Weather "Objects"
Can't get any of them to work
Thursday, April 28, 2005 by MBMANIE | Discussion: Internet
I have six of these "objects" and can't get any of them to work. I have tried a couple of different internet connections also with no luck. However, the "CURRENCY" converter and the stock quote objects/widgets both work fine with no problem. I have turned off my firewall, tried at LAN connection that has proxy set via IE, and at LAN connection that is just plain open and no luck.
Let's not even ask about whether I have rebooted.
I have used a good 12 different ZIP codes (all USA), and keyed in a few CITY/STATE combos with no luck.
I am running KLIPFOLIO and it has no problem access its weather "KLIPS". I don't know that the mechanism is the same or not.
I have tried with the DESKTOP loaded and without (for a widget anyway).
What setup am I missing?
