I was just reading the reply from Steve M when I stumbled across this
page in my 20-billionth google search:
http://woody.cowpi.com/phpscripts.html
the getwx script works really well, and gives a very simple output that
can also be easily modified. His code is pretty well commented as well.
Thanks Steve for that input, while I found a script I needed your
information will still be helpful to.
Thanks,
Bryan
