Tuesday, January 10, 2006 by x Vixen x | Discussion: New Users
sorry if this seems really obvious to everyone but i'm stuck, plz help...
i have got a widget to display weather forcasts but although it seems to be working i can't set it for where i am; in fact i cant get it set up for the uk at all. i live in lancaster, uk and can get the weather forcast from uk.weather.yahoo.com but cant get the widget to work with this.
please help, thanks -x-

If you give us a link to the widget you're using, perhaps someone can figure out what's going wrong.

UKXX0581 works here, using that widget. The problem must be on your end. Do you have a firewall blocking the connection?

no neither setting it to allow the connection, nor disabling it altogether works. so not a firewall problem
