I am looking for an XML weather feed so I can bring it into flash.
I have seen http://www.perceive.net/xml/weat…
and have been using
http://weather.interceptvector.c…The intercept vector server has been awesome, except recently it went down and shows no signs of coming back. I dont care if I have to pay, its a client site.
thanks

the only pay services i have found are javascript.
i guess i could parse the javascript somehow. but then they use gifs as their icons, so i couldnt import them into flash.

Besides the fact that you can only load dinamically JPEG's into Flash, from where do you get the weather feed?

weather.com has one of those javascript feeds.

I haven't finished developing web services implementation inside flash so here is a raw example of weather in Flash

1.select a State on the map (NY)
2. Type in the city in the State ( New York)I would suggest you to wait untill Flash 7 come out, before getting into web services in Flash

I was also using weather.interceptvector and just finished an entire app that used the service. Now they are down and thats a bummer. The only decent service that I have been able to find is http://www.customweather.com but they are around $250 a year for one city. Let me know if you find anything else and I will keep an eye out as well. Thanx. ash
