[QUOTE="doug, post: 754712, member: 107195"] Hi, Inspired by a plugin that displays weather from the BBC, I'm looking at developing a plugin to display weather from the Environment Canada website. I don't have access to the underlying database or data they use, so from what I can see, the easiest thing for me to do is simply scrape a portion of the desired page (allowed by their terms of use) and display it in MP. Can MP render HTML or is there some plugin that does this? Or do I have to parse the HTML do extract the portion I want and then display in MP? Or perhaps is there an easier way to approach this. Thanks, Doug [/QUOTE]
