Wanted: Flight status widget
Hubby tracking
Sunday, July 17, 2005 by binkerstons | Discussion: DesktopX
My husband flies all the time and it would be very nice if there was a simple widget that let me put in a few flight details and have it tell me the current status of the widget. I looked in the gallery and couldn't find any widgets like that. Has someone made one like this?

There is a Flight Tracker available in my widgets bundle pack here Link. Left-click the 'i', choose the airline from the drop-down menu and enter the flight number. Hit enter and then click the done button and it will display the infomation for you.

But in order to create such a widget there need to be a source of information. Do you know of any places that provides such data. HTML pages works, but XML is best.
