NWS XML Feeds Libraries / News: Recent posts

Version 0.2b of the National Weather Service XML feed parsing class has been released.

It corrects an issue in which the class would not consider any feed valid. It also corrects a documentation error that would lead to problems if sample use code was copied and pasted into a PHP page.

Finally, it includes the first copy of release notes in the documentation, and the css for the documentation HTML pages has been moved to its own file.

Version 0.1 of the NWS XML Feeds Parsing Script has been released.

This PHP 5 class features the following:

* Automatic parsing of the feed to an associative array -- use the feeds similar to the way you'd use database information!

* Automatic HTML table output based on certain parameters -- or, simply output a basic HTML table pre-formatted with your weather station's information!

Downloads and documentation are available in the sourceforge.net site for this project: http://nws-feeds-php.sourceforge.net/

If you've ever wished you could get free weather on your Web site, without having to splash someone else's logo all over or, worse, link to the provider's site, your wishes have been answered!
