HTC Home Weather Startpage

[petervbeck]

Hi all....
i've got a small question: Is it possible to change the startpage in the HTC Home Weather-Plugin to the weekly preview ? When you first come to the weatherpage the first you can see is the current weather...and i think this is totally useless... when i want to know which weather is at the moment, then i can take a look outside the window :) But i couldn't find a regkey for this entry... Anybody got a solution ?

Thanks in advance,
Peter

Furthermore, I just moved from Berlin Germany to Southern California - and cannot find certain regions on this plug-in. Is is possible to add locations?

When you search the forum you can find many issues about that....I'm not sure but are you searching for something like this? I found this in this thread:

1. Visit AccuWeather.com - World Weather
2. Find your city and bring up its weather forecast in your browser.
3. Look at the URL and copy the location code from the end of the URL (will look something like locCode=OCN|AU|TAS|HOBART)
It should consist of 4 sections eg: OCN|AU|TAS|HOBART (Region|Country|State|City)
4. Go to the windows directory on your PPC
5. Copy the HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml to your desktop
6. Open in Notepad and insert an XML tag in to the list.
For Hobart, it would look like this:
Code:

<city name="Hobart, AU" locationcode="OCN|AU|TAS|HOBART"/>

7. Make sure that the tag starts with a < and ends with a />
8. Replace the file in your windows directory
