What version of MS-Weather are you using? What fix are you talking about exactly? I also noticed you renamed the module to XP-Weather. If you did a hack of the module name and didn't change every file correctly that could be a cause of the problem.

I believe MS-Weather gets it's info from Yahoo. If Yahoo has changed their site then the module may need to be fixed (hacked) to reflect any changes Yahoo may have made in order to correctly collect the weather info.

(Edit)

Looks like you are talking about xp-weather and not ms-weather. I don't even know if either of these modules are still under developement but I will try to see what I can find out.

That was the other weather module I have active. Go to this link

http://www.hyprsearch.com/xoops/htdocs/modules/ms_weather/

and you will see that the forecast does not show. The module had comments that said yahoo made some changes and that the code needed to be fixed. I made the corrections that they wrote but it still will not give me the forecast information. If this module does not work anymore, do you know of any good XOOPS weather modules? I have xp-weather but I'm not thrilled with it. Thanks

Check to see if your php.ini is configured to allow fopen().
If it is like the weather module I have it won't work unless fopen() is enabled.

I am using Simple Weather Module posted by dpfresh. You can see it running on his site here. It still works as you can see. The problem is the dev.xoops site is down and thats where the download for it is.

I am running version 1.3 and it works fine. Send me a PM and I'll get it loaded up for you somewhere and you can grab it.

I checked my php config and fopen is on. I was trying to find the download for the simple weather module but like you said the site was down. If you are able to send a link for the download that would be great. Thanks
