finding the current temperature
Does anybody know of a web server or something that can be called with a ZIP code parameter which will return the current temperature? Maybe a telnet site? Anything?

Get these:
Mozilla Opera OpenBSD
I have books for sale: "MCSD in a Nutshell" and "VB Distributed Exam Cram" - PM me for details. Will also trade for a decent ATX Pentium 2 MB/CPU/RAM combo.

I've been working with that web site all morning to figure out how to use it to my advantage. I came up with the simple project attached.
It grabs the current date/time using Telnet and the current temperature using www.weather.com.
The embedded web browser interface is touchy at times and I can't figure out how to stop those annoying pop-up ads.
To compile the project you will need to include the Microsoft Internet Controls and Winsock Control 6.0 components.
I welcome any ideas/suggestions/solutions/extra cash.

Thanks everyone!
