Thanks for that... I knew the use of template s would come in handy...  

-Jack

Sorry.  If you don't want to do the "popup and browse" method by clicking the little "!" icon next to the textbox, you would need to make it so that the textbox is not "read only" so you can type one in.  You will still need to aquire a valid city code which would be found in those city files in the weather-cities.zip.

-Jack

The popup method doesn't seem to work and I am not able to manually enter a code in the preferences settings.

[Jack.R.Abbit]

hmmm.   Do any of the other popups work on that page.  I used the same method of doing it.  Do you get a JavaScript error or just no popup or does the popup not load the city code into the text box?  If you need to do it manually, then the text box must me made to be not readonly.  I set the attributes of it to be read only because I wanted to make sure a valid city code was inserted.  I guess I'll remove that part for the next release, which I should have out later today.  Just working on getting the language files modded.

-Jack

[SNC]

it comes up with a page to choose the states...then when you choose one it just reloads the states page.

[Jack.R.Abbit]

OK.... I think I know what the problem is.  I will have it corrected in the next release.  Which should come very soon.  Just putting some finishing touches on the language parts.

In the mean time, try adding this

Code Select Expand

$types_to_register = array('GET','POST');
foreach ($types_to_register as $type) {
 $arr = @${'HTTP_' . $type . '_VARS'};
 if (@count($arr) > 0) {
   extract($arr, EXTR_OVERWRITE);
 }
}to the top of Yabb/weather/list.php.  LEt me know if that solves it.

Thanks,
-Jack

Where specifically do you want me to add this extra code?

I apologize for asking so many questions...I am new to php programming.

[Jack.R.Abbit]

not a problem... sorry for asking yoo to do it.  I try not to have so many bugs in my mods when I release them... but I kinda rushed this one out.

add it starting on line 2, right afterr the <?php

-Jack

[SNC]

That fixed it.....Thank you very much.

Now that I can get it to work....I am more then willing to recommend it to others.

[truecrimson]

I'm glad that got fixed.  I applied the mod to 5 forums, and had a similar problem on one of them(no problems on the other 4).  I was working on sorting it out when I inadvertently destroyed the board in question.  Luckily I had a backup.  
After restorng from backup, and instaling this again it worked fine, so I never figured it out.
In my opinion the yabbpak is totally superior.  I had nothing but trouble with boardmod, so I switched to doing everything by hand in dreamweaver.  The yabbpak is much faster, smoother, and demnstrates a degree of commitment on the part of the mod author.  And I still think this is the slickest mod I have yet seen, IMHO

Thanks for your support... I'm glad this mod is wokring out for you.  I try my best.

[truecrimson]

For several days now I have been getting the following on all 5 of my forums:

Code Select Expand

2: file() [function.file]: php_network_getaddresses: gethostbyname failed
(C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\corlissonline\yabbsecorliss\weather\loadWeather.php ln 48)

Of course the specific path for each forum is different, but otherwise the error is the same
It worked perfectly on all forums previously, and I have not changed anything or added anymore mods.  Any ideas?

[Jack.R.Abbit]

I will look into it.  It seems like the weather feed has either gone or changed.  I'll let you know.

[truecrimson]

Cool, thanks a bunch.  I really love this mod, and would hate to lose it.

[Skyview]

Hi, I just tried to install the mod through the YaBBpak which seemed to work fine.  I then d/l the cities file and ftp'd all of the xml files to the cities directory.  I am getting this error though, which seems fairly close to the one mentioned just above.  

An Error Has Occurred!

2: file() [function.file]: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: No address associated with hostname
(/www/s/skyviewtech/htdocs/forum/weather/loadWeather.php ln 48)

Is there anything I have done wrong or need to change?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks...
