Weather docklet

I want the weather in MY location!

Thursday, October 5, 2006 by BallisticD | Discussion: ObjectDock

How do I get the weather docklet to display the weather in my location and not nort america. I live in Sweden, but there's only a Zip-code field for the US.

Help please.

Go to weather.com, enter your city in the search field. Select your city on the following page. Look in the address field, and copy the code that looks like this SWXX003 (this is for Stockholm). Paste that code in the the weather docklet field that says "Enter a zip or COUNTRY code".

When I type the code for Stockholm, Sweden in the "Enter zip or country code"-field I get N/A in the weather docklet. But when I type the code in the search field on weather.com I get stockholm - so it's no wrong with the code. But how do I get it to work and how do I get the weather info in a Single city or province in Stockholm?

It's probably something on my end......... the link works, but after waiting 4 to 5 minutes I still don't see anything on the page.
