Weather code 1

[dmacster]

One more thing - I've used the code from accuweather.com to have a 120x60 pixel weather image, but the whole long thing shows up.

Can I modify somehow?

Thanks,
Donna

Perhaps you need to pass some params to their service to specify the width & height of the content they display?

Simply setting your own container to the desired dimensions by itself will not work in this case.

Hmm - where is says

<div style="width: 120px; height: 60px;

and so on is from their code.

In your code, did you have the "size=" parameter that tells the widget what size to display at? It's there when you use their wizard...

Thanks, Dan -

I ended up comparing what the site person at the cape had done with mine, and part of my code at the end of weather kept getting cut off

&size=7&theme=clouds&metric=0&target=_blank"></script>

right after where the language was declared to be english.

I guess a dreamweaver problem since I copied and pasted the whole code, but it wouldn't save. I ended up using bbedit lite and got the page to work locally. I'll put up the real stuff a bit late. Very confusing to see that DW wouldn't save that.

You might also find you need to escape the "&" as "&" to pass validation...
