Hey all! I've been playing around with this and it's been a great help. I essentially have it working.... but have run into a weird bug. It started by me checking on weather for a few different cities. Chicago, IL worked, Moscow, Russia, yes, and many others. When I tried any city in france, it returned an error (threw the exception). This is puzzling. I haven't gotten into it yet, but was wondering if anyone else noticed it. Otherwise great tutorial. Would be curious if anyone had any ideas. Thanks, Mark

After further investigation, it looks like it's for any city that returns a special character in the name, so yes, most cities in France, and some in Germany with umlauts, etc...

Any ideas on how to work around this issue?

Thanks,
Mark

Great tutorial. Thanks a lot.
It is a difficult tutorial for me, but I learn, I learn ... ;)
I want an activity with weather, but I don't want that the user have the choice of the town.
I want the weather of the city Paris only.
I have test it, but there are few mistakes :(
I have change in WeatherForecast.class
URL url;
try {
String queryString = "http://www.google.com/ig/api?weather=Paris,France";
/* Replace blanks with HTML-Equivalent. */
url = new URL(queryString.replace(" ", "%20"));

But it is not so easy :?
Someone could help me ?
