In a webbrowser control you can navigate to any website or display HTML by navigating to "about:blank" as URL and then set document body to your HTML.

How? You insert an OLE control on the form. A dialog pops up asking what OLE control and you pick Microsoft Web Browser

Then you can do:

You first need to find a service that will give you a weather feed. There are many of these around the world. Some are free, others demand a fee.

To get you started, here a couple of possibilities, both of which I have investigated in the past:


In general, it doesn't matter what country the site is situated in. They nearly all give forecasts for almost every country in the world.

Once you have decided on a service, you will need to find out what format they use for their feed. Usually this will be an XML file. VFP has tools to convert XML to FoxPro tables. But we can't give you any specific advice or sample code at this stage, because each service will have its own way of formatting its data. Usually, this will be documented on the site.

Your best bet is to decide which service you want to use, then find out as much as you can about the format of their data. If necessary, download a sample. After that, if you are still stuck, come back here for specific advice.
