It's not working, i get the same looping error.
tell application "IndigoServer"
exists variable "AWRefreshRate"
false
setVariable("AWRefreshRate", 600)
log "AccuWeather loop time out ocured" using type "AccuWeather"
exists variable "AWRefreshRate"
false
setVariable("AWRefreshRate", 600)
log "AccuWeather loop time out ocured" using type "AccuWeather"
exists variable "AWRefreshRate"
false
setVariable("AWRefreshRate", 600)
log "AccuWeather loop time out ocured" using type "AccuWeather"
exists variable "AWRefreshRate"
false


and goes on for ever

It looks like the script is not able to define the variable "AWRefreshRate".
Can you try defining this variable yourself so it is available in Indigo?
Maybe that helps.

Just to eliminate human error, can ou giva me a step by step how to use your script, maybe i am creating the problem!

How would like to try to define the "AWRefreshRate"?

Go to the Window menu
Choose Variable List
Click on the New... button
Enter AWRefreshRate as the name
Enter 600 as the value
Click OK

That should do the trick.

But I'm very curious why it's not working automagically as it's supposed to be.
Where there any parts during installation/configuration that you found difficult or that ended up different than what you expected?

Now works!

Thanks. No there was not any problem in particular

I think I found the problem. Try adding a my before calling the setVariable() function:

Code: Select all

if not (variable "AWRefreshRate" exists) then
   setVariable("AWRefreshRate", 600)
end if

to this:

Code: Select all

if not (variable "AWRefreshRate" exists) then
   my setVariable("AWRefreshRate", 600)
end if

You can then delete the AWRefreshRate variable and it should get automagically added without any problems.

It seems to work!

When I paster the new piece of code after the extra filed list, the code won't compile due to the name used. What did I do wrong?

here the pasted text
--getItem(theAirAndPollen, "Mold", "")
--getItem(theAirAndPollen, "AirQuality", "")
--getItem(theAirAndPollen, "AirQualityType", "")


-- ===== End of user choosen extra fields ===== --

-- Only enable this portion when the WeatherIcon is used
set theIcon to value of variable "AWWeatherIcon"
set i to 1
repeat while i < 45
  if i < 10 then
    set num to "0" & (i as string)
  else
    set num to (i as string)
  end if
  setVariable("AWI" & num, theIcon = num)
  set i to i + 1
end repeat


The compiler is pointing to the " before AWWeatherIcon

THanks for any help

The code looks good to me.

There's an e-mail address at the start of the script.
If you can send your complete script to that address, I'll try to reproduce the problem here.

In the code sample posted here, I forgot the "tell - end tell" lines.
Fetching the variable value should be done as follows:

Code: Select all

-- Only enable this portion when the WeatherIcon is used
tell application "IndigoServer"
  set theIcon to value of variable "AWWeatherIcon"
end tell
...

Now your code will compile.

I am trying to install the AccuWeather Attachment 1.5. When I get to the step where I drag Weather.html to my Safari icon, I get the following error message:

file:///Library/Widgets/Weather.wdgt/null

Is it possible that the installation method is not compatible with Safari 3.1?

That's strange. It indeed is not working anymore.
Do you happen to have a Tiger Mac where you can try this?

Another thing that might work is this, but you need to have the developer tools installed to get it work:

Configure the Weather widget so it shows temperature info for the area you're interested in.

Open your hard disk and navigate to Library>Preferences in your home folder.
Open the file "widget-com.apple.widget.weather.plist" by double-clicking it. This will open the property list editor so you can read the contents.
Click on the triangle next to Root to show all entries.
Copy the contents for the "<number>-postal" entry.

Paste this in the Accuweather Script where you will now find the zipcode for Cuppertino.
So the result should like something like:

http://apple.accuweather.com/adcbin/app ... p?zipcode=<whatever>

Hope this helps.

Yes, you're right that it's broken in Leopard. I tried it on a Tiger machine and I no longer get the error. However, I am still not able to extract the information I need from the Safari Activity window. I see the Cupertino information, but not my local settings even though my Weather widget is configured to show the local weather. Perhaps this is because I am using a Canadian location, which does not use a ZIP code lookup?

I installed the developer tools, then the procedure described above worked great. Many thanks!

Mine isnt working. No errors, and on the same time no new variables and the AWRefreshRate isnt counting at all.

What could this be ?
