And still have 2 [Variables] sections, so the second is ignored... I meant to say combine them into 1 section.

Here is a corrected code

@ brinkeguthrie

Yes...
When you change the 'WeatherCode' variable to equal your WOEID code, 12797313 the skin will use that to show you the temperatures for Contra Costa.

The comment about Milan was just there to tell you what I had preset in my example.

If there is a string meter for the city name, you can manually change the 'Text' to your location, or use StringIndex=6 in a new weather child measure, to return the city name the webparser finds. Then use that measure in the string meter for the city name.

No bother, but I am not sure what is the solution is to your connection issue. :?

What version of Internet Explorer do you have on your system?
What system of Windows are you running?
Do you have the latest updates to Windows installed?
What version of Rainmeter are you running?
Do other Weather skins or any other skins using webparser give you the same errors?

Knowing these things might help in finding some answers. Since it is working here, I might not be of much help. :confused:

Try adding DynamicWindowSize=1 to the [Rainmeter] section of the skin.

I had this situation with a proxy server, when the provider had to change something in its database. Later, the problem disappeared by itself.
