I had the same trouble until I figured out that I didn't need the numeric number for metar. Just remove the (metarcode) at the end of the http address and enter your airport code, without the brackets. For example: Use the 4 letter code you use on your luggage.
Hope this helps.
Now can anyone tell me how to get the cpu temp to work?

tnx, patrj, already figured out. important thing is using capitals it seems.. About temp: important that you set MBM up with correct combinations. e.g. for me that is sensor 1 together with winbond 1.

Go to this address and choose your airport location. You will see 4 letters in bold and in brackets. Now put those same letters, not including brackets () and put them at the end of the http address in the weather config field. But remember to remove the (metarcode. ie at the end of cccc=

I foun the IACO letters and I placed them in the Metarcode box and it works great. I left the http address alone. Now I just have to figure out MBM 5.

This app just gets better and better. Thanks for the 12 hr/24 hr fix. Looks like you added quite a few new bells and whistles with this release. Looks great... Thanks Xymantix!!

Same here....beta testing means you make a mule to try things...but not necessarily worth publishing...

OK I tried what people suggested to get the weather to work. Still not working, this is the error message. I am trying for Victoria BC CYJJ. Parsing Error - Incompatible Data Format: HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Server: Apache/1.3.27 (Unix) mod_perl/1.27
Connection: close

Then a rather long error report, it appears to be a script error. I tried the default url. Same error
