I believe that PHPWeather was originally intended almost as a library,
rather than a fully-fledged application (Martin?), and so its focus was for
moderately experienced PHP programmers. It's not designed to be an
application really, just something that you could include within one.

You have to have a PHP page, rather than HTML.

Might I suggest http://www.php.net/manual/en/tutorial.php as a decent
introduction. (Navigation's a bit funny now, but you can turn the page with
the links at the top, in the grey bar).

If you need help with PHP, please mail me directly, rather off-topic for
this list.

Cheers,

Max
