Id like to include a Temperature reading from another Website onto one im creating.

Just how do you go about this using Frontpage 2003.

Thanks

674198 2008-05-31 06:06:00 Is there a name/web link near the temperature reading, if so, you might be able to get one yourself. Otherwise, view the source code of that site (e.g. view - source code for Firefox on the menu bar) and have a look at the code for the temperature program/widget to see if it links to a server. It might display the name of a web company that supplies such a widget, which you may be able to obtain...

Whats the name or url of the site?

Perhaps check out Google Gadgets (desktop.google.com) for a similar widget (need Gmail account) to embed in your web site...

Here is the website I want to copy the current Temp from.

www.cityofdunedin.com

Any idea what the referance would be?

What then, do i simply copy that link in the Frontpage program at the l;ocation I want to show the temp?

:-)
