THX but the example was for downloading a map whereas I'm looking for the weather details such as temp, moon phase etc.

I'm looking to figure out how to parse the data from a web page such as www.weather.com or more specifically http://www.weather.com/outlook/homeandg ... r/USNY0996 where I can break out certain data for manipulation in my databse.

Jeff...

I've got quite a lot of stuff about getting the weather... I just haven't had time to put it into a stack to look reasonable... I you mail me off-list I will send you the things that I have worked out... I have looked at two sites, the BBC and the Weather Channel...
