The first is that the icon is very small, but it's workable for me at the moment - though it may be worth eventually looking into it.

The second is that I'm not getting the Conditions being displayed.
Here is an example of my output:
Code:
Current: -3
Conditions: Light Snow
High: -2
Low: -3
Image: /tmp/ywtemp.png
Anyone spot the obvious thing I must be missing?

Okay, I'm an idiot, I didn't unquote the Conditions settings in the ini file.

So though this still needs work, here's the UKMO version of the script:

Code:

#!/bin/sh
#Arguments:
# 1 = Place id - from ukmo website
# 2 = output dir

url="http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/mobile/"

# Your default location here, take it from the Met Office mobile
# website.
id=${2-"XXXXXX"}
out=${3-"/tmp"}


post="forecastid=$id"

# Get info for day
wget --user-agent=""  -q -t 1 -T 10 --post-data="$post" -O "$out/ywtemp.htm" "${url}5dayforecastdetail" || { exit 1; }

curday=`date "+%a %d %b %y"`

eval `awk '
                BEGIN       { use = 0 }
                /.h2.'"$curday"'..h2./ { use = 1 }
                use == 1 && /weathervalues/ { sub("^.*>Temperature: ",""); 
                                               sub("&nbsp.*\\\(", " "); 
                                               sub("&nbsp.*$", ""); 
                                               high=$1; low=$2; exit }
                END        { printf("high=\"%s\" low=\"%s\"", high, low)}' "$out/ywtemp.htm"
`

# Get info specific to time of day
curtime=`date +%H`00
if [ $curtime -lt 1200 ]; then
        curtime=0900
elif [ $curtime -ge 1200 ] && [ $curtime -lt 1500 ]; then
        curtime=1200
elif [ $curtime -ge 1500 ] && [ $curtime -lt 1800 ]; then
        curtime=1500
elif [ $curtime -ge 1800 ] && [ $curtime -lt 2100 ]; then
        curtime=1800
elif [ $curtime -gt 2100 ]; then
        curtime=2100
fi

curday=`date "+%a %d %b %y" | sed 's/ /%20/g'`

post="forecastid=$id&detail=$curday"

wget --user-agent=""  -q -t 1 -T 10 --post-data="$post" -O "$out/ywtemp.htm" "${url}5dayforecastdetail" || { exit 1; }

eval `awk '
                BEGIN       { use = 0 }
                /Time: '$curtime'/ { use = 1 }
                use == 1 && /img/ { sub("^.*src=", ""); sub(" alt.*$", ""); img=$0 }
                use == 1 && /weathervalues/ { 
                                        sub("^.*weathervalues\">", "")
                                        sub("&nbsp.*$", "")
                                        sub("<br/>Temperature: ","\" temp=\"") 
                                        wx=$0
                                        exit 
                                 }
                END        { printf("icon=\"%s\" conditions=\"%s\"", img, wx)}' "$out/ywtemp.htm"
`

wget --user-agent="" -q -t 1 -T 10 -O "$out/ywtemp.gif" "${url}${icon}" || { exit 1; }

echo "Current: "$temp
echo "Conditions: "$conditions
echo "High: "$high
echo "Low: "$low
echo "Image: $out/ywtemp.png"

NB I've put it in code tags, but think there may still be some formatting issues.
