Getting the tarball
-------------------
You can always get the latest version from www.gimpster.com.

Installation
------------
To try out PHP Weather to see that it works, just untar the tarball
into a directory on your webserver, and load the page demo.php in your
favorite browser.

The page should show the current weather-conditions in Aalborg,
Denmark (that's where I live) and in Honolulu, Hawaii (that's not
where I live, but the weather is better there than in Denmark :-)
There will also be a drop-down list where you can select a city and a
language, so have the weather for that city displayed in the chosen
language.

You'll get some complaints about a missing file (db_connect.inc), but
this simply means that you have to edit phpweather.inc for your
site. I use a file called db_connect.inc to connect to my database -
you do not need this file. Just read the comments in phpweather.inc.

For a quick introduction to PHP Weather, see demo.php. It contains a
lot of examples and instructions on the use of PHP Weather. But I
can't guarantee that the information is 100% up-to-date.

For detailed, and current, information about using PHP Weather please
see my webpages at this address:

  http://www.gimpster.com/php/phpweather/index.php

I've chosen to put the documentation there, because it's easier for me
to update. It also gives you a chance to see all the features of PHP
Weather in action.
