Hi could somebody please help me with an example of an RSS FEED that works?
all I want to do for a project is just make a simple clock at home that I can see -
not only the time..but the weather forecast as well. I have to be honest here this
RSS / XML thing is driving me batty!...I see ( source ) and all I get is so much gibberish, -
I think it MIGHT make more sense after a of bottle of whiskey! - it all looks
like ants crawled across the page an someone closed the book!

I had a look at a VERY good example of a simple weather station but the codes have changed
and something about "W" now instead of ?....( sigh )...by the time I figure this out Ill be dead an gone lol.

I believe the last example of this was done back in 2008... ( I think ).

Anyway....thanks for your time guys..

Unfortunately, I don't think it's a coding issue - something is now blocking access. If you have a web host that can run PHP, I can show you a simple PHP proxy that will fetch the data and echo it back to the application on your computer.
