Try.... $output = `lynx --source http://weather.noaa.gov/weather/current/KTOL.html |grep -v '41-35-19N' |grep TOL | head -n 1` Those are backticks, not single quotes surrounding the command.
Backticks didn't work either. I got it to work by using a cron to > the info into a text file and then include()'d the text file in the website, but I'd rather not have to rely on the cron job if I don't have to. ----------------------------------------------------------------

What's the output you're looking for. When I run that line of code, and echo out $output, I get... <TD><FONT FACE="Arial,Helvetica"> KTOL 061552Z 22013KT 10SM CLR 11/M03 A3001 RMK AO2 SLP164 T01111033 -- *********************************************************************** * _ __ __ __ _ * John Nichel * * | |/ /___ __ \ \ / /__ _ _| |__ ___ __ ___ _ __ * 716.856.9675 * * | ' </ -_) _` \ \/\/ / _ \ '_| / /(_-<_/ _/ _ \ ' \ * 737 Main St. * * |_|\_\___\__, |\_/\_/\___/_| |_\_\/__(_)__\___/_|_|_|* Suite #150 * * |___/ * Buffalo, NY * * http://www.KegWorks.com john@KegWorks.com * 14203 - 1321 * ***********************************************************************
