Hi Martin (and others),

The script you sent me worked fine! It prints the pretty string as it is 
intended to.

I had to modify one line though: the script produces a warning:
Warning: Variable used in global statement already exists in the function in 
phpweather.inc on line 486

I found that by uncommenting the $useXML; variable in line 486, the
warning disappears.

I have two other questions, but i will ask them in another thread.

Thanks again!

Ray
