[quote]I tried Neophil78's solution, and obviously I'm doing something wrong, because the change did not fix the problem for me. I've never built anything in DesktopX, I really don't even know how to begin with it, so my personal answer to this dilemma is to cease using DesktopX. [/quote] Hi Karen, I understand you. However this little problem may not be a reason to uninstall DesktopX! Please send me by email (or just post here) the link to download your widget.
[quote]I do not know the law . . but I would not do such a thing becuae *I* believe it violate the spirit of teh license. weather.com is providing a service and deserves what they are asking for.

Hey Friends, Seems we can't use TWC feeds without showing their logo. By the way I don't like how it looks and don't want see it each time in my gadget. However I have one little thought... Who forbids us to retrieve the same data directly from the web page through HTML? Does anyone can tell me is this a violation of TWC Copyright or not? For example we open the web page in our browser to read the weather data and all is okay. But we can open the same page through
[quote]just going through my collection I've encountered 3 different versions.[/quote] This is one more argument that only the authors of widgets must fix this issue in their scripts and the upload an update. So it may be a tutorial for widget developers but not for end users!
[quote]Any way seams that only US residents can get an ID/key , I have register and I can’t get any ID/key or put an European city!!![/quote] No any problems. Just send me one of your widgets which you want to modify. Or a link where I can download it and I'll help you to solve this little problem. I'm live in Europe too and I'm a big Internationalist.

[quote]This is not an Stardock issue in any way. It comes from users creating weather widgets all based on the same code (by another user) that calls weather.com without a parnet ID and key.[/quote] I Agree. That problem must be solved only by the authors of these widgets (certainly if they have a free time or just desire to do this). Besides it should not be forgotten - all of these widgets was FREE OF CHARGE . So I think you have no rights to submit any

[quote] So If I understand you correctly Vad_M,everyone has to have an end user license to use these widgets? Or just the widget creators? [/quote] First of all the registration is free. So I don't see any problems to get it. Then I'm not sure that the widget creator have a rights to use (share) his (or her) Partner ID and License Key . However I know how to help with this. We just need to add one more simple suroutine into th
I'm not sure about LOGO. Why do we need to see it every day if we will use the widgets only on our own, Personal Computers? So I think that our widgets are not violate any paragraphs of TWC user licensing agreement. But there is one problem that I'm really seeing... How the thousands of WC members/visitors which already downloaded the Weather Widgets will correct their scripts? Seems we must to ask sVis make a special tutorial whic

It's very easy: http://registration.weather.com/ursa/xmloap/step1 [e digicons]:blush:[/e]
Finaly! The weather.com have blocked their service for unregistered users. This is just a result of using unlicensed rss feeds and of reluctance to learn coding as well... I've found this problem yesterday and already solved it. The changes in my script is more serious than you'll see below. But we must respect the Copyright so I will show you only the legal way to get the weather data here.

YES!!! [e digicons]8O[/e] Now I understood. You are absolutely right! [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] This is known issue. I just use these controls by totally different ways which excludes any bugs with hide/unhide ActiveX (or DX) objects. I solved this problem by using simple timer that works until all of the necessary objects become visible, "ontop" and "in the focus". Then the timer is stopping and run
[quote]You didn't try ActiveX controls[/quote] Hmmmm.... There are a list of controls that I tested: MS TreeView 6.0 , MS ListView 6.0 , MS ImageList 6.0 , DX PushButton , DX CheckBox , DX EditBox , DX ListBox and DX ComboBox . All works! [e digicons]:)[/e]
