Hi

Thanx for the reply.

I personaly do not like glade and prefer to use basic coding to complete
this desktop widget.

In the IRC node i was told that REST api can be used for this purpose.
Now i checked with REST api, eventhough i understood what it is still i am
in doubt. I know it returns an XML as an output.

But how can i integrate this with php-gtk? and how can I use the data in the
xml to dispaly on the widget window?

This is how i want the widget to work:

1. the cusomer selects a city or country name
2. He receives the weather forecast for that day and also for the next 2
days.

Now i know sites that offer these services using REST api.
(http://weather.weatherbug.com/)

I have seen the output and it displays an XML file.
(please check this link)

How can I use it in php-gtk and to display those results in a gtk window?

Please reply if you know the answer to it. I hope I am not asking too much.

thank you
with warm regards
Raisun
