Now I have what I need: location city="Bethel Park" region="PA" country="United States" units temperature="F" distance="mi" pressure="in" wind chill="21" direction="250" speed="10" atmosphere humidity="51" visibility="10" pressure="30.04" astronomy sunrise="7:39 am" sunset="4:58 pm" condition text="Cloudy" code="26" temp="30" forecast day="Tue" date="28 Dec 2010" low="22" forecast day="Wed" date="29 Dec 2010" low="25" Now I can do something with this data. Thanks so much Craig and everyone else for the suggestions. -- Tom McGrath III http://lazyriver.on-rev.com 3mcgr...@comcast.net On Dec 28, 2010, at 6:42 PM, dunb...@aol.com wrote: > I see that more items need to be extracted in some lines.
