Motoï : OtenkiJP

I wish you'll understand my FUNNY English...English?... it could be Japanese English, Janglish!!


[Screen shots]

The basic structure of this gadget is same as that of "MétéoFR2". You can only know the weather information of today and tomorrow. That's all. So simple.


You can chose one major city from the list. Msn météo selected this list. That is to say, I never chose those cities.

Cities are listed in the alphabetical sort. You chose one city as you want and press "OK", then the weather information is updated. When you don't change the city (or you only see the city name or something), you have to press "cancel". This operation is same as "MétéoFR" and "MétéoFR2".


[Tips]
If you want to change the background graphic, you only revise "images/OtenkiJPbg.png". The pixel size is H: 130 px x V: 170 px.



[Environment]
I use "Windows Vista Home Premium (32bit Japanese version)" and develop with it. There is no special customize, so that you can use this sidebar gadget, if you can see the following web site with Internet Explorer or another web browser,
MSN Météo(http://meteo.msn.com/).
If this gadget does not work, the RSS feed would be changed. At this moment, I would like to revise the gadget... maybe.
When you open the setting property window and close it, this gadget try to reload the data from msn météo. You can do this instead of reload the data, I think.

[Comment]
This "OtenkiJP" gadget only provides you the weather information of Japan. "O-tenki" means the weather in Japanese.
This gadget uses msn France (maybe?) site, even though the information is represented in English and the covered area is only Japan...
