Subject: no longer working..

As of 1/21/16 your most excellent tool stopped working, at least with my typical input. It worked yesterday with the same thing. I've gone to the yhoo weather page, but not sure how to feed those names back into your API. My typical usage was: my $yw = WWW::Weather::Yahoo->new( 'Boston, MA' , 'f'); ..etc. I also tried the zip code form,but no dice. Your output says something like: Nothing found. Check the city input. at /usr/local/share/perl5/WWW/Weather/Yahoo.pm line 45. Now i know websites can be hostile to scraping, but just in case there's an easy fix to either the code or my usage. I downloaded the latest (0.7?) to make sure. -brandon

I couldn't figure out how to update the bug, but in csae there's a human at this address.... Weather::Underground was a real easy replacement to use. -------------------------------------------- On Fri, 1/29/16, Slaven_Rezic via RT <bug-WWW-Weather-Yahoo@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Subject: [rt.cpan.org #111351] no longer working..
