I want to add the current weather of my area to my website. I have found some sites that offer free services for this but I don't like their look. I want to be able to grab the weather condition for my area with a javascript or something and display it in a DIV that I can style with CSS. It would have current temp, hi, lo, condition/image, simular to the dashboard weather widget when it is collapsed. I've already set up the DIVs to place the info in, but am stuck with how to get the info and how to display it. I'm very new to javascript, PHP.

Could anyone help?

Thanks ryanbutler for the reply.

I've checked them out already but I want something more simpler. I have a small space on the upper right of the page that I want to place the weather info in - 120px x 40px, and what they offer is too big. I want to be able to grab their info and display it in my style.

A quick Google search yielded this:

Or use a search query such as "display weather on personal web pages"

I've checked them out as well but I want to get the information with a javascript (temp, hi, lo, condition) and display them on my site in a DIV styled with my own CSS and not a site's predefined template.
