There’s a few links I use to check out the local weather to me – chamonix meteo, meteo chamonix, HD web cams etc. So instead of the laborious(!) task of opening each site individually, I decided to make a mashup of the different sites and roll them into one. The result is weather.itsnotallwork.com.
The sites don’t have anything so useful as data feeds, so this employs a bit of hackery. First of all I get the page contents via my own web server. I then display them using jQuery – targeting the DOM node that I’m interested in.
NOTE: This works for me in Firefox, Safari and Chrome. I have no idea about IE as I don’t use it, and I built this site for me really! I suspect it does work though.
