zip_database_fields.asp#statecode" class="rowL" target="_blank">State:</a></td><td id="rowA"><a href="(.*?)">(.*?)</a>',1)
$Url = 'http://www.weather.com/weather/today/' & $City[1] & '+' & $State[1] & '+' & $Zipcode

So I have the right URL now, and I can pull data, but it might take me a few days until I can sit down and setup all the StringRegExp.

If you want, you can always do it, it shouldn't be hard after that. All you have to do in the UDF for now is replace all the:

Global $sSource = BinaryToString(InetRead("http://www.weather.com/weather/today/" & $ZipCode))

To be:

Global $sSource = BinaryToString(InetRead($Url))

Thanks for bringing this up, I will look into it.
