I am curious where the acronym wz comes from. The acronym widely used in the weather field for weather is wx.

Just curious. Thank you for the script. rodjavascript:emoticon(' Confused

'wz' is not an acronym, it was most likely chosen so the trigger did not conflict with any other script

the script allows you to change it to anything you want

Maybe a contraction. Meteo also uses wz. I could just never figure out why.

I like and use your script. Thanks for the effort you put into it. rodb

If I'm not mistaken is used to stand for "weather zone" and was coined by a popular weather script.
But I could be wrong! Razz

How do I set the language of query results? There is estonian at the webpage: http://www.wunderground.com/global/EE.html

DragnLord · Posted: Sat Jan 07, 2006 2:57 pm Post subject: language

Currently, the only way is to edit the script.

The next release may include a way to change the language (if I remember).
