I am wanting to post a live time and temperature display on my forum. Has anyone ever done this? How would I go about it?

Basically, I just want a clock showing somthing like 7:38 AM 78°F that sits at the top of my forum and refreshes automatically.

well there is vb weather, but you wont find it on here, and a poll of the users on my weather forum found they didn't use it anyway.

Best to just use code from weather.com for the city of your choice and paste it into your header or navbar template.

Or, you could go here... http://www.wunderground.com/geo/Bann...aint_Paul.html and use one of their free weather stickers. I use one on my site.

I just checked out weather.com's and they're both about the same...very nice!

optrex, yeah, I will probably do that. I actually threw the time up just now and looked at it running and it just didn't look that great. I mean, they already have the time at the bottom of the forum. Also, like the other poster said, most people don't care to get the temperature. I guess I will scrap the idea for now. Sorry to trouble anyone.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
