I think you're the first who has seen this error --- it's supposed to
be something that cannot happen... The error says that the 'new' call
in line 52 has failed because there's no class definition of
pw_db_null. The definition is stored in the file included in line 51,
so it really should work:

      include_once(PHPWEATHER_BASE_DIR . '/db/pw_db_null.php');
      $this->db = new pw_db_null($this->properties);

I don't have any good suggestions for you :-(

The first thing you'll want to do, is to get the index.php page from
PhpWeather working. Then you can start integrating PhpWeather into the
design on your homepage.

We'll do our best, but ask again if you need to.
