Yahoo changed their XML feed slightly. To parse it properly, the line of code needs to read: <pre> // Searching for weather condition String lookfor = "<yweather:condition text=\""; String end = "\""; weather = giveMeTextBetween(xml,lookfor,end); </pre> I uploaded a fixed version! Whoops, my mistake. Yahoo changed their XML feed slightly. To parse it properly, the line of code needs to read:

    // Searching for weather condition
    String lookfor = "

I uploaded a fixed version!

But one thing strange, on this page, I can see both temp and weather condition on your example, meanwhile on my macbook, with the same code, I just could see temp but weather condition...

If your internet connection is not active, the weather info won't display. That's all I can think of at the moment! Dan I double-checked the example and it works as far as I can tell.
