Anyway, this is easy to get around. Given that you aren't interested in the minimums, you can simply alter the pattern match on line 40 to read as follows:

if ($line =~ /^([\w\s]+):.*?Max\s+(\d+)/) {

The change is that we include a non-greedy .* to skip over anything until it reaches "Max".

With that change (and the current content as at 9:30PM CST), I get:

var adeldesc = Fine and cool with increasing high cloud.  Moderate eas
+t to northeast winds.
var mtbkmax = "9"
var noarmax = "11"
var adelmax = "10"
var elizmax = "11"

Hi Darren, Thanks for the mod for the script, temps now show up. Sorry for being a pain...but how can I firstly: get the description being shown in "quotation marks" ? (html page shows errors if it doesn't have them)and secondarily: how do I get the script to write to /home/aml33704/public_html/ ? (Can't get the results to show unless outside cgi-bin) I am very grateful for your help! cheers, pip

"..get the description being shown in "quotation marks" ?"

Oh, I hadn't noticed that... you need to change line 46 to read:

my $out = qq(var adeldesc = "$adeldesc"\n);

The use of 'qq' allows us to use double-quotes within the string, and also ensures that the variables are correctly interpolated.

"how do I get the script to write to /home/aml33704/public_html/"

Well, you simply change the destination in the open statement to include the full path to the file. I'd do something like this:

my $outfile = '/home/aml33704/public_html/weather.js';
[download]

..and then:

open W, ">", $outfile or die "Could not open $outfile for writing:$!\n
+";
[download]

Cheers,
Darren :)

(By the way, which address do I mail my invoice to?) ;)
