And just where is this?
What version are you using?

If you want to see this fixed, or at least looked into, you need to give relevant information.

using the latest version from the tcl archive (i think) 3.5.7
eddrop 1.6.17
and the request was .wz edinburgh uk

If you want to see this fixed, or at least looked into, you need to give relevant information.

the script works fine for me, tnx for continuing it

just thought i'd try be helpful and post u the error i got, i'll pass next time though :p

I am curious where the acronym wz comes from. The acronym widely used in the weather field for weather is wx.

Just curious. Thank you for the script. rodjavascript:emoticon(':?')

'wz' is not an acronym, it was most likely chosen so the trigger did not conflict with any other script

the script allows you to change it to anything you want

Maybe a contraction. Meteo also uses wz. I could just never figure out why.

I like and use your script. Thanks for the effort you put into it. rodb

If I'm not mistaken is used to stand for "weather zone" and was coined by a popular weather script.
But I could be wrong!

How do I set the language of query results? There is estonian at the webpage: http://www.wunderground.com/global/EE.html

Currently, the only way is to edit the script.

The next release may include a way to change the language (if I remember).
