Oops, I forgot it was the Android app, I read XML and my brain clicked over to the Silverlight real-time applet from Steve! Still your server is providing the data now, so time to look elsewhere for any remaining issues I think.

:D it happens.
This is the best forum for this Android app, I (with help of my computer geek friend) simply can't find what is going on.

Came across this little app while looking for games on the app store, promptly d/led it, but can I hell get the thing to work. All the files are uploaded ok as I can read them on the phone using the browser but the app can't :( Anyone have any idea as to why this may be happening maybe?

I downloaded it a few days ago, and after getting the right files in the right places, and the full path including file name into the URL settings, it works perfectly on my Motorola Razr.

I tried with your URL (and realtime.xml) and it works. But it simply don't work on my http://izo.amebis.si/realtime.xml.

I wonder if it is anything to do with the extended character set you are using for the accented characters in the forecast?

Got it working after a bit of messing about :mrgreen: . It seems that the program can't read through folder extension (seems strange) I was uploading my realtime.xml file to the weather folder and linking to it through jems-world.co.uk/weather/realtime.xml, thought to myself hangon try moving the xml file from the weather folder and place it root, so uploaded it then linked using jem-world.co.uk/realtime.xml and hey presto works go figure lol

I have file on root - http://izo.amebis.si/realtime.xml but it doesn't work.
But it is really interesting that someone can use my realtime.xml on their phone.
